“30 day ban for saying people like bottom of the barrel hummus but other people get 2 WEEKS for advocating for the genocide of palestinians. got it,” Fr0gan posted on X after the bans were announced, referring to Twitch banning streamer Zack “Asmongold” Hoyt for 14 days after he said that Muslim people come from “an inferior culture” and that he’s “not going to cry a fucking river when people who have genocide that’s baked into their laws are getting genocided” on a recent stream.
“Upon learning of the former president’s request, we approached it through the lens of one of our core values: we open our doors to everyone,” the company said.
When you're door is open to fascist demagogues, it's not open to everyone.
I completely understand that and I do not fault Harris for giving a precise diplomatic answer in the Fox interview on what some voters see as a sensitive issue. Which is difficult for me to even type because the concept of my existence is a "political issue" to some.
However, I do take exception with it being characterized as "Harris announce support for trans community", because that's just not what she said. Which is why I am happy to hear Waltz clarify and go further.
I'm honestly heartened to hear Waltz specfically voice support for trans folk. This is opposed to Harris who said she would follow the law in regards to my community, which sounds good but I need everyone to understand that it could be said by a governor in a southern state enforcing anti trans legislation. Waltz actually went the distance to say we should to be legally left alone. There is a stark difference between these two statements, even if I glad to hear both.
After WIRED contacted Kofsky for comment, some of PsychoticMammal’s posts about drugs were deleted, and their Poshmark avatar was changed to a picture of characters from the Star Wars movie Attack of the Clones.
This right here is the funniest goddamn thing I have ever read. Way to confirm it's your account AND confirm your a huge unserious dork.
I can't say if they identify with that term, just that Ezra is nonbinary. However "trans" is an umbrella term encompassing lots of different identities, such as transgender, transexual, intersex, non-binary etc.
So Ezra was included because I thought they would be the most widely known shitty person that has a gender identify still worthy of respect.
"Bret, I'm sorry, and with all due respect, that clip was not what he has been saying about the 'enemy within' that he has repeated when he's speaking about the American people. That's not what you just showed."
Bless her backbone, it's seemed rather rare among Democrats as of late.
Strictly speaking about the content of the movie and not my opinion of the lead actor.
The Flash movie is.... odd. A big time travel alter dimensional mess. Fun enough if you sorta turn your brain off, wonderful visual effects just don't think too hard on any particular plot point.
Sure. I chose those three because they are probably the biggest names that trans people might feel comfortable misgendering.
Ezra Miller is an actor who played the superhero The Flash in the last few movies, they are also non-binary and use they/them prounouns. There is a lot of details on wikipedia but the TL:DR Ezra started a relationship with an underage fan (Ezra was 23, she was 12) and this led to kidnapping claims by her parents and a restraining order. They are a real piece of shit IMO.
BLaire White is a right wing youtuber who regularly posts things like this. She also has said repeatedly that "trans women aren't real women, just trans women", suffice to say she is generally disliked by the broader trans community.
Caitlyn Jenner does and says similar things, but with a much bigger microphone. She has been a vocal supporter of Trump and generally the openly transphobic MAGA movement. She ran for governor of California and during her failed campaign, said she would ban trans kids from competing in sports. Currently, she is a Fox News correspondent and regularly appears just saying the most awful things. Much like Blaire, Caitlyin is not well liked by the trans community.
I... don't know. But please don't misgender cis people. It just makes it harder to convince them that misgendering is wrong if you also do it. The trans community is more vulnerable to misgendering than the bigots, so if we start doing it to people we don't like, then it becomes some sort of schoolyard insult revenge term where we as trans folk lose.
Even with a trans person does something shitty, such as Blair White, Caitlyn Jenner or Ezra Miller, it's not a free pass to misgender them. The only effect of that is the trans people in your life know you aren't the ally you claim to be. You aren't misgendering your friends because you are polite. It's absolutely not okay, keep criticizing crappy trans folk, but when you intentionally misgender then you attack all of us.
Without a hair net or hand washing in Trumps case. Photo op is gonna get y'all sick and you'll deserve.
