@vozercozer I'mma try to summarize as best as I can from what I saw unfold. Basically, tumblr has had an issue for a while now where trans womens pictures and accounts are reported as explicit and automatically moderated. It doesn't matter if it's nudity within TOS or fully-clothed transition timelines.

One trans woman was hit especially hard by tumblrs moderation system, like they nuked her entire account and flagged all her pictures as being in violation of TOS, down to random innocent memes.

The CEO comes out with this statement where he a) they/them her and b) claim that she was banned for violently threatening the staff.

That's not what they said she was being banned for initially and there's not really any evidence for that apart from some over the top "I hope you die"-type statements clearly said in anger.

Several other trans women have gotten their accounts just nuked for criticizing the CEO about this and he's also crept into just random peoples DMs to try and defend himself, really just throwing his weight around.

@vozercozer Oh yeah, and the CEO also threatened to call the cops on her. Like, it's hard to properly convey just how ridiculous the situation is and just how petty the CEO is being.

hazelnot :yell:

@Owlor @vozercozer not just the cops, the FBI, over her basically saying "I hope a car covered in hammers explodes and the hammers hit you repeatedly"

Like, genuinely cartoony type of stuff
