Need a reason to believe that it’s a horrible, no good, awful idea for social media companies to determine what constitutes “hate speech”? Look no further.
Meet Meghan Murphy. She’s a feminist who was suspended from Twitter for suggesting that women aren’t men and men aren’t women.
The HORROR, right?
You KNOW it’s bad if a modern day feminist is saying this, but she’s right. How is it hateful to say that MEN ARE MEN AND WOMEN ARE WOMEN??????? That’s “hate speech”?
She continued:
What ARE we allowed to say here??? How tf is simply saying ‘men aren’t women’ hateful??? I am losing my goddamned mind over this. Enjoy your brave new world, sjws. Here’s your f***ing social justice … I’m assuming my account is going to get locked again simply for speaking about this. But this is not f***ing ok and I’m not going to let it go silently … Trans activists have been targeting my account for a few months now. Either someone at Twitter or with an in at Twitter has been combing through old tweets and reporting them for “hateful conduct.” Twitter seems to instantly shut my account down without a second thought.
Well, it sounds like this is more than a suspension. She’s been BANNED.
My friend and feminist comrade Meghan Murphy has been banned from Twitter for saying a man is a man and not a woman. Let's make a massive stand against this bullshit!

I gave birth to 3 children. Only FTM trans people can accomplish this. Because women have uteruses & ovaries. #Science

Yeah, well, science is hateful and sexist.
Stating biological fact is hate speech and can get you banned from Twitter. Good to know.
I think this is one of those rare moments where people on both sides of the aisle can come together and stand up against Twitter’s sheer stupidity. Stating biological fact is not “hateful.” For crying out loud…
