Wolfe and his fiancée, who witnessed the alleged assault, believe the attack was related to Wolfe being transgender, according to court documents.

      I wouldn’t say I was/am openly hostile, but I recognize that’s relative to what someone is used to so it may be that what I’ve written so far seems extremely hostile to you.

      I’d put it more along the lines of… critical? Some people think any criticism is hostile, and that’s a completely valid feeling; the downside of course is any time someone disagrees with you and points out why, you put up walls and refuse to learn.

      There’s obviously nothing I or you can do now to convince you that I wasn’t being hostile with that opening message, but just as obviously we think far less of each other after you’ve been shitty in return because you think it’s justified.

      I don’t suppose you lose anything from blocking me, a person who occasionally criticizes those who mischaracterize what I say, nor do I from blocking you, a person who likes to start arguments and then plug their ears as well as believes that criticism is fundamentally hostile enough to justify escalation; as they say, we have irreconcilable differences.

      In other words, you probably find me about as annoying as I find you.
