Bombardment of hate on Social Media


CelaTracy23

Recommended Posts

I just spent an hour unsubscribing to, and making sure I don't receive any more video links for not just trans phobics but real trans haters out there on YouTube.   Not sure how I started to receive so many, perhaps my algorhythmn from searching topics  but geez, there are some real abusive jerks on YouTube that don't even deserve to be given the time of day.   But some of the remarks from these conservative commentators out there are seriously abusive.   To one young transwoman I wrote that she should consider suing a commentator for defamation.    Their display of just about every cognitive distortion is absurd - and they have their fans, some have up to 3 million subscribers.   These were people like Matt Walsh, Candace Owens, Odins Men,  The Daily Wire, Ben Shapiro.   If you have never heard of any of them, more power to you!

Hopefully now that I reworked my YouTube site I won't get anymore videos suggested on my homepage.   And move on from this crap.   My therapist recommended I quit watching and absorbing negative news.  At the same I would like to see these people sued for their hate speeches, I also realize there will always be haters out there.  This past year though has been the worst ever it seems for ther trans community.  It's time for me to absorb more positive news.

I have recently started following some of the YT Shorts made by some of my favorite trans influencers. The hate that some of the conservative commenters spew is absolutely intolerable. In fact, it’s to the point now where I simply avoid the comment section altogether because of the idiocy and ignorance posted there.

 

As far as the algorithms YT uses, I have no idea how they decide what to present to us next but I know it’s not based on anything I’ve ever chosen or showed an interest. Currently, YT has been bombarding me with video’s showing Komodo Dragon’s swallowing goats whole. I’ve never liked or commented on one but YT serves those Komodo Dragon videos up as if it’s my life’s passion.🤔

While I do not know the YT algorithm I do know that other searches for actual Trans information show the really nasty stuff on the first return, all of it falling into the Porn category.  The WHY of that is simple I am afraid, the Porn is the most looked for material from many parts of the country, none of them ostensibly Trans friendly in a tiny bit.  We stand as in the same light as any adult entertainer to them, and while they crave it with drooling faces, they claim we are at fault for their lechery.  The want us forced out of public approval and back into their waking self indulgence when no one else is watching them.  My late brother was an Adult Entertainment Junkie and stuff I cleaned off his computer when I got it as the administrator of his estate just made me shake my head.  He had trouble with my Transition but needed my family help and was at least civil, but he had Trans videos he had downloaded.  I saw the bills and easily realized why he was always needing extra money.  UGH.  Nevertheless it is BIG profitable BUSINESS.

The more each side fights what they don’t believe in, the  more the war. 
 

Spewing hate  and influencing decay  to  the end. 
 

thank you for allowing me in this space to spew.

There does seem like there has been a recent change. If you typed in “transgender” up until recently on YouTube, there would be many personal sites, people talking about transition, makeup and hair tips, surgeries, their transition timelines, etc. Now the same search pulls up very little, if any, of that, but instead, lots of anti-trans hate content. I am not sure if this represents a change in the algorithm by YouTube, censorship, or creators are becoming more fearful and not making pro-trans content, or maybe the anti-trans people are pushing harder to get their messages out. Maybe all of that.

 

Social media, the news, and entertainment sites all seem to have degraded severely over the years as evidenced by the comments in the comments sections. For those of us who create online content, that can mean going offline for a time and shutting off/deleting inappropriate comments.

      As far as I'm aware, he wasn't -- he just sometimes wore skirts, which was why it was a question in the first place.   In my opinion, part of that is because of the way press spares attention on issues like that. As a bit of a true crime nut and what I see: Child predator cases' (and cases of a sexual nature in general) press focus on those with an AMAB perpetrator generally, and very rarely are AFAB perpetrators given much press time or even getting tried due to a whole bunch of issues I'm not gonna get into. Because of this, when you see these types of cases and a boy is the victim, it's almost always a queer person who is the one who committed a crime that gets press. Therefore, with the amount of cases seen with this type of perpetrator (and due to the fact "99% of queer people are not sexual criminals" doesn't attract eyes), the human brain can kind of naturally makes an association with it. It's not right, but it's also a fault I think falls partially on the media.   That's all my opinion, though!   This is extra confusing to me, as a feminine man is usually viewed as gay. If someone is refusing the acknowledge the existence of trans people, then gay would be the societal connection that comes after, I think. So, that sorta implies that trans women wouldn't be interested in women in the first place by those assumptions? Of course, trans lesbians exist (most trans women I know like women, actually), but it's a little ridiculous to me that people will deny trans people's existence, call all feminine AMAB people gay, and say that trans people are looking to peep all in the same breath.   Wow, this was a lot longer of a response than I was planning to write--

      For one thing, the practice of putting into office wholly unqualified people simply because of racial, sexual or national characteristics.  It is no accident that Karine is a Haitian immigrant, Black and lesbian.  Kamala Harris is a Black female. Pete Buttigieg is gay.  Often you find that Biden explicitly stated that this is why he hired them, not because of competence, but because they checked so many boxes on his little list.  It makes a mockery of people and is a disservice to the US.

      I am not sure why people are in favor of unaccountable agencies with bloated budgets and wasteful spending.

      What about it?

      Hey girl  I had a problem like you happen to me also. In my first year of estrogen I had a period where my level were good then they got really bad where my testosterone spike high.  I felt like you with all that disforia coming hard. Our bodies need time to adjust. The process is a real pain in the beginning. It levels out eventually and you don't even think about it. Hang in there hugs

      Biden's woke agenda?

      I wonder if there will be law enforcement procedural shows coming this fall. I can imagine Law and Order: Genital Crimes Unit, or perhaps, FBI: Domestic Genitalia. Then again, maybe they will dedicate a CSI program about the dedicated members of the Oklahoma State Police Genital Screening Unit. Good to know that those Oklahomans have their priorities squared away.

      Protections? Well, when they mandate that some who is transgender can get facial and genital electrolysis paid as it is essential to affirming care, or when they mandate and pay for facial feminization surgery, speech therapy/voice affirmation surgery, I will believe that the order is effective. One of biggest hurdles for many transgender individuals is the cost of care. I remember when my one insurance company tried to say that my speech therapy and voice surgery were "cosmetic". I remember when they blocked paying for my facial surgery. I remember the fight I had to get electrolysis. These procedures could save someone's life if the procedures help the individual successfully transition, and are no longer misgendered.

      I don't think it should be.  Nor do I see Project 2025 as pushing Christian nationalism.

      The agencies are supposed to work for him.  The problem, as conservatives found out in Trump 1, was they will ignore the president and do their own thing.  The agencies are supposed to be under his control.   Congress delegated some of its law making authority to the agencies, which is another problem.   The bloated federal government needs to be trimmed.  Dept Education is worthless - test scores have dropped since it was instituted in the Carter administration consistently, and it is currently implementing Biden's woke agenda more than doing anything else.

      I hope to eventually wear a suit for dance but don't know what exactly to look for. I feel like jumpsuit is safe option but I have been interested in wearing button up and formal pants. Is there a certain brand i should look for or sites I should look at for tips? My mom is not exactly keen on me wearing too masc clothing like suits just yet but is okay with jumpsuits. Also is there hair styling tips availible, my hair looks like image below. I might be able to get shorter haircut like pixie but am not sure yet.

      It’s never been about him, but he is the Presidential nominee for the Presidency that starts in…2025. I don’t see a lot of conflation that this is a “Trump doctrine”, it a doctrine that benefits him surely, but it is a plan to instill crony governance and enact very Christian conservative (if not purely Christian nationalist) “order” on the country. If you don’t see this as the Right doubling down on Big G government, I don’t know what to tell them. Getting rid of agencies and giving the authority directly to the Executive isn’t shrinking government. It’s consolidation power.

      It is the made up ideology they believe trans people are pushing on the world, those “poor young girls who are being coerced into believing they are men” and the “perverts who put on dresses and think they’re girls”. The anti-LGBTQ+ movement came up with the term. Being trans = you believe in trans ideology/transgenderism, supporting trans people = the same.   In the end anyone that acts on or thinks gender is anything but what is in your pants is a “transgenderist”, why not make it a word if it’s not, there is no real grey area. Unless you acknowledge there is transgenderism, but use your knowledge to “correct it”.  So I guess there could be transgenderist conversion “therapists”.  Face it, we deface the America they want. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave? I think being out and queer is pretty brave. And freedom shouldn’t just be for those who push a narrow “Christian ideology” as the “true” governing model.

      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
