One post from @anonYmous under the dictionary entry for “female” on October 2nd, reads: “It is absolutely sickening that Merriam-Webster now tells blatant lies and promotes anti-science propaganda. There is no such thing as ‘gender identity.’ The imbecile who wrote this entry should be hunted down and shot,” the complaint details.
Over a period of time last October, Hanson allegedly used the company website’s “Contact Us” page to send “threatening and despicable messages related to the LGBTQ community,” US Attorney Rachael S. Rollins said in a news release.
Less than a week later, Merriam-Webster received a disturbing message under the website dictionary’s entry for “Girl.” “The moron who created this fake definition should be hunted down and shot. I am sick and tired of these cultural Marxists denying science and destroying the English Language. Merriam-Webster headquarters should be shot and bombed. Boys aren’t girls.”
The message led the company to shut down its Springfield, Massachusetts, and New York offices for approximately five business days, the news release said.
