In today’s “how are people this dumb” thread I’d like to address the vague legal threats that have been popping up in my mentions regarding “being on a list” and “GDPR”. #repealshield@repeal_shield ➡️
Yes love, you are on a list. It’s called a block list. It’s one of twitters core functionalities. Wow, look here I can even see and manage my own block list from within the app! 🤓 Now, you’re hardly complaining about someone using a choice to block ya are ya? ➡️

So, here is the long promised @repeal_shield block list overview. I know I've been promising it a while, but the list grew so rapidly and I'm never to the data analysis stuff so it took much longer than expected. #RepealShield
Firstly, this analysis is not based on the full block list as it currently stands. There are currently over 16,000 on the list - this analysis is based on the last data dump from a few days ago so that's 13,474 users.

Antis are claiming that abortion will basically be widespread and a free for all if it’s allowed on mental health grounds. This is insulting not only to women who need abortions, but also further stigmatizes mental health. ➡️
