GDPR and lost "likes" on JKR's Twitter posts

I have close family members who are still very much in thrall to genderism, I wonder if they have seen my name?
They probably have as I am openly GC irl. I wonder if they have helped compile data on me, or have they quietly said nothing? I wonder how they feel about this?

Wow, welcome to 2022 women.

Its a horryifying new world.

A list of user names posting the most on trans issues on mumsnet was complied a couple of years ago.

Oh yes, the web scraper creep.

Being in mind the attitude of these TRAs is to create a list of "problematic women."

Some they provide for blocking on twitter. Others are lists of names shared - which has concerned many of us in the past. Mainly as women have been targeted in appalling manners and physically through real life doxxing, sending unwanted things to addresses etc. Not just women; as the Glinner article upthread details, a teacher of young people with autism was so badly harassed by tras that he lost his job.

Whole other thing to simply muting or unfollowing people who annoy you.

And you can also substitute ‘annoying’ or whatever other negative descriptor you want?

Yes housemaus, but do you use a block list of predetermined ‘bad people’ to do it? Made by other people’s interpretation.

Or do you make a choice for yourself based on what you personally see and judge from there.

I find it odd that you assume otherwise. I block anyone on social media who I find even slightly annoying because why would I spend my 'pointless relaxing scrolling time' being annoyed?

The latest thing my Twitter is doing is the app informs me of 19 likes and then there are none.

It's such a tell isn't it? I love to see it

Ha ha, good to know which tras are monitoring us insignificants.

Good to know we are being discussed in some closed group. We must really rip their knitting.

Weird how so many fellow "TRAs" were all blocked by the usual "Gender Critical" accounts at the time. Accounts that didn't follow "Cult Blocker Pro"

FYI, I don't use a group block and I don't block trans activists by default. But if an account uses 'terf blocker' and blocks me, or puts me on a list such as 'terf cunts' or similar, I block them.

This block list that is used by "GC people" has it ever been mentioned on this board before?

You would think it would have been mentioned when there have been discussions about echo chambers.

Nevertheless it would seem some safe spaces/echo chambers are more valid than others.

plus ça change

The best thing to do is close your twitter account and leave them to their misogynistic sausage fest. twitter is a toxic hole.

perhaps in a few months we can all look in to see just how mental they all are in their echo chamber, they are sure to deteriorate and become increasingly sexist once they think no one else is looking.

they are doing an excellent job of getting hoisted by their own petard as it is.

And yet…. A person proud of their contribution to creating a ‘safe’ bubble for people to interact in is right here accusing us of being in an echo chamber.

😂 Yes.

I’d wondered why my likes kept disappearing before my eyes. I’ve actually filmed it a few times to be sure I wasn’t imagining it. Hmmmm.

People who resort to using block lists lack the maturity to participate in social media forum they have chosen to use.

It is as simple as that.

If someone cannot handle discussion about the things they say on social media, they shouldn’t be on that platform. If they feel they need to be protected and ‘safe’, they need to consider just how poor their mental health is and seek help.

The hypocrisy is hilarious.

Yeah. Cos we are female, James. Not stupid. We recognise TRAs and, as individuals, choose to block them from our accounts.

We don't need a list. We have eyes!

Well, this thread certainly brought all the they/thems to the yard.

@newnamesa

There's a Gender Critical block list?

And they say it’s GC people that live in an echo chamber 🙄

The thing is, when you are considering a child's presentation vis a vis comfort with their sexed body in early childhood as part of the evidence for a theory such as ROGD, you do need to consider parental memories. I would imagine that a 14 year old natal female who "comes out" as trans is likely to reinterpret their childhood through this lens. They aren't likely to say "oh no I was perfectly happy as a girl until I hit puberty". Whereas a parent will have clear memories of the child's early preferences as a toddler things- they said, questions they asked, etc in a way that most of us simply don't accurately recall of our own todlerhood and early childhood.

OP, I say go for it. It costs nothing to submit a GDPR request, and if someone can work out the wording and share a template then it's easy for all six of us and our sock puppets to do the same.
Oolon claiming it can't be done just means he can't work out how it could be done for all his alleged techspertise, or possibly just more STFU for women pointing out what we can see is happening in front of us. Probably both.

Oh, now I see. Thanks WarriorN.
