What part of this is hateful, just out of curiosity? Not that I believe an actual gender critical woman posted this to begin with, obvious false flag is obvious. Still though, there's no "hate" there. Thinking someone isn't all that good looking is insulting, yes, however hateful it isn't. Maybe you're projecting. Do you hate people who aren't beautiful or brave or a certain sex?

Hate is insulting a group of people for no other reason whatsoever.
If somebody says "Women are all ugly cowards", wouldn't that be anti-woman? Couldn't you use it to infer that that person hates women?

Women have been called worse throughout history, so I wouldn't be too bothered. Nonetheless, the post doesn't say trans people are ugly cowards, it says they aren't stunning and brave. Stunning and brave are adjectives most normal people realize don't apply to them. So if someone said to a specific subset of women "you're not beautiful and brave" I would NOT take that to mean they hate women. It's insulting and not necessarily something that needs to be expressed, but I wouldn't call it hateful as the vast majority of people are not beautiful and brave, no matter who they are. If a subset of women insisted on being called beautiful and brave and stunning and took anything less than that to be "hateful", I would think they were being entitled and ridiculous. And if someone made a post like that as a response to said women demanding to be treated to such compliments I would think it was spot on. I don't like entitled, demanding people who expect everyone to compliment them.

Okay, you're right. "hateful" is a too strong word.
However, it is very much insulting, and definitely uncalled for. Additionally, while it may not have been posted by a GC user, the upvotes show their opinion towards it.
It's a stab that you're taking for absolutely no reason - even if it's just a prick to the finger.

It's definitely insulting and uncalled for. On reddit or twitter or other such pandering websites, you could run to mummy and daddy and get them banned, but in the real world adults have to deal with insults in other ways.

Yeah, like mocking people.
