Im baffled at how that misinformation continues to spread (even by major organizations and representatives) when the correct information can be easily obtained on Johnson’s wikipedia page. You can’t start a riot if you arrived after the riot began. Johnson was honest about his involvement in the riot too.

Also on the wikipedia page is Johnson said he was a gender non-conforming gay man. Yet, you can see the last sentence trying to justify the trans bullshit by saying that “transgender” wasn’t a popular term at that time.

A transvestite (another term Johnson used to describe himself) is a
man who likes to wear women’s clothes.

It is one thing for poeple on the Internet to spread this information. It is an entirely different beast and awful historical record keeping when major organizations continue to perpetuate these lies. Even GLAAD trooned Johnson.

Lol, “don’t describe them as drag queens”. Martha described himself as a queen.
Apparently, the person who ignited the riot was Stormé Delarverie, a biracial (black and white) butch lesbian who had a scuffle with the police. I wouldn’t be surprised if troons tried to trans her in the future too considering that she is butch and sometimes worked as a drag king.

Again, I got all this information from less than one minute of Google searching. It’s not as if this info is obscure or highly contested. There is literally no valid excuse for that misinformation to still be floating around. So,
@TERF ISLAND is right, this is just massive gaslighting.
