    Millerey González, 32, was raped, had her hands, arms, and legs broken, then was thrown into a stream in a deep ravine to drown in Colombia on April 4

    Rather than helping, some witnesses recorded her on video trying in vain to escape the ravine and stream, which they later posted to social media.

    What in the actual fuck. You see someone struggling to not drown and you just fucking film it??

      Sandra also said she was prevented from entering the fast-moving stream.

      Sounds like the people who committed this were still around and threatening people.

      Or it could be as simple as not being able to climb down the ravine and help, if you don’t have rescue equipment.

    As the father of a trans person, this horrifies me in a way that’s impossible to describe.

    Mortifying. I feel so scared to exist. the idea of watching another being drown and choosing to not take action is horrid behavior.

    Next up on the shitshow of a news cycle we’ll see a headline like “President Frumph signed an executive order today to legalize the torture and murder of Trans people”

        Because he’s promoting similar hate and divisiveness here in the US. This is like arguing “What does Elon Musk have to do with Nazi Germany?”

        My bad. I didn’t read the article, and assumed it was US news. I still wouldn’t be suprised to see that headline
