On Top of the Rest of the Tragedy...

This just makes me want to cry.  From 8/28/25 Hindustan Times:
"Part of what [murderer name redwcted]


 wrote in his manifesto in Cyrillic, which was translated by the New York Post, read, "I don't want to dress girly all the time but I guess sometimes I really like it. I know I am not a woman but I definitely don't feel like a man … I really like my outfit.”

"I look pretty, smart and modest. I think I want to wear something like this for my shooting," added the 23-year-old, who identified as a transgender woman. "I hate my face. I hate when I can see it. I don't want to be seen.""

I think the word they wanted was transliterated, not translated.  Someone needed to be steered away from this confusion a lot earlier.
