Twitter removes woke policy against ‘misgendering’ and ‘deadnaming’ transgender people

  Rebel News

Prior to the move, the platform’s content policy read: “We prohibit targeting others with repeated slurs, tropes or other content that intends to dehumanize, degrade or reinforce negative or harmful stereotypes about a protected category.” 

"Twitter has removed its woke-oriented policy against the misgendering and deadnaming of transgender individuals, stirring controversy among LGBTQ activist organizations that the platform could become an “unsafe” space for transgender individuals.

"Prior to the move, the platform’s content policy read: “We prohibit targeting others with repeated slurs, tropes or other content that intends to dehumanize, degrade or reinforce negative or harmful stereotypes about a protected category.”

“ 'This includes targeted misgendering or deadnaming of transgender individuals,” the rule stated. The rule was put in place in 2018 following campaigning from activist groups. Other platforms, including TikTok and Pinterest explicitly ban misgendering and deadnaming as part of their content policies.

"On Monday, the company revoked its prior guidelines to replace them with a free speech-first policy built around the principle of “freedom of speech, not freedom of reach,” which only places warning labels on violative tweets and limiting their reach instead of banning the users who post them. . ."    

Deadnaming is the act of referring to a transgender or non-binary person by a name they used before transitioning or coming out, such as their birth name or former name, without their consent

Indifferent Citizens Are No Better Than the Corrupt Government They Detest -

 Intellectual Takeout   . . .



Emphases in the original

. . ."It means that, when we elect men to public office we cannot do it as lightly as we flip a coin. It means that after we’ve elected them we can’t sit back and say, ‘Our job is done. What they do now doesn’t concern us.’ 
That philosophy of indifference is what the enemies of decent government want. If we allow them to have their way to grow strong and vicious, then the heroic struggle which welded thousands of lovely towns like this into a great nation means nothing. Then we’re not citizens, we’re traitors!
The great liberties by which we live have been bought with blood. The kind of government we get, is the kind of government we want. Government of the people, by the people, and for the people can mean ANY kind of government. It’s our duty to make it be only ONE kind: uncorrupted, free, united! [Emphasis added.]

Leo Dee undermines cause by saying he's got "no hatred" for terrorists who murdered daughters and wife

 Leo Dee undermines cause by saying he's got "no hatred" for terrorists who murdered daughters and wife (ibloga.blogspot.com)   "The British-Israeli rabbi whose 2 daughters and wife were tragically murdered earlier this month by jihadists around the Jordan Valley has made a very bizarre and undermining statement about the jihadists themselves:

The Israeli-British rabbi whose wife and two daughters were killed this month in a terror shooting on a West Bank road said he has “no hatred” for the people who gunned down his family, in comments aired on Sunday.

Lucy Dee, 48, and her daughters Maia Dee, 20, and Rina Dee, 15, were killed after Palestinian terrorists opened fire at the car they were in as they drove through the northern Jordan Valley on April 7. The daughters were declared dead at the scene, while Lucy was rushed to a hospital in critical condition but died three days later.

The suspects remain on the loose despite promises from officials that they will be found and brought to justice.. . .

. . ."What Dee should really be doing is condemning any and all dhimmis who minimize the murder of his family, including those who substitute the word "murder" with "killed". That kind of disturbing mentality and MSM mandates are exactly what enable these tragedies to occur. It's absolutely awful these murders occur. But it's also awful when relatives of the murdered women take the lenient positions Dee is. That really hurts the battle against Islamofascism."

Dhimmi:  A non-Muslim subject of a state governed according to the shari'a who is granted the freedom to worship and is entitled to the protection of life and property by the state, although constrained to pay a special tax and not granted the full legal status accorded to Muslim subjects. The status of dhimmi was originally limited to Christians and Jews but has occasionally been extended to Hindus, Zoroastrians, and others.

"It has certainly been hard hit. The Big Apple has become the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic. The death toll is high, the anxiety is deep and the images are brutal. But New York is tough. It has seen big crisis before. Actually, in the last 20 years, it has been the setting of three of the biggest world crises: 9/11, the Global Financial Crisis and, now, the coronavirus pandemic.". . .

House Judiciary hearing on crime in Manhattan brings out victims' grieving families, Trump supporters (yahoo.com)  . . ."The title of Monday’s hearing, “Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan,” was intended as a referendum on the policies of Alvin Bragg, the progressive Manhattan district attorney who recently indicted former President Donald Trump for falsifying business records.
"Republicans said that because Bragg’s office receives some federal funding, Congress has oversight over his policies. “We certainly have a right, in Congress, to overview a lot of different subjects,” Rep. Jeff Van Drew, R-N.J., told reporters after the hearing.". . .



Joe Biden’s Three Stooges...Plus Hunter

 

Joe Biden’s Three Stooges - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  . . ."Joe probably presides over the least distinguished cabinet in history. There is Kamala, who as vice president has had to shuffle and reshuffle her staff so many times that Washington insiders suspect COVID-19 is alive and well in her office. Why can she not keep staff members for more than a few weeks? There is Secretary of Homeland Security Mayorkas, who has appeared before congressional committees so often that he might well be suspected of being a subversive or a foreign agent. And, of course, there is Secretary Buttigieg, who, like all of these three modern-day stooges, has a dreadful time getting down to our southern border to see how things are going. Frankly, I sympathize with the secretary. What if he got kidnapped down there? What if the White House refused to pay his ransom?

"Why cannot Joe put together a cabinet of some distinction? Well, a cabinet of distinction would be difficult to put together for either party as things stand right now. There is a troubling problem facing both political parties. America is lacking in leadership. A few paragraphs ago, I mentioned Henry Kissinger. He is a man of stature. Now in his 99th year, he is still writing, thinking, and listening. But he is too old to lead. Maybe he could advise the leaders of at least one party, and that would be the Republicans. The Democrats already take their leadership from something called “woke.” As in “we done woke up.”

Biden is famous for his character and leadership

 American Thinker:


Biden is again pushing the white-on-black genocide myth - Andrea Widberg   "Earlier in April, a so-called “transgender man” went to a Christian school in Nashville and slaughtered six people, including (quite deliberately) three nine-year-olds. A couple of days ago, an 84-year-old man in Kansas City shot Ralph Yarl, a 16-year-old black teen who knocked on the wrong door. The White House responded very differently to these events. For the first, it sent Kamala Harris to support transgenderism and gun-grabbing. For the second, Biden invited Yarl to the White House. We know he did so to emphasize white-on-black killings. The problem is that it’s black-on-black killings that are the real plague in America’s black communities.". . .

Biden drives even Israel into China's arms - Monica Showalter  . . ."As the U.S. gets bogged down in Ukraine, and Russia aligns with China as both states win friends and influence around the world, Israel is pretty on its own now. The magnificent Abraham accords of President Trump's era, making peace for Israel and Saudi Arabia and a string of other nations after it, has been eclipsed by China's "peacemaking" between Saudi Arabia and Iran, freeing up the mullah-ruled state to focus its malevolence on tiny Israel alone. For Israel, its best option may be to move under China's wing so China can stop Iran.

If Marjorie Taylor Greene is accurate, what she says about Biden is mind-blowing - Andrea Widberg  . . ."It took a strong stomach to watch the videos and view the photographs on Hunter’s hard drive. They revealed a compulsively exhibitionistic man who couldn’t stop recording himself smoking crack, sniffing cocaine, and cavorting with prostitutes, some of whom looked as if they fell into the statutory rape category. Moreover, the laptop revealed that, when Hunter requested money from his Dad (the current Oval Office occupant) to fund this debauchery, Dad paid up.

What the laptop also revealed, despite Biden’s strenuous denials, is that Joe was involved in Hunter’s many business dealings. We know this because Hunter’s staffers, business partners, and prospects were all welcomed into Joe’s vice-presidential office.

 It is Biden, Obama, and other leftists who continually seek to divide the country, not Trump - American Thinker   . . .Obama lied continuously to get Obamacare passed, not Trump. People who were against Obama’s policies on healthcare and other things were frequently called racists. 

“See! Right-wing intolerance, hatred and racism fuel this movement.”

"Obama dictatorially ignored immigration laws when he implemented DACA, not Trump.

"Obama and Biden support lawless sanctuary cities and states, not Trump.

"Obama used the IRS to target political opponents, not Trump. He sought to silence people who disagreed on policies before elections.

"Biden compared tea party members who wanted smaller government as domestic terrorists.


Democrats frequently use this tactic whether it is people who want to make America great again, people who protest elections, or parents.". . .Much, much more on Biden in this article and you may find it worth keeping. Tunnel Dweller

Sarcasm alert: Donn Reeves:

So many more people love Sleepy over Trump due to his stellar handling of the economy, foreign and fiscal policy. Things couldn't be better. Economy is booming. Ukrainians are winning the war (or so we are told, and why this is good is beyond my pay grade) swimmingly. Mortgage rates are lower than under Carter's reign (17-18%). LOL. High food prices are transitory and will come down when...maybe Hell freezes over. The depletion of the strategic oil supply are keeping energy prices low. The minority population has never had it better. The alphabet people are doing their part being so tolerant towards some of us who don't believe in the depravity. Highways are racist. And the 11 killed and 26 wounded last weekend in Chicago was due to the hot weekend. LOL. Yup, we need another Biden term... well -- actually BO 3.0.






What Democrats have wrought:

Biden’s Susceptibility to Blackmail has Unleashed Domestic and International Chaos

Tellingly, Xi Jinping smugly watches Biden grovel before him, ignores his requests for talks and meetings and not so subtly reminds Biden that he has the dirt on him and will expose it if necessary.

Here's a good spot for the Springsteen endorsement. Naaa. 

 Steve McCann; American Thinker  "It has often been speculated what would happen to this nation if a decadently compromised president who willingly succumbed to extortion from both domestic and foreign interests were elected.  That possibility is no longer in the realm of speculation.  For the past 27 months the United States has experienced this devastating eventuality, as no president in this nation’s history has been as susceptible to domestic and international blackmail as Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. 

"Nonetheless, in their unbridled hubris, the Democrats' puppet masters turned to Joe Biden whom they could portray as a “moderate” in order to defeat Donald Trump.

"While Trump was in office this same cabal vociferously proclaimed that “A president openly susceptible to blackmail cannot serve.”   In a stunning example of hypocrisy, they chose the most susceptible president in American history.  However, they failed to understand that the Communist Chinese and Marxist penchant for using political blackmail to achieve their objectives would determine the fate of the country during his presidency. 

"The hubris of the American ruling class and venality on the part of Joe Biden has placed the United States in the position of being humiliated and extorted by the Chinese Communists, who have bribed his son, family and ultimately him.". . .

Staff Announcement About Biden Calling an Early 'Lid' Shows He's Getting Worse

 Staff Announcement About Biden Calling an Early 'Lid' Shows He's Getting Worse – RedState

"It’s both funny and frankly sad that they can’t defend what’s going on with Biden anymore. Indeed, I think they don’t even know what to say, which is why they don’t want him to do press conferences anymore. They just can’t explain or justify his issues. Unfortunately, it’s just going to keep getting worse."


"Biden couldn’t even answer a simple question from a child without help from Hunter. Then, even after it was explained, he went on to tell the audience of children a story about working with the late Sen. Jesse Helms (R-NC) that couldn’t possibly have been true given the time frame. He got confused as to where his office was and had a huge security breach while he was in Northern Ireland. He even managed to insult our British allies. And those were just a few of the crazy things that he said over the four days.

"But then when he got back from that vacation on Saturday, Biden flew back to his beach house in Delaware for the weekend for still more leisure time. I guess the Irish trip was so strenuous that he needed yet another getaway. When he said he was going to Delaware, he managed to insult his Interior Secretary with a weird comment about her not being from “anywhere.”

"So on Monday, you would think he would be well-rested and ready to get to work, right? Wrong.

"On Monday morning, his staff called an early lid at 9 a.m. — meaning, “don’t expect anything from him for the rest of the day.” He was worn out already, that early on Monday? That’s who we have in the office now, someone who spends 40 percent of his time on vacation and who can’t even get up for work anymore. It must be tough recovering from vacations and hanging out at the beach. As one Twitter user noted, perhaps all that “licking the world” that he talked about while in Ireland is a pretty tiring exercise.". . .

Can America be restored after Democrats have their way?

 

AfterMath

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”  ~ Mike Vanderboegh @ The Last Refuge

Wealth redistribution schemes are disguised as green policies. Our retail shelves have in recent times looked like the bare counters of communist East Berlin. We’re told that we have to make do with less, and fewer choices are in our best interest. Our economy would be full-on GDR-ed if the Sanderses and Ocasio-Cortezes had their way.

Elon Musk Says He Will Create “TruthGPT” To Compete Against “Politically Correct” A.I. Bots Like ChatGPT

 BREAKING: Elon Musk Says He Will Create "TruthGPT" To Compete Against "Politically Correct" A.I. Bots Like ChatGPT (trendingpoliticsnews.com)  "An interview between Tucker Carlson and Twitter CEO and billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk aired on Monday’s edition of Tucker Carlson Tonight.

"Musk criticized OpenAI’s chatGPT bot and said he will try and create an alternative A.I. bot that is not “trained to be politically correct.”

"' 'I’m going to start something which I know you called TruthGPT, or a maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe,” Musk told Tucker Carlson.

“ 'And I think this might be the best path to safety in the sense that an AI that cares about understanding the universe is unlikely to annihilate humans because we are an interesting part of the universe,” he added."

. . ."I think perhaps what you may be alluding to here is that regulations are really only put into effect after something terrible has happened,” Musk responded. “If that’s the case for AI and we only put in regulations after something terrible has happened, it may be too late to actually put the regulations in place.”. . .

Tim Kaine: It's OK For The FBI To Put Informants In Churches

 The Federalist

Almost Hillary's vice president until Trump won.

"Virginia Democrat Sen. Tim Kaine gave the FBI his approval to investigate Catholic parishes in his own state on Monday.

"When asked by a local ABC affiliate about the FBI’s Richmond division infiltrating Catholic communities to spy on the church for alleged extremism, Kaine called the revelations a misunderstanding.

“ 'I think the key is communication,” Kaine told ABC13. “If the FBI has a concern like that, then go to the church leaders and say, ‘Hey look, we have a concern and we don’t want your members to get unwittingly caught up in something.'”

"Former FBI Special Agent Kyle Seraphin blew the whistle on the agency’s Richmond office investigating the Catholic Church with undercover informants in February. The FBI, Seraphin wrote, “would like to protect Virginians from the threat of ‘white supremacy,’ which it believes has found a home within Catholics who prefer the Latin Mass.”

" 'The document assesses with ‘high confidence’ the FBI can mitigate the threat of Radical-Traditionalist Catholics by recruiting sources within the Catholic Church,” Seraphin warned.". . .

Nothing To Bragg About

 Nothing to ‘Bragg’ About – Grrr Graphics

"Ohio Republican Representative Jim Jordan, the House Judiciary Chairman, is facing a lawsuit from Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney who vowed to ‘get Trump’ and is using law-fare to do it. 

"Bragg claimed Jordan is ‘intimidating and attacking’ his office’s case against President Trump. The 50-page lawsuit, which was filed earlier this week, is over three times longer than the filing against Trump. Bragg’s office must have been busy. He has no time to lock up real criminals, but instead he continues to engage in a political battle against Trump and other Republicans. Apparently the Soros-backed Bragg is too busy to prosecute actual criminals. Expect crime in New York City to worsen.". . .

"He blamed Bragg for slow-walking the case and offering one of the attackers a 'sweetheart' deal and Nadler for not stepping in to advocate for his son.  

" 'You're a Jewish New Yorker,' Borgen said in comments directed to Nadler. 'I called your office numerous times. I called Mr. Schumer's office, another Jewish New Yorker, numerous times.'
