The aftermath of that Trans Pride march, from the Telegraph:

London Trans Pride has defended a convicted kidnapper who called for protesters to “punch” gender critical people “in the f—— face.”

Sarah Jane Baker, a trans activist who campaigns on behalf of trans prisoners, addressed attendees at the march on Saturday.

She was released from prison three years ago after serving 30 years for the kidnapping and attempted murder of her stepmother’s brother, and for attempting to kill another prisoner while incarcerated.

He also cut of his testicles and ate them while in prison. So…that's nice. Nothing odd there.

At the march on Saturday, Baker told a cheering crowd: “I was going to come here and be really fluffy, be really nice and be really lovely and queer and gay and laugh.

“But if you see a Terf, punch them in the f—— face.”…

The London Trans Pride speakers demonstrated at Wellington Arch in London’s Hyde Park Corner on Jul 8. There were 10 scheduled speakers of which Baker was not one, organisers said. She instead took to the stage during the “open-mic” portion of the event.

However, organisers said that while it does not condone violence, many speakers at the event “hold a lot of rage” which they “have the right to express” through words.

A London Trans Pride spokesman said: “Sarah and many others in our community hold a lot of rage and anger and they have the right to express that anger through their words.

“We do not condone violence, we do not back a call to arms for violence of any kind. We do condone righteous anger and the right to the free speech that was expressed yesterday. We have and will continue to march in peace.”

They're fine with it: just righteous anger. The same "righteous anger" you see every time women try to organise a meeting for themselves, as masked thugs shout and threaten. It's fine. The police are fine with it. Nothing to see here. It's only uppity women being threatened. Women who've never threatened violence themselves but, you know…they hold the wrong opinions, and need to be told what's what. If they don't shut up they'll be punched in the fucking face.

And people still see trans as this poor persecuted suffering minority, instead of the violent misogynist men's movement it so clearly is.
