A writer has been jailed for two months for calling an activist a “fat lesbian.”
Alain Soral, a Swiss writer, critiqued Catherine Macherel as a “queer activist” and described her as “unhinged,” including the descriptive “fat lesbian.”
A report from Fox News said that a court in Lausanne, Switzerland, ordered Soral, who also goes by the name Alain Bonnet, to jail for 60 days for the “crimes” of “defamation, discrimination and incitement to hatred.”
The comments were posted online in a Facebook video several years ago.
