    You’d benefit from doing some research on Isabel Fall.

    That sounds interesting and I want to look into it.
    Reading the Wikipedia page I want to ask, what part of it specifically are you referring to?
    The story itself, or the authors health in response to the criticism?

      I’m referring to a trans person using the attack helicopter slur as an act of empowerment and reclamation, and getting turned on by the community for it.

      The point being that she looked like a troll to many people, and was attacked for it, but she was not a troll, and the over the top response did more damage than any troll could have done.
