Twitter removes policy against deadnaming transgender people

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Twitter has quietly removed a policy against the “targeted misgendering or deadnaming of transgender individuals,” raising concerns that the Elon Musk-owned platform is becoming less safe for marginalized groups.
Twitter enacted the policy against deadnaming, or using a transgender person’s name before they transitioned, as well as purposefully using the wrong gender for someone as a form of harassment, in 2018.

On Monday, Twitter also said it will only put warning labels on some tweets that are “potentially” in violation of its rules against hateful conduct. Previously, the tweets were removed.
It was in this policy update that Twitter appears to have deleted the line against deadnaming from its rules.
“Twitter’s decision to covertly roll back its longtime policy is the latest example of just how unsafe the company is for users and advertisers alike,” said Sarah Kate Ellis, the president and CEO of the advocacy group GLAAD.
“This decision to roll back LGBTQ safety pulls Twitter even more out of step with TikTok, Pinterest, and Meta, which all maintain similar policies to protect their transgender users at a time when anti-transgender rhetoric online is leading to real world discrimination and violence.”

Still waiting for someone to tell me what rights that Trans/LGBTQASBLmnop#(@7 people don't have that every other person in our society has.

Elon also said that trans people that targeted kids should be in prison
I’m liking him more and more every day!

The mental illness of being a transvestite aside, if someone has such a heightened level of sensitivity that being called a gender they disagree with damages them psychologically, then to be fair then don't need to be on social media. They need to get help.

Feel free to leave Twitter then, Felicia.

They need to have the same rights as guns.

When the only thing that can be hurt is their feelings, the environment isn't unsafe.

Wait so you couldn't call a dude that dressed like a girl a dude before and that was "using the wrong gender"? This person is mentally ill.

So, here’s a thought ….
If you’re concerned it’s not safe, don’t use it.

still trying to figure out how calling a man 'he' is 'unsafe'. what does that even mean?
you know what, if that offends you, just leave twitter and marginalize yourselves even further.
