- vingate 4y agoThe author of the tweet claims that targeted harassment is now allowed, but the Bloomberg article he quoted discusses targeted misgendering. I am pointing out that these are different, and that permitting the latter doesn't necessarily remove restrictions on the former.
- wahnfrieden 4y agoyou sound confused / focused on something off topic, misgendering and deadnaming no longer counts as harassment per policy change
- vingate 4y agoWell, in addition to the Bloomberg article, the only example posted by the author is a tweet from Jordan Peterson, who was talking about, and not directly to, a public figure. That tweet demonstrates targeted misgendering and deadnaming, but not targeted harassment.
- wahnfrieden 4y agoTargeted misgendering and deadnaming is a form of harassment. Musk has changed twitter policy so that it’s not considered a form of harassment anymore by them. Hope you got it now

- yucky 4y agoIsn't that the difference between confirming to a schizophrenic that you believe them when they say they hear voices vs pretending that the voices they hear are real? Not meant as an offensive analogy, trying to understand how it's different. Third party perception won't necessarily match first party perception.

- yucky 4y agoI'm just stating a fact, there is no reason to get upset or call names. We're all adults here.
- wahnfrieden 4y agoYou’re playing hateful (disguised in civil language) rw culture war games based on fringe talking points which ought to be more unwelcome here. You’re pathetic
- SideburnsOfDoom 4y agoWhile I respect your common-sense position, expressed in the pithy comment above, you are sadly going to fall afoul of the site rules thereby (1) It is probably more useful in the long term to read those rules and suggestions, and learn how to use that system instead. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
