MRKHvoice has been suspended from Twitter. She has an intersex condition and has been relentlessly abused on Twitter by TRAs for not capitulating to their ridiculous appropriation of intersex as “proof” that there are more than two sexes.

Now Twitter have banned her.

I’m livid.

I particularly like this from anyabike's thread on the ban of Claire:

In an era where we aren’t supposed to identify a person’s sex, Twitter seems to be pretty good at identifying and banning people of one particular sex

Perfect!

How many of us have been suspended/banned from Twitter? I have. I refuse to go back.

MRKHvoice is very impressive. Young bright and articulate who seems to have fallen inadvertently into a position of providing a rational intersex voice, challenging those who decide to speak for her.

Why are our main political parties not trying to recruit people like her, Fionne Orlander or Rose of Dawn if they are so determined to put forward intersex or TG candidates. Their capacity to recognise other people’s needs and their willingness to listen would make them far more electable than Aimee Challenor or Lily Madigan.

I've also just got a 7 day ban for saying Lesbians are female homosexuals.

Wtf? How is that hate speech? Twitter is such a toilet

ScrimshawTheSecond · 27/04/2019 17:05

Twitter is over.

Of course she was banned; she speaks the truth and crushes people with the facts.

Twitter like to ban women for speaking the truth or even questioning the TRA dogma. I'm permanently suspended. MRKH is amazing and should not have been banned 😠

I see absolutely no way that the tweet in question even breaks any rules?

Silenced for speaking the truth, not hate. All the people monitoring, and then hitting the "report post" button know it too.
