I'm in Twitter jail for tweeting about the risks 'Trans Day of Vengeance' poses
What did I do? On March 23, I tweeted this image—after confirming it wasn’t a tasteless April Fool’s Day joke!—and warned that suggestive rhetoric around vengeance and violence in response to ‘trans genocide’ raised the risk that a trans-identified person or ally would take up that suggestion.
Let’s look at my account violation again: I’ve been locked out for violating the Twitter Rules. Specifically for: ______________?
That’s weird. I’m locked out for “violating the Twitter Rules” but I didn’t violate any rules. My appeal—where I asked what rule I had violated—was rejected, with no clarification (“specifically our rules around: __________”).
I’m not alone either. Apparently, lots of accounts that shared this flyer were locked after yesterday’s mass shooting in Nashville and forced to delete tweets.
It looks like there’s an attempt to scrub “Trans Day of Vengeance” from Twitter. And I get it. Trans Day of Vengeance is a bad look. But if Twitter admins want to rewrite history to remove evidence of incitement to violence, they’re going to have to work harder than this—because trans communities are rife with incitement.
This is what it looks like when a subculture makes victimization and violence—directed at the self or against perceived enemies—central to the group's identity. Mythologize suicide and martyrdom and you will recruit suicides and martyrs to your cause. And that’s terrifying.
After yesterday’s mass shooting, online trans communities erupted—with self pity, mostly.
I don't know many details because looking into this feels like doomscrolling. Apparently, from what I've seen, a trans man targeted a Christian school in Nashville and shot it up, killing a few students and teachers. The media is obviously having a field day with this. Misgendering him up the ass, mistaking him for a trans woman, blaming testosterone and HRT for the violent behavior, accusing the trans community of trying to destroy Christians, etc. Even the cops and news are misgendering him like crazy. And I know that I shouldn't care, he's a murderer (and my heart goes out to the victims and their families), but it just adds on to the fact that we're not seen as human. A cisgender man shoots up a school and he's a misunderstood victim, a transgender man shoots up the school and "she's just another crazy transgender".
I managed to screencap this comment before the moderators deleted it, which sums up the problem that trans communities urgently need to address:
“The murderous and suicidal rhetoric, the violence against women and children, should've stopped years ago. Another good time to discontinue it would be now."
So Elon Musk is covering up violent threats by the transifiers. Good look Elon!
We must keep pressure on the Nashville police and the MSM to release the murderer's "manifesto".
This whole movement has made me think David Icke, outlandish as he may be, is on to something when he suggests there is some force in the world that really feeds on human despair and distress. the ginning up of murderous behavior in trans activism is in the service of some really dark appetites.
I started to think about this more when I briefly was running a Twitter account for an organization and experienced how the "inside side" of the Twitter account, aptly named "the feed", was a solid wall of Jeffrey Marsh and Dylan Mulvaney videos -- two men who seemed built in a lab to frighten, disgust, and infuriate. And it occurred to me: these are the Tutsis they are showing Hutus like me, and I need to stop looking at them.
That doesn't mean stop thinking about the issues, stop writing, stop protesting, stop mobilizing. But really dark forces want IN to all of our souls. The folk wisdom about vampires -- they can't get into your house unless you INVITE them in -- applies here.
trans activism is the abyss. It's sad so many trans-identified people and their "allies" have fallen into it and all you have to do is look at the NZ footage to see what it does to people, what it turns them into.
But those of us opposed to it have to remember what Nietzche said: when you look into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
(this is not scolding your post Eliza, which is great and important. Just was an opportunity to air some thoughts I've been having!)
