Your understanding of what is at issue here seems more than a little off.

Nobody is saying that elevator guy is a terrible person, nobody is saying that what he did is life threatening. What we are saying, what she said is that it is a very uncomfortable situation and hey can you please not do that because it makes us uncomfortable and does not promote an inclusive, welcoming environment, which is a problem within the community, and honestly society as a whole.

That is the message that was put out and that is what people responded to with hate, anger, vitriol, and dismissal. This response is what we are angry about.
