@TyranxYoung@Flutterbestpone@TheManganese@BriannaWu As you point out, they are 24 years of age. My personal process (which may be ongoing in a philoso-spritiual sense) of my identity began before they were born.
We can certainly call attention to the problematic nature, but I feel we should avoid condemning to some oubliette
@AndyKindler@Martina@EmmaVigeland Please don't use "trans" in isolation. There are various forms of transness and coopting the prefix and concept of transition and applying it as a default to one implied form is marginalizing and exclusionary
thank you for your sensitivity to this issue
@BriannaWu@ErnestBorgTen@donutmedia since this seems to be somehow getting attention again
ADDENDUM : as it turns out, Brianna Wu did block me soon after this exchange, hence no reply from her
no, she never produced any information or explanation -- just a block
@BriannaWu@ErnestBorgTen@donutmedia yes! because you sort dodged the issue (the OP even called them "self-appointed") on them slagging cyclists
what class you racing bikes in?
little confused by that b/c saw a picture of your bike and it's still got street trim and I'm not seeing any safety wiring
@Flutterbestpone@TyranxYoung@TheManganese@BriannaWu that's even MORE problematic.
not only is it someone trying to force someone to out their Gender
BUT it is using a corporate tracking system (follower count) and/or popularity as a gauge of validity
@Loubie06080834 @adamfare1996 re : gender of even onanimate nouns
It's not uncommon in romanto-germanic languages (at least, possibly others) , it's an encoded check similar to a checksum (as in a parity bit) in digital packet communications
@Flutterbestpone@TyranxYoung@TheManganese@BriannaWu Also, please understand that "are you trans--" in any wordform is highly problematic.
It may be acceptable in certain cultural/generational environments to which you are ensconced, but it is NOT globally appropriate as it prompts a self-outing
@Flutterbestpone@TyranxYoung@TheManganese@BriannaWu Please don't use "trans" in isolation.
it marginalizing to the rich tapestry of transness and tends to imply a centering on specific forms thereby marginalizing other forms.
@Elm_private22 @sayittru1 @sweetheartbutch As the undergrad doesn't confer any certification of knowledge it wouldn't provide substantive explanation.
I made no claim to any diagnosis related to you.
Rather, I did observe that you engage in a behavior of creation of an oppressive systems
@Elm_private22 @sayittru1 @sweetheartbutch Note : there are facilities on twitter (such as DMs and various forms of tweet viewing protections that allow for one-way communications and party-to-party comms)
@Elm_private22 @sayittru1 @sweetheartbutch As we were discussing, cognitive and perceptual processing is full of opponent process.
and You did comment on the perceptions of outside entities
@Elm_private22 @sayittru1 @sweetheartbutch It's less a matter of offense within my sphere, but it is a n apt demonstration of personal contruction of oppressive systems on which you commented
@Elm_private22 @sayittru1 @sweetheartbutch an undergrad position is not really a particular basis for authority as it hasn't conferred any sort of degree.
As to your awareness - that wouldn't be born out by your claims of obviousness for example.

@theBrianaMills One example is stating criminal misdeed, another classic that is specifically referenced is loathsome disease (which was traditionally leprosy)
there, even legally, we see a societal construct dealing with infectious agents that center on ostracizing (sequestering) the infected
@theBrianaMills In terms of defamation, in the common law tradition, def is broken into 2 major kinds per quod and per se.
per quod where damage has to be shown
per se, however, is of such a pernicious nature as damage is "automatically" assumed.
