I’m honestly shaken at the number of infosec people, particularly women, who are endorsing and spouting Russian transphobic misinformation about Olympic athletes with added hateful TERF rhetoric. In public, right in front of queer and trans peers. Some I used to consider friends. We all see all of it. It’s absolute hell for trans community members. We need to be calling this crap out for what it is.
@hacks4pancakes Agreed 100%. I’m appalled at the hatred I see.
@wendynather they are outing themselves and it’s awful. Imagine your definition of a “real woman” being so narrow it doesn’t even include a person with female genitalia who was raised, lives, and identifies as a woman in an anti queer country, based on a dubious genetic debate from an untrustworthy source.
@hacks4pancakes @wendynather this specific case is really shaping up to show exactly how absurdly some people have chosen to twist their "rules".
@phpete @hacks4pancakes @wendynather my favorite meme on this topic so far
@wilbr @phpete @wendynather they always forget trans men and masc enbys exist
@hacks4pancakes @wilbr @phpete @wendynather Those populations' existence do not help their cause (grifting for likes and cash), so they just pretend they don't.
