"It began with a campaign by transgender activists to compel celebrities to put their ‘preferred pronouns’ in their Twitter bios – as way of normalising this practice by trans-identified and non-binary people"

It seems to be a common way for them to get the trans idealogy mainstream, if everyone on Twitter is using pronohns then less people will stop to question those appropriating whatever identity they think they can hijack.

Similar to when TRAs put pressure on companies to denounce alleged TERFs or to declare themselves pro-trans.

None of the people harassing her seem to realize that their own reputation and livelihood is hanging by a thread as well. The moment they do something that is considered the current faux pas, they'll be hounded like this too. And let's be honest, this is a likely scenario because we're all human and no one can properly keep up with all these ever changing rules. So when this inevitably happens to one of them they've got themselves to blame, since they helped normalize this behaviour in the first place.
