My account, “the angry man” was abruptly terminated. I have done nothing that violates tumblrs terms of service.

The only pattern I see is that I have been routinely calling out TERFs, who have falsely been claiming to be detransitioners, have graduate degrees etc.

It appears that tumblr is actively hostile to people calling out transphobes. The site has decided to take a stand, and that stand is with Russian trolls.

Intersite drama. Boo.

This is less about intersite drama, and more that tumblr seems to be yet another social media platform which is hostile to trans people. I got banned because my account primarily calls out TERFs for doing things like manufacturing quotes and lying about academic studies.

The internet is becoming trans hostile, and there also seems to be a lot of usage of AI to pretend that transphobic ideas are more popular than they are. As well as historical revisionism - I was routinely fact checking people who claimed that the Nazis invented being trans.

It’s not that I give a shit about my account - it’s that there’s something more fucked up and insidious going on here.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
