The gender-rights organisations and the transgender community mark November 20 as the Transgender Day of Remembrance. The day is dedicated to victims of violence directed at trans persons. Even as there is a trickle of progressive developments, online hate continues to mount, particularly at a time when social media giant Twitter (rebranded as X) has gone slow on content moderation and has put blue ticks up for sale, allowing anyone with cash to amplify their voice. More often than not, it has resulted in erstwhile anonymous and fringe elements (read as trolls) becoming 'verified' users with increased reach for their hateful content — as India too has seen lately.
