An employee called a co-worker by the wrong gender pronoun—then received a death threat

interesting how the title of the article was changed to “received a death threat” instead of the more active language of what actually happened included in the link – was threatened with a knife. if misgendering (even unintentional, non-malicious misgendering) is violence, this woman deserved to have a male coworker wielding a knife tell her “I’m going to kill you for calling me he.” does that sound right to you, really?

the fucking coddling that the company is doing. theyre going out of their way to defend a deranged man wielding a knife. 

also, this part really fucking annoyed me:

“luckily, the death threat occurred around 6pm, when there weren’t any customers in the story” HOW IS THAT FUCKING LUCKY FOR THE VICTIM? LIKE SERIOUSLY? HOW IN ANY WAY IS THAT LUCKY?

“Luckily, no one was around to witness a women nearly being murdered with a knife, because good heavens, wouldn’t that be embarrassing! Thankfully she had the decency to almost get stabbed in private, like a respectable lady should!”
