Several gender critical activists showed up to right-wing anti-trans protests at Wi Spa in Los Angeles, CA that took place on July 3rd.[1] At least one also attended a second round of protests organized by the same right-wing groups that took place on July 17th. Five have been identified and all five play active roles in the gender critical movement. Some have organized their own protests in the past.
The aim of this piece is to name which gender critical activists attended, give some background on who they are, describe what they did at the protests and how they’ve been describing the protests to other members of their movement. It will also note any connections these individuals have to the Right, including if they’ve been spreading right-wing media about the protests. Overall, gender critical activists’ actions and responses to the Wi Spa protests demonstrate their increasing alignment with the far-right.
