Call your representatives. Tell them to vote no on H.R. 22 SAVE Act.
hmmm
One of their last Tweets before the account got suspended:
With an update since getting it back:
So here's what happened on Reddit:
A transmasc posted about how transmascs and trans men are often invisible, how our issues are dismissed, and how resources, especially medical ones, are almost always written with non transmascs in mind. They posted this both to r/Trans and r/lgbt.
A moderator of r/Trans responded by telling them to “stop bitching.” That’s the word they used. That’s the level of respect trans men get. Transandrophobic by the way, don't call trans men bitches.
The comment was deleted, quietly, after backlash. Then the entire post was removed. When asked why, a mod responded that the post was “playing oppression olympics,” and took the time to go through and dismiss each of the original poster’s points, including saying that trans men being sexually assaulted isn’t “unique to transmascs” and therefore not an issue, and claiming that access to testosterone isn’t any more restricted than access to estrogen, which is a straight-up lie, because T is a tightly controlled substance in most places and E is not.
The original poster was banned for three days.
Then a separate mod made a post saying, “nobody asked us our side of the story,” which is wild because people absolutely did, publicly and repeatedly. Users also started reporting that they’d had supportive comments removed or had been banned after disagreeing with the mods, some of those claims are still unconfirmed, but given the general behavior, it wouldn’t be surprising.
Then r/Trans locked down entirely. No new posts. The conversation was forcibly ended.
Some people posted about it on r/FTM, many of those posts were mass-reported, automatically removed by Reddit’s automod, or quietly buried. Meanwhile, r/lgbt also removed the original post, with no explanation.
One of the r/Trans mods eventually posted an “apology,” which was really just a soft-scrubbed PR post full of noncommittal language and distancing. They said they didn’t mean to call a trans man “a bitch,” they just used it synonymously with “complaining,” and they didn’t think about the implications until later even though the first post was about microaggressions just like the mod committed. They did not apologize for anything else, not for wrongfully banning people, not for accusing a transmasc venting like any other user of playing oppression olympics, nothing at all. They said they’re on break and can’t do anything about it. They said, and I quote, “please don’t be mad at the rest of the team.” even though the rest of the team are just as culpable for not stopping their behavior.
They also added that trans men are “a welcome part of the community” and tried to point at moderation history as proof. Because apparently we should be grateful that people occasionally get banned, every so often, for implying trans men aren't oppressed at all, wow, thanks, that is like below the bare minimum, cool.
The current state of things is: r/Trans has over 600,000 members, and trans men and transmascs were silenced, banned, and told to shut up for bringing up their own oppression. And the subreddit is locked down. There’s a mass exodus happening to the new sub, r/trans4every1, but let’s be real, the damage has already been done.
Now let’s talk about what this actually means.
This is not “just more Tumblr discourse.” This isn’t some random blog saying they don’t like transmascs. This isn’t a Twitter reply guy. This isn’t a niche zine or a spicy personal take. This is a massive trans-focused subreddit with over half a million users. It's easily one of the largest public facing trans community online, maybe even the largest, I've certainly never found a bigger one myself. And the moderation team made it crystal clear: they do not want transmascs to feel safe or welcome there.
This is what transandrophobia looks like on a slightly larger internet scale. When it’s in the hands of people who get to decide who gets heard and who gets deleted.
And for anyone who’s still stuck on “well they apologized” listen: trans men are told all the time that we’re being too loud, too angry, too entitled, too manly, too feminine, too confusing, too “binary,” too "Nonbinary", too much. We’re told that we’re “oppression olympics-ing” just for talking about our lives. And now we're getting banned and locked out of the spaces that claim to represent a huge portion of online trans people.
This isn't just online drama. This is a bellwether. And if it isn’t setting off alarms in your head, it should be.
The way transandrophobia manifests in online spaces absolutely bleeds into real life, into medical gatekeeping, into poor data collection, into the erasure of sexual violence against transmascs, into advocacy groups that write us out of the picture, into educational materials that treat us like footnotes, if they include us at all.
And if you’re sitting there thinking, “well it’s not that deep,” you’re part of the problem.
We need to start being more honest about this: Transandrophobia is real, it is widespread, and it is growing. We need to stop giving people the benefit of the doubt when they’ve shown us they don’t want us in the room.
And frankly?
We need to start making TRFs [Trans Radfems & transmasc-exclusionary feminists alike] deeply uncomfortable being open about their beliefs. We need to make them afraid to be TRFs, the way they’re trying to make us afraid to exist.
The same way we don’t coddle fascists. The same way we don’t tolerate TERFs. We need to stop tiptoeing around transandrophobia.
Because this growing wave of transandrophobia is going to kill people. Full stop.
Protect trans men. Protect transmascs. Protect your siblings; all of them!
Edit because I forgot to add it:
Another thing worth noting is that not only was r/trans deleting and banning any users and posts talking about the situation, they were deleting any posts talking about transmasc issues or transmasc positivity full stop.
Even when those posts had nothing to do with the current issue. They were being silenced. They were being actively erased, in a trans space.
internet politics and real-world politics have gotten so separated, and pretty soon all this internet weirdness is gonna come crashing into real life and politicians are gonna start throwing around words like “SJW” and “anime communist” and “dark enlightenment” and it’s just gonna be the most ridiculous fucking thing

This post.
This fucking post.
It is in some ways, the only piece of evidence I have that there was a time Before.
I live in Chicagoland and have family friends who are brown and undocumented. It’s not good here.
I want to specify that the US government ICE agents rapelled from Blackhawk helicopters to take over an apartment building, breaking open apartment doors in the middle of the night to drag barely-clad residents from their homes and detain everyone in UHaul trucks with the children zip-tied to each other. Regardless of citizenship.
There was too much traffic today, and an ICE agent deployed a tear gas canister in traffic in response.
This is not normal.
From the very bottom of my heart: what the ACTUAL FUCK
It’s not even near me yet, but where I live there’s lots of brown folks so they’ll come.
This is surreal. We’re being attacked by the United States.
"ICE Agents Rappel From Black Hawk Helicopters Into Chicago for Major Raid" - MSN, published October 1st, 2025
Most mainstream media is barely covering it.
I genuinely wish I were surprised by that.
The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosi
Spread this far and wide - there's no paywall.
witnessing a surge of trans infighting at a time when our rights are under violent, organized government attack that threatens to set back 40 years of progress:
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Find your members of Congress by typing in your address on Congress.gov.
I hate that like when arguing with christians about how they think that homosexuality is a sin because of the bible its a faux pas to be like ok well that's not real
I do not care about someone's personal creation mythology but when we are talking about like actual legislation that decides equal rights it is like ok you cannot just say source: religious document. why is that even allowed or taken seriously
I would just like to remind you all that the Take It Down Act didn’t disappear; it passed. And it WILL be implemented as soon as 2026 comes around.
”Ferguson and Commissioners Mark Meador and Melissa Holyoak said they plan to vociferously enforce the TAKE IT DOWN Act, a recently signed law that requires tech companies to remove nonconsensual sexual imagery within 48 hours of being alerted.” - Politico

Trump has LITERALLY SAID THAT HE PLANS ON USING THIS TO HIS OWN ADVANTAGE AND CENSOR HIS CRITICS. The language of this bill is TOO BROAD to ONLY target ai deepfakes. THAT IS INTENTIONAL. THEY WANT TO GIVE HIM MORE UNCHECKED POWER.
Where is the backlash that happened right after he signed it into law?? Where did it go? WE NEED THAT ENERGY AGAIN. WE NEED TO ALL URGE ORGS TO SUE AND TAKE THIS BILL TO COURT. IT HAS NO SAFEGUARDS IN ITS TEXT THAT SPECIFY IT TO ONLY AFFECT AI DEEPFAKES. IT WILL BE USED TO CENSOR LGBTQ COMMUNITIES AND OTHER GROUPS. IF YOU THINK YOU ARE SAFE FROM THIS, YOU. AREN’T. THIS WILL AFFECT EVERYONE.
CALL THE ELECTRIC FRONTIER FOUNDATION.
CALL THE ACLU.
TELL FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE.
IN THIS POLITICAL CLIMATE WHERE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE AT STAKE, WHERE SO MANY LIVES ARE BEING THREATENED, THE AFFECTS OF THIS BILL WILL BE DRASTIC. IT WILL ISOLATE THE VULNERABLE, IT WILL KEEP US UNINFORMED, AND IT. WILL. SILENCE. US. OUR PROTESTS, EVERYTHING.
WE ARE HALFWAY THROUGH 2025.
WE ARE HALFWAY THROUGH JULY ALREADY.
WE HAVE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS TO GET THESE POLICIES CHALLENGED AND TAKEN DOWN.
SO HELP US! PLEASE!
HERE IS A BASELINE SCRIPT TO USE WHEN EMAILING ORGS. YOU CAN EDIT IT AS NEEDED TO VOICE YOUR OWN CONCERNS.
“Hello [insert org name here], I'm emailing you to call attention to the Take it Down Act, also known as TIDA.
TIDA is intended as a way to crack down on deepfake content, which often includes generated images of non-consenting individuals. In reality, this bill can and will be used by the Trump Administration as yet another overreach of government power, and to remove any content the President doesn't like from the Internet.
I urge you to please help us by challenging this bill in court as it directly goes against our 1st amendment rights.”
Get loud.
We've opposed the Take It Down Act because it could be easily manipulated to take down lawful content that powerful people simply don't like
What you should and shouldn't do about censorship in 2025:
DO:
✅️ Spread the word on all platforms that you have an account on.
✅️ Sign as many petitions as you can.
✅️ Call, email, and fax your Senators and representatives about KOSA, the Screen Act, the BEARD bill, the HR 9495 bill, and COPPA 2.0.
✅️ Call Visa and MasterCard.
✅️ Cancel YouTube Premium if you have it.
✅️ Find alternatives for YouTube and refuse to use it at all on August 13th and for every day afterward until they remove their age verification policy.
✅️ Save everything that is important to you on USBs.
✅️ Protest.
DON'T:
🚫 Submit any form of ID to any social media platform or website.
🚫 Comply with censorship regulations of any kind.
🚫 Let anyone tell you that this is to "protect the children." If they wanted to protect kids, they would release the Epstein files and arrest everyone in them.
🚫 Give up.
Just to clarify, there's a bill that would STOP credit card companies from controlling who's allowed to spend money on porn or "risque" (read: queer) content. If you don't think big business should be able to tell you what to spend your own damn money on, call your senators and reps to let them know! It's the Fair Access to Banking Act, H.R.987 in the House, S.410 in the Senate.
“They’re trying to convince people they can’t do the things they’ve been doing easily for years – to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies – to write that for you.” We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, “that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won’t know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can’t do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat. People are already doing this. You won’t have to process grief, because you’ll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it’s going to destroy humans, long before there’s a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people.”
Justine Bateman on AI in this article from The Guardian
There are certain moments your life you live in forever, a lot of mine are from 2016.
I can remember every detail of a day in the fall of 2016, standing in my Hillary For America office, a little store front off main street. And two people come in a middle aged husband and wife. They're looking to get a sign. If you've ever worked on a campaign you'll know how amazingly annoying it is to endlessly have people coming in for free stuff and never ever volunteering to help.
So I was sent to try to talk them into signing up to knock doors or make calls to elect the Candidate who's sign they were getting. I talked about something Hillary had said recently, that Trump could appoint up to 4 Justices to the Supreme Court and we'd lose Roe V Wade.
Till the day I die I will remember the husband rolling his eyes and saying "I know thats a good line, but you don't really believe that do you?" I was shocked speechless for a second before saying I did very much believe it. He insisted that the conservatives wouldn't really get rid of abortion. Idk if he believed or not that Trump could appoint so many Justices, but he definitely, and his wife seemed to agree, thought that even a Republican super majority would not be so crass and step on public opinion so much.
any ways the Republican super majority on the Supreme Court just ruled that lower courts can't block illegal orders from taking effect nationwide and can only block them for the parties that actually sue.
