The comment you're replying to is accurate. The intent is to silence her.
Death threats = silencing.

The problem isn't opinions but inconsistent ones which the Left is imposing on others. Here's Richard Dawkins tearing apart the Left's logic. A white woman identifying as black women is bad while a man identifying as a woman is ok.
