Me, still referring to X as twitter: Am I transphobic?

I am.

I always give Swasticar drivers extra space- especially the ones in a Wankepazer.

Isn't a phobia explicitly an IRrational fear/hate? I feel like being afraid of the harmful influence and thus hating Xitter is completely rational.

The medical definition of a phobia, yes.

But transphobes aren’t generally medically phobic of trans people. They’re just assholes.

I'd say they have an irrational hate towards trans people

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

That’s true.

You should refer to it as Shitter. Same thing, different pronunciation.

Deadnaming Twitter is praxis and actively supporting trans people, given its owners hostility towards them

I'll stop deadnaming Twitter when Musk stops deadnaming his daughter Vivian.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Nope

It’s twitter until Musk acknowledges his trans daughter’s rights.
