This Wednesday, Elon Musk called for the death sentence for transgender youth care providers. It was in reply to a post calling for full criminalization of all gender-affirming surgery. Musk is becoming even more radicalized in targeting trans people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Elon Musk Calls For “Death Sentence” for GAC Providers

Musk’s posts are not just inflammatory rhetoric. They have real-life consequences.

it is deeply funny (read: extremely not funny) how the spreadsheet that aaron posted about how hard it is to be the head of trust & safety includes multiple (!) examples of him being told to "enjoy the camps" and related expressions. Almost Like That Sentiment Is Always Bad, Aaron.

Saying you can threaten trans people with camps? That’s fine. Telling the hard of trust and safety that there’s been an uptick in this behavior and telling him he’s to blame? Verboten, you’re suspended. Fuck this platform.

For context here, a user was responding in a thread to other users (unrelated to the original post) when they used the phrase
"Trans rights or Trans camps. You chose the camps and you're blaming Dems" followed by profanity.

Are they threatening trans users directly?
No. Trans folks in the US have been targeted repeatedly. That's awful and you have my sympathy.
Within the context of a single post we wouldn't consider it a direct threat or targeting a protected category. le send trans folks to concentration camps.

So far as I can tell, Aaron Rodericks, head of Trust and Safety's definition of "abuse" and his reason for mass blocking people is people who have replied or QTed him more than once and disagree with him.

People are pointing out (understandably) that there’s an irony or inconsistency here, but of course there isn’t really: the entire point of far right politics is that they (favoured group) have a right to do & say what they want, and you (opponent/ other unfavoured person) have no rights at all
