They threatened her child over a stupid Justin Bieber joke.

Her kid.

That's really fucked up, and if you don't think that Grey was justified in being turned off by that large contingent of tumblr, you need to stop, and think about what you'd do to anyone who threatened someone you're close to.

"Being turned off by (a) large contingent of tumblr" =/= "fearing and hating an entire subsection of humanity for the way they were born".

Either this was phrased tragically poorly and "transphobic" isn't what was meant, or no, no it isn't in anyway even remotely justified.

so it's okay to be transphobic if someone threatens your child?

No, but a couple of things,

1. is there actual proof that this turned incident made her transphobic, or is that just what ~tumblr is saying

2. she made a stupid joke, and get dogpiled to the extreme, with people threatening her, her family, her kid. They accused her of being transphobic and transmysoginist and a ton of other things.

now, if you made a stupid joke, and had a ton of people jump on you and threaten your family for it would you think "oh wow, they must have a point and I should stop" or "wow, they're overreacting" and in response do anything you can to get away from them, because they're a bunch of shitheads.

I am responding directly to the comment saying 'I can see why she'd be transphobic after someone threatened her kid' so

and thinking 'man they are overreacting' or 'man I did not deserve this response because of my ignorant joke' isn't even in the same universe as being transphobic so not sure why you're conflating the two

It's not okay but it's understandable. Humans tend to roll like that.
