Sam Nordquist was tortured for about a month before he was murdered. I’m sure he would have preferred a more quick shot in the neck.
They didn’t bother with hate crime charges, despite the fact that he was clearly targeted as a transgender man. Did he get the flag at half mast? I’m sure he was a much kinder man than Charlie Kirk.
What the FUCK. How have I heard nothing about this?! Holy shit.
The media landscape minimized it and deemphasized him as a human being. Lots of outlets wouldn’t even call him a man.
A straight white Nazi is someone who matters. A biracial trans man doesn’t.
