Folks, get off Twitter. I don’t care where you go, be it Bluesky or the Fediverse, but leave Twitter.
Your continued involvement on Twitter supports this.

For the context, it would be beneficial to add the post he replied to.
And this is what gay men must tolerate every single day from porn-addicted fujoshi girls and trans activists.
@ramsey Seethe harder, fag
The wrong things I see:
1. Not respecting a person refusing a term to define them
2. Harrassing that person
3. Sharing a reply without the context because it is embarrassing that trans can harrass
4. Saying that cis and cisgender are considered slur no matter the context
Fair enough?
@alexl @ramsey What is wrong with the word or designation? I thought it was a scientific term. 🤔 Was this term or the English word cisgender not introduced in 1994 by the biologist Dana Leland Defosse?
Context:
@alexl The problem I see in the reply of Musk: To avoid saying that it is targeted harassment to call someone by a label they reject, Musk says that cis is a slur.
The simple answer by Musk that would not have been hostile to trans people would have been to say that not respecting the wish to be misnamed is a slur.
And then rightfully banning all those who harassed.
But for that he would have had to acknowledge the right of trans-people not to be misgendered.
