> > Happy Pride Month everyone! Remember 4 months ago when the CEO of this platform harassed and chased a trans woman off this website just for posting her transition timeline, then chased her to other social media platforms to continue harassing her, and threatened to call the FBI if she continued disputing the multiple dubious terminations of her blogs that did not violate tumblr’s terms of service in any way? And despite tumblr staff insisting that the CEO was acting against their interests, the broad transmisogyny evident in the site’s culture and moderation policy has still not been adequately addressed?

> Remember that staff is continuing to nuke the blogs of trans women even after all of this. Remember this post when they call this site the queerest place on the internet again this month

> We are well beyond canary in the coalmine warning levels with the way trans people and particularly trans women are treated on this site.

> Maybe you’ve heard the metaphor of allowing wolves and sheep to share the same space, welcoming everyone. You end up with just wolves because allowing them in that space makes it unsafe for any sheep. Or the story about how a nazi goes into a dive bar and is refused service. The bartender then explains to someone else at the bar that if you serve them once they tell their friends and before you know it you’re the nazi bar they all go to and normal customers don’t feel safe.

> Terfs and other bigots are seeing these targeted harassment campaigns succeed against trans women and rejoicing. They see Tumblr ban them and officially stand by those decisions as endorsement for their harassment. It’s a sign to bigots across the internet that Tumblr is a good place for them.

> And what’s more is that a lot of us probably don’t realize just how much trans women contribute to Tumblr. The women banned recently were sources of site-wide memes and posts I wasn’t even aware originated from them.any years old memes and references can be traced back to trans women on this site.

> How many of these folks have to be removed before this is no longer a site you want to be a part of it? Sure you cultivate your own experience, but you can’t follow or interact with people who aren’t here. And if I wanted to interact with the nazis and terfs I’d go to reddit.

> I encourage everyone to reblog this. Trans women shouldn’t have to be the only ones speaking out against the bigotry they’re experiencing. They shouldn’t be the only ones risking their blogs being nuked by staff. We have to stand with them.

> someone reblog this version for posterity. If the only copy is on my blog, that vanishes with me. I honestly doubt i’ll get smote but better safe than sorry yeah? I’ll be fine, but if I’m not, I’m making sure the crime scene is as damning as it gets.

> > this is about the blogger you’re thinking about. this is about the blogger who had thousands of followers and got nuked for no reason. this is about the one who was always kind and understanding and never did anything wrong, never broke TOS.

> > but it’s also about the blogger you’ve never heard of. it’s about the one on your DNI. this is about the mean one. the one you saw that callout post about. this is about the one who had maybe a few dozen followers at most. this is about the one who’s not white. this is about the “problematic” one. this is about the blogger who’s annoying, the one who complains all the time. this is about the one you have blocked. the one you reported.

> > staff only enforces the rules when they want to, on who they want to. i’ve had so many mutuals whose blogs were deleted just in the last couple months and all but two were transfems. it doesn’t matter who “broke TOS” or not (and clearly it doesn’t to staff, either) — no one deserves to get cut off from their community. stop fucking nuking my mutuals.

> This was posted yesterday. They’ve since nuked op.
