Targeting someone, intentionally and repeatedly would be harassment (and possible hate crime, depending).
Rest easy, Skybird. The sky is not falling tonight either.

The problem seems to be two fold:
- compelled speach
- politication and then censorship of speach
For example should the state compel specific types of speach?
If a person has a factually correct opinion that there are two biological sexes for humans, should that person be allowed to state it?
If a person were to state on twitter that transwomen are biologically men, could they be arrested in say UK?
And this without going into what we should do with bad faith actors such as trans-athletes or the certain guy with the waxing request.
