I crit!
I consider him a privleged bully, and stubborn, and unable to accept when he’s wrong.First off, I would really hope that pointing out transphobia in a public figure would not be against the rules of this forum. We shouldn't accuse other posters; that's what reporting is for.
Secondly, he got himself banned from forums for being an acerbic naughty word-hole, which is absolutely true.
Third, outside of refusing for multiple years to update his website, he has consistently referred to Jennell by her proper name and pronouns, and has appropriately called out other people for their transphobia (especially the pushback he got from saying okay when she finally reached out to him).
He's not a transphobe, full stop. But, not being a transphobe does not mean that you cannot be, at times, transphobic, and Justin certainly has been (and is currently doubling down on it). He's still not denying Jennell's identity. He's not parroting the openly transphobic garbage that suffuses the fetid swamps of Twitter. But he's handled this poorly, back in the day, and he's handling it poorly now.
After all it took Jennell her self reaching out to him personally to stop his prior shenanigans.
