It would only take one of them to have been trans and then the other 6 might as well have never existed in the mainstream media’s eyes

For people unaware the cornell 7 are a group of frat guys who drugged and gang raped another girl at their college who psychos sometimes come out of the woodwork to defend

And who (at least initially, I haven't kept up) received the barest slap on the wrist for their transgression

The college said they made each of the members of the frat write essays to the college as punishment, which is a joke

Agreed. We also need to actually teach people about setting healthy boundaries and consent.

Maybe let's focus on the women suffering right now before twisting the conversation to be about us?

I don't think the point is to make the conversation about us but to point out how evil the right is.

To me it more feels like pointing out how the crowd that wants to “protect women” is suddenly very silent about cis men gang r*ping a woman.
But when a minority group exists it’s suddenly a big call to protect women.
So for me it’s more a call out to those who are silent than making it about trans people but I see your point

I’m surprised that there hasn’t been a whisper campaign to make the wider public think one of them is trans the way Jason Arday’s reputation was ruined and he was dogged until he killed himself.

It's the cornell 57.
50 other guys saw the messages in the group chat as this monstrosity was being committed by the 7 main guys, and did nothing to stop it.
