Who Is Being Harmed By "Deadnaming," and How?

Libs love victimhood

I already went on a big long rant last week about refusing to use Ezra Miller’s preferred pronouns, both because he’s a scumbag criminal and because I refuse to deny human biology. You’d think that would be the end of it! But the journos and their fellow libs just won’t listen.

This is the state of journalism in 2022 America:

Why is @Twitter allowing a trans person's deadname to appear on the trending topics, which explicitly violates their own policy on hateful conduct? https://t.co/vBChg2MgsJ

New from me: Elliot Page’s deadname appeared as a trending topic, violating Twitter’s own hateful conduct policy. Twitter said it was a mistake and “has since been removed and prohibited from appearing in Trends.”

So we’ve got two things going on here: Twitter has written a rule against hurting certain people’s feelings, and journalists think it’s their job to enforce ideological purity. They’re on a crusade to stop “deadnaming,” which is a melodramatic way to complain about calling someone a name they don’t use anymore. For example, you mustn’t call Caitlyn Jenner “Bruce,” even though he called himself “Bruce” for almost 70 years and we’ve got the Wheaties boxes to prove it. That’s “deadnaming.” And to hear libs talk, it’s worse than murder.
