I have noticed that there are a ridiculous amount of accounts on Tumblr in radical feminist spaces that claim to be young detransitioners.

At first, I believed the accounts I saw. But as I observed more and more, I noticed a lot of strange and implausible stories. I know some trans people start E or T in their late teens, and surgery is possible, but the quantity of accounts claiming to have had top surgery at 16 or having had a friend have top surgery before 18 does not match with the numbers.

I’ve also noticed a sick eagerness to lie, and also to make fake accounts to send themselves disgusting things to react to.

I’m really concerned about this. There’s this strange ecosystem where teenage girls are interacting with bad actors, and I don’t think this radicalization pipeline is quite studied in the same way Gamergate was. The Rowling stuff is part of it, but it’s a lot more complicated. People need to start deradicalizing Gen Z/Alpha girls and women.

    oof i am sorry your conversations are so sterile and chopped into unconnected pieces

    In online spaces, they generally have always been. As a kid, I noticed that the majority of users are incapable of connecting the dots between one point and another

    That isn’t a dog whistle, that is just a whistle fyi

    Dammit, I edit in segments and forgot to add my link. Fixing after I reply. The argument that art is birthed from struggle is not unique. Wealthy, experientially stunted thieves were the original “AI.”

      This reads like it was written by AI, and the logic is full of holes like AI answers typically are too.

        Not as much of an argument of Theseus as an unconnected set of thoughts. I don’t generally write in essay format online anymore and don’t care to begin again. Also, rude.

        Edit: should have checked your modlog first. My bad
