Fyi & I assume I'll need a trigger warning for TERF related posts ahead dealing with recent events & other stuff here on twitter. I won't include the gab stuff regardless because it's so bad I was actually frightened reading it.
TERF thread incoming!
Theres too much going on right now to share everything I've come across recently from the "GC a.k.a TERF" crowd. As mentioned a couple weeks ago these folks were building a bonfire where their internal rage was turning external towards the trans & gender binary groups of people
Even intersex people are being targeted & "used" as a way to try & cause a rift between us in our own communities not to mention the push to rift the gay & lesbian folks from us as well. I'll use "GC - Gender Critical" a lot in this thread instead of TERF for now.
As for my own sanity, I do what I can in my free time to alleviate having to dive into so much of this crap on several platforms. In the last week alone I've reported nearly 300 people for wide-ranging abuses here in twitter, medium & other sites.
But I think some people are getting the message that at some point you can't just turn a blind eye to this stuff especially now as what were our own trans allies now pushing the "GC" threads trying to erase years of progress made by so many others.
I'm only brushing on a couple things here. Keep that in mind.
First let's start with oh so famous as of late ClareBDimyon who is pushing dangerous threads associating trans folks with pedophiles & accusing us of numerous sexual crimes. Part of this thread below ties into that woman who was in a comatose state & raped & gave birth.
In the background over on gab was a thread calling out certain well known or somewhat known trans folks & allies as extremists, terrorists & extraterrestrial threats including yours truly.
The thread in particular has vanished like a fart in the wind however.
It seems that 4 chan trolls who were involved in the attempts to tie in the P category with the LGBTQIA+ communities have been interacting with the GC crowds attempting to literally set a bomb off towards us.
That then coupled with several attempts to tie in trans folks in hospitals including doctors & nurses who may also be trans & working in those positions. I've seen the push thread going after us with this crap about trans folks demanding screenings & saying that cis women deserve
It first. Not Claire's push about cervical stuff.
Theres a huge sudden push from GC folks which you've likely seen on the "I was a tomboy & experienced gender dysphoria" bit. Now there is a push again from people claiming to be de-transitioned to formerly being on blockers, testosterone & so on. Many though look suspicious.
The Transrational crowd is at it again as well. None of these people within this movement have anything to do with or about being rational. Most of the threads being pushed now are the same ones cis GCer's have tried to use before. Also there is some type of project being worked
On by the transrational crowd including a dedicated YouTube channel.
Another newcomer to the transrational debate. One of several now pushing trans elitist messages & harassment towards folks in our community who don't mean their "rigid" standards for qualifying as transgender & why, how much & when dysphoria starts
Also the person above has a thread on attempts to push us back 30 years towards some terms used for explaining trans folks back in the 1980's. All about classifying us with more "sex" related words that we spent years pushing for change from. Strange for someone born in 1999 yes?
Another thread dealing with trans folks asking for &/or paying surrogates to carry & have baby for them has popped up. This came out of recent threads they've brought up about trans periods, the cis woman who had a womb transplant & so on.
This post from Ani highlights the attempts to tie trans folks in as abusers. NOTE: This is the same person who posted a enormously transphobic article on medium the other day targeting & blatantly misgendering Connecticut track star Andraya Yearwood.
Cis trolls are a dime a dozen these days but I'd suggest watching out for & blocking the user below for building another trans violence & sexual abuse thread. Also this user has been mlm photo grabbing as well.
After facing a one week suspension from Twitter the user below who claims to be another trans GC woman is at it again btw.
Restlessellie has been at it again with a list of all the sex based rights the GC crowd claims that trans folks are trying to take away.
Also if you didn't see it before there appears to he a conference in planning upcoming sometime soon here in Washington DC with some of the biggest & for front players in the GC movement including Meagan Murphy, Posie Parker & many more!
Despite numerous reporting a the user below who claims to be another de-transitioner has been posting blatantly transphobia & nothing seems to have been done to stop it!
I'll just leave this one here..
Another transrational trans person
Twitter has been busy on my behalf over the last week alone.
More!
And More!
And even more!
And just two more for a week's worth of bullshit I've faced.
So many beautiful, cute, fun & intelligent trans people I am friends with these days. Many who I inspire & in turn am inspired by them as well. Before transition I use to despise being trans, but now 4 years later I'm proud of who I am, who i've become & my future. 1/25
Every day more & more people come out from hiding in the shadows to take a stand for themselves & say to the world they will no longer be afraid to be who they really are & should've always been. When we take that stand to be ourselves, we become a beacon of light for others 2/25
Despite all of the difficulties & loss we each suffer in varying degrees, in the long run I believe that 99.98% of those who have transitioned will agree that it was the BEST decision they've ever made! That one day clarity hits & we finally get a taste of being free. 3/25
