So I just noticed that contrapoints deactivated her twitter account and seeing a lot of people on my feed today subtweet her. Really hard to keep up with any of this since I’ve been getting out of work real late this week and don’t look at social until I get home

Really depressing to see Contra throwing non passing and NB people under the bus do she can feel a bit more safer, as if transphobic bigots actually give a drat about whether a transperson passes. I'm glad her transitioning is going well but not all of us have her access to money nor do we have a loyal devoted base.

She doubled down harder on “these gen z non-binary transes are making it harder for me a distinguished transexual (yes she called herself transexual) to be accepted in society” and when she got called out on it she deleted her Twitter

as someone who admittedly does not pay much attention to contrapoints, every time she comes up i feel like she exists in some kind of twilight zone story where everything she says and does exists in a quantum state where one half of the population sees one thing and the other half sees something completely different

FlamingLiberal posted:To get back on topic, Lindsay is getting a book of hers published next year Cool to see something she’s probably been working on for years pitched as “[hot pop culture item X] meets [hot pop culture item Y].” Guess that’s why I’m not an agent. This is extremely cool and good. I look forward to reading it and feeling fresh hatred for Ernie Cline while thinking about how hard it probably was to get this book published while he just poo poo out any old garbage that all the editors probably compared her to while thinking it was a compliment. EDIT: why am I so negative? This looks like a good read and seems like the culmination of many years of hard work. Congratulations to Lindsay.

is there some sort of Posting Deadly Sins where responding to criticism with some variant of "poo poo, I didn't realize that, my bad" is the moral equivalent of drawing upside down crosses on every page of the holy bible while setting the vatican on fire?

We can agree to disagree on how we read Contra's tweets that started this whole thing yesterday - I could see where she was coming from, but I could also see how the same situation could be totally different for NB people. I get that. I don't get, however, why some people here and on twitter have been completely uncharitable regarding her wording. She could have worded things better, yes, but I don't expect her to curate every word she types like a corporate brand account. DEEP STATE PLOT posted:she doubled down, then tripled down, then deleted her twitter Kinda sucks that I missed this, because I would've liked to know what that looked like.

I would be significantly more charitable towards the "contrapoints is an idiot who doubled down and refuses to listen to criticism" argument if I hadn't spent the last 24 hours watching people get an unholy amount of harassment for giving even the slightest amount of defense. Like, people are out there calling loving Kat Blaque truscum cryptofash over this, there's no prominent good faith criticism happening for Contra to listen to. You all need to loving chill.
