I don't think the far left started it. I think the trans community started it and the far left adopted it in an attempt to show some kind of solidarity.
My problem is the right will use misgendering as the opening against hate speech when they really want to open the door to using the N word. They always end up that ALL speech should be allowed.
And Elon can do what he wants.
So while Twitter management leaned left, there was PLENTY of right wing bullshit all over twitter every day. And twitter very much overvalues its importance. So I can agree with your point on the excesses of the far left, the right considers banning the use of any slurs as an attack on them.
So we agree on that being far left concept whether they started it or adopted it.
The fact that moderate parents can't even discuss the issue of gender without far leftists censoring them is problematic. Wouldn't you agree?
Do you consider BGOL to be far right? Of course not. BGOL leans left. I said leans left because there is no gay shit allowed, no trans shit, most cats against gender nonsense, a lot of active members are gun owners, folks are pro-choice for the most part. I could go on. That is leaning left.
Yet and still there are people on BGOL who would be censored or banned on old twitter because leftists are pushing gender propaganda. Anyone who doesn't get down with the bullshit is labeled a nazi or on the right. That means 90 percent of active posters here would be labeled far right by the leftists they cheering for in this thread.
So Twitter management didn't lean left, they were far left thus the gender nonsense in their rules(which were posted online for all to see on their own rules page). And if they were far left in that, wouldn't that leak into politics. Leaks seem to confirm that, yet folks deny it.
I'm of the opinion that black men on the BGOL barbershop should be laughing at all the people involved. Elon, the far left(not those that lean left like us), and the right. Some cats around here think the far left lunatics that would cancel them just for being on BGOL are their allies. Those far leftists that ran twitter don't give a fuck about us. Fuck them.
At least you a man and answered shit honestly unlike most these cats.
