As a trans person, I like to remind everyone you are not just allowed but encouraged to deadname Twitter
Calling it deadnaming implies Twitter chose the name X. Twitter did not make that decision, thus calling Twitter Twitter is in no danger of offending Twitter.
Going to deadname Twitter as long as musk is deadnaming his daughter
Oohhh that’s a good one.
...what the heck is "deadnaming"?
Using a trans persons's birth name rather than their preferred name. If done purposefully, it's extremely insulting.
Thanks, I hadn't heard the term.
Doesn’t have to be a trans person
Ooh. Excellent point. I will be disrespectfully deadnaming Twitter from now on.
As a cisgender person I'm so sorry for the shit other cisgender write on Twitter
Your virtue signal is a little bright. You should adjust the wattage.
I'm sorry I did not understand? Sarcasm perhaps?
Are you asking whether you're sorry?
Isn't that hypocritical?
Only if you think corporate branding is equal to personal identification.
But... but corporations are more important than individuals
And corpos are people! Right?... Right?
