Elon Musk Says 'Cis,' 'Cisgender' Are Slurs On Twitter

....'Repeated, Targeted Harassment Against Any Account Will Cause The Harassing Accounts To Receive, At Minimum, Temporary Suspensions'....Twitter owner Elon Musk said using the terms “cis” or “cisgender” was considered a slur on the platform.....Commentator and co-founder of Thoughtful Therapists James Esses said he received a series of messages from transgender activists referring to him as “cis” and “cissy” after posting a tweet saying he rejected the term....“Just imagine if the roles were reversed,” Esses said.

...On Wednesday afternoon, Esses revealed he had been “bombarded with death wishes” and received direct messages from users calling him “f@ggot” and “cissy.”....“All because I dared to reject an ideological label being imposed upon me....These people, who are so quick to throw the word ‘bigot’ need to take a long, hard look in the mirror....The term ‘cis’ is used as a slur, to shut down dissent, to compel adherence to ideology and to force people into boxes....I formally and publicly declare that I reject the label of ‘cis.’ I don’t believe in gender ideology. I don’t self-identify as ‘cis,'”....Using this term makes me feel unsafe and is demonstrative of your hatred towards me....Anyone who uses the term ‘cis’ to describe me is a bigot....”

I thought it was South Park who coined the term "cissie" in  the episode when Cartman declared himself transginger and started using the girl's lavatory.

Targeted harassment has always been a violation of twitter's TOS.

The first thing Musk did when he took over was to restore numerous accounts that were guilty of targeted harassment. Goldfish brains can’t remember anything apparently.

Andrew Tate, rapist and human trafficker, was one of the first people he reinstated, along with many other disgusting doxxers and harassers. So don’t give me that crap.

It's almost as if you're revising history.

Also, I don't think you have any idea what free speech means. You probably should sit this one out. In fact, you should sit all of them out.

Hmm please tell me what I got wrong.

Side note: Musk fanboys are the lamest, most pathetic cucks in the universe. They even pay $8 a month hoping that a dude who will literally never give a about them just might notice them one time.

Cartman was ahead of his time.

You can’t call people phag on Twitter so this seems fair

So? "Cis" and "cisgendered" have been added to the list of slurs that will not be tolerated if used to harass someone. Not sure why that got your panties in a bunch. Only phaggots and the mentally ill use that term anyway.

Turning the weapon back on to your people seems to be off-putting......curious....

I am a left leaning, moderately 'woke', white straight middle age dude from the midwest.

I think Elon might be overreaching a little bit, but it's his company, so it's his prerogative. 

I believe strongly in respecting fellow human beings (except here, of course) and at least attempting to conform to their wishes about pronouns and such. So I've got zero problem with people that don't want to be addressed as 'cis', other than I think EVERYONE gets offended too easily these days.

Also no problem with how Rowling is handling herself.

In many ways the pendulum has swung too far to the opposite side, to the point where it's not okay to call out bigotry perpetrated against those that have historically BEEN the perpetrators.

The idiots on the left no longer believe in free speech, instead have bought in the authoritarian bastard belief that the government can define truth and ban dissent.   As if that philosophy does not have over a thousand year history of oppression and death.

its not about free speech to the left.  its about running guilt trips and personal attacks until the public willingly accepts a communist dictatorship.  if they cry about protecting free speech, its only for that reason..

 I see no problem with it.  Its Musks platform, he can do what he wants on it.  Of course, he'd look like a douche if he supresses this type of "hate" speech while ignoring other types.

I think people should be able to use language as they see fit. I understand he wants to introduce fairness into a system seeking to subjugate others but participating and reciprocating in kind back towards liberals is perhaps not the best way

Elon Musk says he bought X to save humanity from ‘zombie apocalypse’

....Elon Musk has claimed that he bought Twitter in a quest to save civilization from a “zombie apocalypse” in a.... three-hour interview with Joe Rogan.....During the podcast, the duo brought up the subject of cancel culture while Mr Musk claimed that X helps “freedom of speech”....When Mr Rogan asked Mr Musk why he had decided to buy Twitter, the controversial tech billionaire responded with a lofty reason: to ultimately save the world....."This is going to sound somewhat melodramatic, but I was worried that it was having a corrosive effect on civilization.... that it was having a bad impact," he said.

Mr Musk said he believes that there is a “mind virus” spreading through an “information technology weapon” that is leading to the “end of civilization”.....Social media has spread this “virus”, he claimed, causing people to act like zombies.....“If you walk around downtown San Francisco, right near the X/Twitter headquarters, it’s a zombie apocalypse. I mean, it’s rough,” he added.....The two lamented that they have both been subjected to “cancel culture”, with Mr Rogan explaining that the “mind virus” does not allow for any opposing views because it “doesn’t stand up to scrutiny”.

“It was important to have at least one social media outlet that wasn’t cancelling people,” Mr Musk replied....
