Joking about political figures isn't hate speech.

Just because it's about a political figure doesn't make something not hate speech.

If someone drops an n-word at a state rep, does it become not hate speech? The answer is (obviously) that hate speech is still hate speech.

Who said it was?

They're referring to a Babylon Bee article where they misgender a trans public figure repeatedly.

It's the tweet that got the Bee suspended from twitter because they refused to delete it.

It was a satire on USA Today naming Levine as one of their Women Of The Year.

This isn't hate speech, just social commentary on organizations giving awards and accolades reserved for women to men who want to be women.

The right is incredibly fucked up today. See this article: https://unherd.com/thepost/was-the-fake-boobs-teacher-a-hoax...

Seems highly unlikely this is a satirical protest.

More probably it's just a man bringing his fetish to work and expecting everyone to comply, as is the zeitgeist of today.

Of course you say that, nevermind the evidence saying otherwise!

An anonymous comment on 4chan is not evidence of anything.

Do you really believe this is anything other than the usual trolling that goes on over there: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FdXO_XkXgAsIMFy?format=jpg&name=...
