We have been fed a fake narrative on violence against trans people. The average adult in England and Wales has a 1-in-100,000 chance of being murdered. The average trans person has a 1-in-200,000 to 1-in-500,000 chance. It’s actually SAFER to be trans. (thecritic.co.uk)

Lol seriously? It's just a short way of saying, "more than average based on population size" and just because left tards commonly use it in the context of lying about systemic racism doesn't mean the word itself is political.

Jesus, it's not "problematic" or some other useless bullshit word, it's still a useful word for concisely discussing statistics.

Stand your damn ground and stop giving them useful things for free.

Problematic is a word that's rich with irony. When you can deploy their own language against them, it's really satisfying.

We already had a just as simple a way to discuss those before "problematic" came along, you just said those things were "a problem" or "an issue". The early adopters were just pretentious cunts for whom the intellectual peak of "NPR midwit" was a distant aspiration, who were searching for a way to add a thin veneer of sophistry to their constant complaining, and then in the later adopters there were also heedless followers just copying what everyone else was doing without questioning why we're adding pointless extra letters to an already serviceable word.

To replace disproportionate there is no commonly understood single word alternative, you'd need to say "different to their proportion of the population", which is a hell of a fucking mouthful to go through every time just because some assholes once used it to misrepresent the truth.

Trans people are disproportionally over represented in the media

Responses to physical attacks should be disproportionately greater.
