I don't know how you can take a look at all of those past comments from McGowan and just be like "yep she was totally in the right yup". Even if she had a right to remove the other woman from her event, the comments she used "what have you done for women" "I'm not from your planet" are pretty exclusionary and deserve critique.
But what I'm not gonna do is sit here and tell trans folk the way she went about that is or isn't transphobic. Rose can be a victim in her own lived experience but that doesn't mean she can't do victimizing and harmful stuff herself. That doesn't mean you need to throw her away but if you aren't willing to engage with the critiques, especially from trans folk, in a way that's just you constantly defending your or Rose's trying to be "right". Yes, the woman in the crowd might have escalated to the point where it was disruptive, but how Rose responded to that doesn't sit right with me when you take into context all of the other things she's said about trans people
Comments like these make people want to say "fuck you being an ally then"
If I had a dime every time a white person went "how do they expect us(black people) to support them when they act like this?!?", id have enough to retire.
If your support is contingent upon being made to feel good, then you probably weren't truly interested in supporting. You don't use your privileged status as a bludgeon when people of the less privileged class get angry at you.
These are some really good posts on the subject at hand, and I'd encourage everyone to read these over.
