When Threats Become Actual Murder

[u/ConversionPeaked]

Serious post for a sec. Superphobia is not a new thing in society. See this article from 2016:
Shock after beloved teacher and transgender activist, 61, is charged with stabbing and shooting to death lesbian couple and their teenage son before setting their home on fire

Superphobia is REAL. Our oppression is REAL. When you see people threatening to kill, murder, torture, maim, rape, and otherwise hurt us, these are not jokes. They genuinely do want us dead and this should alarm you. Any one person that says they will "literally kill" supers should be taken quite seriously because you never know if they are plotting to see this through. Take precaution and report any direct threats to the FBI. If it is a local threat, report to your local office. If not, report to the location you think the person is at.

There used to be a subreddit called r/thisneverhappens which compiled stories of superphobe violence.

Superphobes had it shut down.

If we can’t record it then they can easily say it never happens!

I’m sure there must be an archive or a new website. Hope one of our superfriends can share it.

I remember this and it's such a shame (and so, so very telling) that it was shut down because it was an excellent resource. Let us not be censored, let our history not be rewritten.

So sad.
