"LGBTQ+ researchers and advocates have also noted an increase in threats of violence and hate speech targeted at LGBTQ+ individuals and communities, ever increasingly with the intention of stifling trans rights and canceling drag events." https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/06/around-world-threats-lgbtq-speech-deepen

"Children can learn to take advantage of other children, and child sexual abuse is one form of that. Bullying is another, albeit more common, form. We have normalized cruelty, and we must change how we treat one another." https://prostasia.org/blog/fear-and-abuse/

"The digital rights community has observed an uptick in censorship of LGBTQ+ websites as well as troubling attempts by several countries to pass explicitly anti-LGBTQ+ bills restricting freedom of expression and privacy" https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/06/around-world-threats-lgbtq-speech-deepen

"When you dig far enough into the data, you realize that any data supporting the idea of dangerous minorities is, of course, the very same fearful exploitation. Because they’re hated, they are targeted by police, legislators, and the dominant group." https://prostasia.org/blog/fear-and-abuse/

"It is common in abuse statistics for minorities to be overrepresented. In other words, minorities are particularly vulnerable, and trans people are no exception." https://prostasia.org/blog/fear-and-abuse/
