The problem is, the narrative didn't fit the facts.
The Narrative is this evil Trans kid snuck into a bathroom and raped this defenseless girl, because the evil school had a trans bathroom policy. .
The reality is that he wasn't trans, he sometimes wore a skirt to be edgy. He and the girl had a sexual relationship, had met up in that bathroom on two previous occasions to have consensual sex, and this time, she didn't want to, even though she had made arrangements to meet him there at that time, and went into the handicapped stall with him.
Now, yes, "no means no", blah, blah, blah, feminist propaganda. But realistically- it wasn't what you guys painted it as. And Crazy Dad starting fights at a school board because his daughter was the Village Bicycle isn't a great cause.
