Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Graham Linehan" in English language version.
This online transphobia has been spearheaded by former comedy writer Graham Lineham [sic], who took to the 'gender critical' movement after an episode of his television show The IT Crowd was criticised for its offensive portrayal of a trans woman, and has since been warned by the police for his harassment campaigns. Lineham [sic] and Mumsnet's war deluged the funder of trans charity Mermaids, The National Lottery, with so many complaints that Mermaids had its funding reviewed and threatened (it was ultimately not revoked).
The opposition is so extreme and so frightening that eventually everyone is asking you to stop. My feeling is that I can't, because it's too important. It's too important to the women in my life and it's too important to me. I'm now in a position where I can answer the question honestly of, if you were around at the time of something terrible happening like Nazism, or whatever it happened to be, would you be one of the people who said "no, this is wrong", despite being opposed? I feel happy in myself that I've been one of the people standing up and saying "no, this is wrong", despite everyone telling me not to do it.
