Peados Jessica Yaniv and Aimee Challenor are both verified. Not famous, just trans males.

Yaniv lost his verified status after he got outed as a creep, and it's well known generally that you can get verified status just for being a good ally or whatever.

The Bluecheck is the modern mark of aristocracy.

Bluechecks are our nobles, our better than commoners. I hear they can even turn us off and only use twitter amongst themselves. Just like when they used to retreat to their country estates.

I don't see anything wrong with this? Twitter's blue checkmark is a sign of an exceptional degenerate even compared to general Twitter users crowd. "Reward" seems well-deserved.

Blue-checks are publishers and Twitter should be civilly and criminally liable for anything they write.
