Caitlyn Jenner is not happy with the LGBTQ community — at least judging by her tweet on Sunday, where she took aim at certain individuals who had been sending her death threats. The former Olympic champion took to Twitter to sound off on her frustration after having received a string of hate mail and nasty comments about her over the past week.
Jenner told her followers, “I have never received more death threats, death threats to my team, nasty hate mail than this week. It is all from the so called ‘inclusive’ lgbt community. I am so disgusted by the hateful individuals threatening my life for giving my opinions on news topics of the day.”

Some people in the comments section believe Jenner had annoyed the LGBT community after she criticized and misgendered a transgender TikTok star named Dylan Mulvaney, who recently met with President Joe Biden to speak about trans-related healthcare. Mulvaney then went viral with a video where she said she wanted to “normalize women having bulges,” as he complained about constantly being looked at by strangers whenever she wears tight clothing.
Jenner, who came out as a trans woman in April 2015, before going on to announce her name (formerly Bruce) in July of that same year. The father-of-six, who is currently working as a Fox News contributor, then continued with another tweet, writing, “Since when is a different opinion grounds for such hatred and death wishes? Do better!”
“Difference of opinion, dialogue, and conversation is critical to making progress as society,” Jenner added. “Trying to shut me down by threatening my life over and over will never stop me from speaking my opinion. NEVER!”
Jenner didn’t shy away from letting her opinion be heard, stressing that as a trans woman herself, she did not co-sign the message, nor would she wants Mulvaney’s impressionable fans to think her behavior was okay. She went on to praise Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn, who claimed that Biden “and radical left-wing lunatics want to make this absurdity normal.”

Jenner thanked Blackburn for “speaking out and having a backbone—one of the best senators we have. Let’s not ‘normalize’ any of what this person is doing. This is absurdity!”
“There is a difference between acceptance and tolerance, and normalizing exposing your genitals in a public way and a public place. I do not support that at all, in the slightest. Dylan…congrats [you’re] trans with a penis.”
