Hi there, I’ve been locked out of Twitter and told to remove these tweets. There is nothing hateful about either tweet and they’re both true, so I’d not going to delete anything. I’d appreciate it if people could request that I be reinstated.
Some people seem to think it's insulting to describe people as having mental problems. But what is gender dysphoria if not a mental problem? It's not an insult to suggest someone might be mentally ill, there's no judgement involved, it's something that needs to be treated and cured, especially when it's affecting society to such a deleterious end.
Not that such an agreement is necessarily a terrible idea. But we haven't been involved in the discussion. Gnats the point. These rules of etiquette are imposed by the same people silencing and smearing people like me.
I've been locked out of my main account for months now, suspended for violating rules for hateful conduct. I've appealed 3 times and tagged Elon Musk from another account only to have that one permanently suspended without appeal. Twitter still operating arbitrarily.
Offending Tweet:
"No such thing as trans, it's a cruel despicable lie promulgated by homophobics and misogynists. Vulnerable people with mental health issues, conditions like autism and young people struggling to come to terms with their sexuality are being preyed on by 'kind people' ".
I have been suspended too. Here is my "crime", attacking the dangerous Roderic O'Gorman:
@rodericogorman My trans ex-H was castrated. Do you seriously want to encourage children to go as mad as he was? GD is a v serious mental disorder - AVOID promoting it to young kids! It is "Mind virus" per @ElonMusk #GIischildabuse #sexnotgender https://t.co/0GAy5q3za9 "
Riddle me this. If 'gender' 'dysphoria' is not a mental illness, why will they be driven to commit suicide if they are not medically and socially 'affirmed'?
This is troubling. There are still algorithms or Cult members at Twitter set on censoring truth tellers. I also got a Twitter suspension for politely stating that trans "women" are NOT women. I decided to say "Uncle" this time to be reinstated....i.e. I deleted the tweet and they restored my account. I did so with great reluctance after assessing the value of ongoing access to Twitter to connect with other sane people for organizing against the Cult.
I refuse to go on Twitter. It’s anti-biology and anti-women. Of course the tweet isn’t hateful but it doesn’t comply with the attempts to brainwash us that men can become women.
Its a sort of Shrodinger's problem... Is it a Mental/Health condition? Or Is it NOT a Mental/Health condition?
EA2010 has its 9th Protected Characteristic as "gender reassignment". The assumption with that PC is that one is undergoing transition and as such will have medical support at the very least.
On one hand, "trans" persons say they NEED "trans healthcare" (as if the concept of "trans" is a separate type of human). They MUST have immediate access to all the drugs they demand and all the surgeries or this is discrimination.
At the very same time, they say that their being "trans" is NOT a health condition of any kind whatsoever. Its not a mental illness, its not a physical one.
They can't have it both ways.
If its NOT a mental or physical health condition, then why do they need the drugs and surgeries? That says they are drug addicts and addicted to ever extreme body modifications. That's self harm.
PC 9 - gender reassignment - if it IS a health condition whether mental or physical, it can be covered perfectly well under Disability. If its NOT a health condition, whether mental or physical, it is then just a lifestyle choice - because taking recreational drugs and having cosmetic surgeries IS a lifestyle choice.
Thus - PC 9 - Gender Reassignment should be removed entirely as a separate and distinct protected characteristics. Its covered under "belief/Non-belief".
No other lifestyle choice nor specific health condition has its own PC. Why should this one?
Hope you get your twitter account back. Twitter won't talk to me now on mine.

Oh lord, what is the world coming to when to state a biological fact is called 'hate speech'?!

Gnats the point! Writing on an iphone is like having lBaldrick check your spelling.

But it's true - they do pick and choose when it's a mental illness!
I was locked out for 24 hours for a similar comment. How is it hate to disagree with ridiculous affirmations?

Refusing to acquiesce to a mass psychosis is transphobic. Who knew?
I want back on too. Fraserreal (@lawofgrace).
No matter how often I appeal, it's a no go.
Graham needs to get back onto Twitter -- he's doing a magnificent job there.
And we really need Maria Maclachlan (@Skepticat_UK) back on too. She's top of the heap great.

They do have a mental illness, but the truth hurts.
Done. Bloody ridiculous

I agree with you Graham. I've shared this on twitter and told twittersupport that you should be reinstated.
