Tumblr's reply to the situation with CEO's transphobia is pathetic and you should not be thanking them for doing the bare minimum of saying he's not speaking for them. They fucking thanked that bitch.
The affected trans women are still banned.
A transphobic manchild offered no proper apology. Or stopped. He is also still in his position.
Tumblr is still factually transphobic. Keep pushing.
Yet another deleted blog, fantastic
They know what they’re doing. They know exactly what they’re doing when they see their users speaking out and nuke them. There is no error or compromise here, this is active malice on staff’s part and they will continue to treat black and trans bloggers like dirt if you just let them.
To anyone who still had any doubt: here you go. Nothing has changed and tumblr staff is still censoring any criticisms, still hasn’t reversed any of the ridiculous bans, still hasn’t added any kind of new tools for dealing with harassment.
Staff lied about almost every promise on their “apology” post. Nothing has changed and at this point I don’t think anything will change unless we keep making a fuss about it.
Don’t ever stop talking about this. Blow it up every fucking time it happens.
@staff DID YOU REALLY THINK THAT WOULD WORK?
HELLO! My name is Jenny, a she her transbian. My first blog was JammerJenny, which was deleted by @staff because of this post, along with my subsequent blog Yaoivriska the next day because I had commented on it again and because I had dared to ask for my old blog back. I was completely nuked a third time for commenting on the post above.
These are deliberate acts of retaliation on @staff’s part in an effort to silence poc and trans bloggers and it will NEVER work on me! These are the same bullying tactics you used against Rita and everyone else, and you’ve only made it clear that you don’t plan to deescalate.
I refuse to be bullied off of this site and I refuse @staff’s pathetic apology.
You want to win back our trust, @staff? Restore the deleted blogs who were criticizing Matt. Acknowledge your long history of targeting black and trans bloggers, of targeting fucking Palestinian bloggers, and for once get cracking on the actual bigots on this site. You might want to start with Matt.
I REFUSE TO FUCKING BUDGE, GIVE ME BACK JAMMERJENNY
