Despite @elonmusk promising that the @realDailyWire film "What Is A Woman" by @MattWalshBlog wouldn’t be censored, it seems someone @Twitter staff chose to censor it anyways less than 20 minutes after it was posted. You can’t even comment. Whoever did this should be fired.

@MattWalshBlog You should be attacking the companies that abandoned Twitter advertising when @elonmusk brought equality back to Twitter, not Elon. He made the effort to create a level platform, and it cost him billions b/c a lot of CEOs support inequality. Attack those companies, instead.

I hope he does. But people also need to keep in mind that we didn’t go public with this right away. We tried to fix it behind the scenes. We’ve been in conversation with them. This was not some kind of fluke or glitch. It’s a very intentional decision by Twitter.
Jonas Walker@jonaswalkerlaw

@MattWalshBlog @elonmusk will fix this. We must be thankful, humble, and patient.

@Wikinow2 @tylerblack32 @kareem_carr From the OP: “It communicates clearly the fact that the rates at which white victims experience violent crime involving black offenders is very similar to the overall percentage of black people in the population (14.6%)”. His words. Looks like he edited the more direct tweet.

This thread is everything; i'm such a fan of @kareem_carr's work but this is such a great thread. When data is analysed by racists, it can be used as disinformation that perpetuates racism (Elon took a big bite here) When data is transparent and clear, the full story emerges.

I know a lot of you wanted a technical breakdown of this meme so here it is! I don't think you will find this level of detail anywhere else so keep reading if you don't want to miss out.

@Wikinow2 @tylerblack32 @kareem_carr No, according to Kareem’s theory, a full 60% of crimes against Hispanics should be perpetrated by whites, because 60% of the population is white. Hispanic v white is harder, btw, b/c stats are inconsistent in how they group (or don’t) white & Hispanic.

@kareem_carr I’m sorry, but *you* are being misleading here. Blacks are victimized by whites FAR below what population levels would assume in your model, whereas whites are victimized by blacks at close to the actual population levels. That is a big, important discrepancy.

In a truly race-blind society, where most of the people are white and where victims are being selected purely at random, the vast majority of crimes committed by black offenders *should* involve white victims. This should be our default hypothesis.

@0liviajulianna Statistically, this is one of the safest times in history to be alive. Situational awareness is always a good idea, but if it’s giving you anxiety that’s not a gun problem, it’s an emotion regulation problem.

I’ve spoken to so many of my peers who have the same instincts that I do, when we walk into a room we make an exit plan. Because the reality is at any moment it’s possible we could become the victims of gun violence.

@andrewvit @omni_american @feelsdesperate Nonsense. What makes you think that it’s “of marginal importance” to mothers to be called mothers, or to women to be called women? Do you think a couple of anecdotes from academia tell the story? Who are you to decide another persons biological reality is of marginal importance?

We should refuse to use this alienating bureaucratic language. It is a degradation even when it does not refer to bodily processes or reproductive organs. The use of it demonstrates ideological compliance, not that you are a sensitive or caring person. …
Ana Kasparian@AnaKasparian

I'm a woman. Please don't ever refer to me as a person with a uterus, birthing person, or person who menstruates. How do people not realize how degrading this is? You can support the transgender community without doing this shit.

@proteinwisdom This is stupid. “Woke” is most prevalent in wealthy, white people. If you want to be more specific: wealthy, white women. Just reply with the demographics.

@JoelWBerry This is accurate. DM is cosplaying and mocking women. He’s making a gross joke of traditional femininity. It’s disgusting. Imagine someone deciding to be “trans-race” and walking around over-acting the most blatant stereotypes of their “new race”. It would not go well.

Matt is defending the vulnerable. He’s defending women from sick, abusive men who erase real women, force themselves into their locker rooms, and dehumanize them by treating them like a costume that can be worn.

That counselor should be fired. She says “social contagion” is “invalid”, then goes on to describe what might be happening and, look, she DESCRIBES social contagion. She is taking a purely political position at the expense of those kids. Fire her.

@sbkaufman @jordanbpeterson That rebuke would carry more weight if you would do the same to, say, people like Sam Harris repeatedly invoking dead babies.

@SethDillon @ianmiles @elonmusk This is the right nuance. A balanced approach would have had the same consequences for labeling a right-winger a “Nazi” as it would for labeling a trans-woman a “man”.

@FreeBlckThought Of course not. It still pathologizes the very fact of *being white*, which is an immutable ethnicity. It also leans into assertions of a priori parental and societal racism as personality drivers, and the general concept that “white == bad”. It’s offensive and, frankly, bigoted.

"Through my work in critical whiteness studies, I hope to expand our ideas regarding 'whiteness,' how white identity is formed and the consequences of that identity."
