The Starbucks manager filmed screaming at a customer for being ‘transphobic’ after she used the word ‘lady’ to describe a non-binary member of staff is an outspoken campaigner for trans rights, we can reveal.

Until today the identity of the coffee shop worker filmed berating a woman and throwing her out of a branch of the chain in Southampton in footage that went viral has remained secret - but MailOnline can reveal she is Luna Spain, 28.

The dramatic footage led to widespread speculation over the identity of the person caught on camera screaming at Vanessa Thomas, 55, after she inadvertently referred to one of her colleague’s as a ‘lady.’

Luna had been working in the Starbucks, which is partially owned by a licensor for the past six months combining the job with studying for a degree in Environmental Science at the Open University.

She was raised in Gosport, Hampshire where she attended a local secondary school but has been living in Southampton for the past five years.

What a psycho.

More evidence of psychological problems.

But that was already somewhat self-evident.

This happened in Southampton England rather than where the Pruitts lived, . What puzzles me is how did it survive long enough to become a mangler? Food and beverage service is a stressful environment, with an excessive share of jerk customers. How did it not blow up at a customer while still a barista or cashier? Was there some, "Transfer to another store and we won't tell anyone what you did," non-discipline in its past?

Or an attempt to assert victim-power. I think the trans-screamers are a mix of sensitive snowflakes and people wanting to assert domination over normal people.
