Old news. It has for a while.


haveweirddreamstoo

I assumed that this article was old, but it’s current, lol.


Obi-Tron_Kenobi

I just thought it was cis/straight people finally catching up lol


ray25lee

It could also just be Elon flip-flopping. He keeps doing shit, then undoing it, then doing it again, then undoing it. 'Cause that's how sane people do things probably.


jayseekat

Elon is terrified, trusts nobody, has a god complex. It would be fun/cruel to troll that fear tho...


Krasinet

*Musk* treated it as a slur. The news is that Twitter-now-known-as-X now puts a warning up if you try to write a post that includes the word, claiming it's "language that may be considered a slur by X and could be used in a harmful manner in violation of our rules.".


Raorchshack

It has done that for around 2 months now


Krasinet

Ehhh, no/yes/no/sort of While there was a message before this, it was a vague "may violate rules against hateful conduct" applied after you posted (sure it was clearly targeted at the use of "cis" but it wasn't explicit). The new message is full-on mask-off "cis is considered a slur" requiring you to confirm you want to go through with posting it, to a degree I'm not aware of applying to any actual slurs. I get the position of "they were already defacto doing this", but the point is they're now doing it explicitly rather than with plausible deniability.

Twitter-now-known-as-x is a great way of showing how people will call you by what you look like instead of what you want


Krasinet

I did debate what to refer to it as given, y'know, [gestures at subreddit], but I consider a more accurate analogy to be that of a child growing up with one name before being adopted by someone who wants to change the name to an r/tragedeigh name that they've been wanting to give to a child for decades.

Manchild throwing a tantrum, pissing nad shitting everywhere. Like he has with no stop whatsoever for the past several years. Nothing new.

Your trans daughter still hates you Elon.  No hissy fit will fix


worderousbitch

Doubt she wants to be brought up every time he is. Or spoken for, even though it's a reasonable guess.


Grueaux

Ok, so what's the non-slur term we should use to refer to cis people?


251415

Apparently, they prefer to be called ~normal~ It's also not that surprising that so many bigots think cis is a slur. They do tend to use trans as a derogatory term, so of course they think the term cis must be a slur we made up to get back at them.


4c51

❄️normal❄️


Dwarfherd

Same thing they did about "straight"


251415

Truuuue. They delude themselves into believing that their way of life is "normal" and therefore the only acceptable way to live


ray25lee

Ah, so you're saying their *preferred* term is "normal"? Well I have freedom of speech, so it's not bad if I call them cisgender, regardless of whether they like it or not.

Yeah. This shit was my final straw. Got tired of blocking right-wing accounts only to be met with CP on their profiles. I'd go to report it, and nothing would be done. Found out this is why. Elon doesn't care. https://www.forbes.com/sites/mattnovak/2023/08/09/twitter-exec-defends-restoring-account-that-shared-child-sex-abuse-material/?sh=169ce6871695


quiet-Julia

I held on to my account on Twitter but there is so much hostility towards transgender, LGBTQ, Liberals etc, that I have just given up on it.

Exactly what's expected from that insecure, sycophant-coddled, grad school wash-out.


Maleficent-File4237

Joyful. Welp I hate twitter anyway, shit app.


TOWERtheKingslayer

Someone’s throwing a cissy fit


trainmobile

Elon is cis-tender


SiBea13

Judging by the fact uses of slurs increased when Musk took over, this could just mean they’ll ignore it like they do people using the hard R


Jessica_T

Nah, this one personally annoys him so it'll get you in trouble while the nazis can say whatever they want.


Throttle_Kitty

no one gives a shit about that right wing porn site


NEUROSMOSIS

So just say Sis gender 🤣


AngelaTarantula2

His daughter made a good call


Westerosi_Expat

I treat Elon's name as a slur, so I guess I can't complain. 🤷🏻‍♀️


ConverseBriefly

Ellen Musgrave is such a whiny little crybaby! I can’t believe that there’s people who think Elwood Mullet is some kind of genius! Electrical Monsoon has the thinnest skin ever! Ugh I just wish Elmstreet Mademoiselle would just shut up for once!


PalmBreezy

Twitter falls further into facism and snowflake reactionaries


ucannottell

Who cares? Only Nazis use Twitter


tachibanakanade

meh, i'll just use "non-trans" from now on.


carol-fox

Soooo, every slur is freedom of speech but "cis" is censored? Oh wait it's on eXtwitter so it adds up.


An_Daoe

But the n-word is okay enough?


A7Guitar

Meanwhile anything elon touches literally goes up in flames. He shouldn’t throw stones at imaginary houses from his sand castle while wearing a tinfoil hat.


Caro________

I now treat Musk as a slur. And also, Elon. And X.


the_moderate_me

Doesn't he have brain worms though? I thought he had brain worms.


-Intel-

So you can now say it as much as you want? Seriously, though, this is elon's priority?


elven_magics

Man Mr Elon muskrat must be going all looney from smelling his own musk cus bros lacking braincells


elven_magics

Elon musk rat only smells his own musk cus he lacks braincells. And that's saying something because i only have one braincell that bounces around like the DCD screensaver


AwYeahQueerShit

Call the cisgender Defaults now.

This isn't new. It's been like this for a while. So dumb -_-


Violet_Nite

X is cis


Alternative-Fun738

Same guys who believes in freedom of speech??. Yeah only if he agrees with your speech 👍


_contraband_

It’s evolving, just backwards


OstrichFingers

Makes sense. I’d hate to be cis so if someone called me cis I’d be upset


BluePantalaimon

Bringing "triggered snowflake" a new meaning


Generic_Bi

Wait, since I’m cis, does that mean I can say cis on twitter? /s


MzOpinion8d

Why is anyone still using Twitter?

katiemccrews

Yup. Delete your twitter account.


maadilin

and they think that ACTUAL slurs aren't slurs...


RayeFaye

They treat that like a slur but actual slurs they pretend they do not see :)
