Irish TERF Graham Linehan has been f*cking around for quite some time, and he might have just found out.
After years of going on talk shows to fearmonger and dedicating an entire Substack to the trans menace, Linehan’s antics have finally gotten him slapped with harassment.

If you’re going to come for an A-list actor, pretending he’s not famous isn’t the way to go about it.
Linehan told his side of the story on X over the weekend. It would seem that at last year’s Battle of Ideas Festival, Linehan (by his own admission) “threw away” the phone of a trans activist taking Linehan to task for his anti-trans views. From video footage of the event, it would appear that a trans activist who tried to record certain TERFs at the festival (namely Linehan and Julie Bindel) ended up in an altercation with Linehan, resulting in a criminal damage charge for the latter.
Linehan has previously blamed trans people for everything from trying to erase homosexuality to causing the breakup of his marriage. But aligning with anti-trans feminists is a fine way to dig one’s own grave, without any participation needed from trans people.
