I hate to be a natal-fem Norah naysayer, but I think we have to rethink sarcastic titles like this. Seeing people posting the horrific stuff written on Parler makes me realise that GC Saidit can be made to look just as bad really easily.

Saidit is not a nice place and I think we should be really careful not to look like we're inciting violence even as a joke.

TRA rutinely engage in slurs, de-plataforming, propaganda, smears, doxing, geting people fired, death, rape or other kind of violence threats, and sometimes even actual physical violence. They are lobbying to erode our rights behind everyone's backs. They promote the medical abuse of children. And so on and so on. But we are the ones who need to be careful with our language in case someone miss the sarcasm in a tittle? Why? They are going to get mad no matter how nicely we expresss our views as long we question transgender ideology, and they are going to twist our words, anyway. And why does everyone care so much not to offend trans identified people, seriously? Everyone knows that men cannot be women or viceversa, and I don't know of any other group of people who is treated with so much deference.

I agree with this in spirit. To be fair to Parler - and for the record I wasn't a member - there is horrific stuff written on every social media site. The real issue is whether it's being moderated fairly and impartially, imo.
