1. INCELS?

That's the only thing I can come up with considering how much they hate women. Especially strong women. Trying to send a message?

2. There are other contenders

Someone who hates feminist symbols (goes beyond those incel dinks);

The anti-choicers have cherry-picked some of Anthony's views and glommed onto her as a historic feminist figure who "supports" their view. As much as I'd like to place the blame where my knee-jerk tells me (the right), we can't rule out someone who's heard too much of that and is striking at an anti-choice symbol;

Not to mention a "false flag" by some RW zealot who'd be happy for some leftist to take the blame for attacking a feminist landmark.
