If you can see this tweet, Dilbert Stark hasn't banned me yet.
(Note that I'm running a Firefox plugin that auto-blocks blue tick accounts. I assume @elonmusk is un-blockable—it's the sort of dick move he'd pull, he doesn't like being ignored—but I called him an ass, accused him of being cisgendered, and told him to fuck off. So we'll see!
Here's a screencap of my tweet, in case you want to see it but don't want to deliver hits to birdsite:
@cstross Wait. Isn't that saying literally that it is degrading not to be trans?
For a genius, he has trouble with logic.
@kierkegaank @cstross I think he has low self-esteem and a lot of the attacks are trying to increase his values by degrading others, like Trump. A sane person without an overbearing feeling of inferiority does not need to do this type of thing.
Apparently his father, who has married his sister, was a violent bully to him,as were his schoolmates.
I would feel sorry for him, if he weren't such a dick.
@rrb @kierkegaank @cstross yeah that’s the way I see it also. Maybe I’m projecting but it seems very apparent.
@rrb @cstross He is a bit of a know-nothing that relies on all the wrong sources to navigate the world. My initial guess is that he thinks that the cis prefix is a disparaging othering (of his gender status) by the trans community
