message from Patricia about the recent situation

[ltsophia]

It’s just horrific how there is just a dedicated community of people on this website who are trying to recreate KiwiFarms. They are harassing and stalking trans girls and anyone who supports us.

It doesn’t matter what justifications they come up with as to why these girls need to be gone from any sort of online spaces and community, because whatever harm they claim these girls are doing is outweighed infinitely by the harm they are doing. They track down dirt on a victim and make sure they can never live it down, they send nonstop harassment to their victims and anyone related to them. I’ve seen them allege that a girl being followed by kink blogs and having her posts be interacted with by them is a sign that she must be secretly a pedophile and rapist, there is no amount of reality that can break them from this confirmation bias.

Who made them judge jury and executioner of our communities? Why do they think they can decide who belongs in our spaces, our friend groups, our lives? They weaponize harassment and call it justice, but all I see is sad people spending their lives on making sure vulnerable people are more vulnerable and quiet.

These people are in no community with me. I don’t care about their excuses and justifications, they don’t believe that people can change or grow, they don’t want to see anyone safer, they want an acceptable target for their anger and hatred.

Fix your hearts or die.

it's so fucking unfair. run a blog for years digging up any dirt you can find on a trans woman. accuse her of everything in the transmisogynist playbook. tell everyone she's harrassing you for defending herself. continue poking and prodding at deeply traumatic events until finally she lashes out and says something you can mark as bannable. complain about the papercut you obtained from strangling someone and finally you can make her disappear in a way that feels fair. i hope it fucking eats you up inside that you get to treat people like this and get away with it. i hope it ruins you that you can just disappear trans women who you don't like.

the extremely infuriating irony of tumblr terminating the blog of a trans woman who has been the victim of a years-long kiwifarms harassment campaign for "engaging in sexual harassment" on the day before trans day of remembrance is not lost on me and I hope it's not lost on anyone else.

Patricia Taxxon's blog got banned today.

For several years, multiple blogs have been constantly sealioning Patricia Taxxon and her community to answer for an endless, unmanageable river of accusations. These blogs lie about the content of her posts. Some of the worst instances of this would interpret her posts as the complete opposite of what she said. They did this to antagonize her until she gave them an excuse to report her account.

To the blogs who orchestrated this, know that you actively prevent criticism. By constantly jumping at shadows, you create a "Boy Who Cried Wolf" style attitude towards anyone who is actually trying to give helpful criticism. The only goal your actions serve to advance, is punishing trans women. Additionally, the strategies you use are the same strategies that get Black people banned as well. Don't think we haven't noticed that you only have one openly black ally.

To Patricia Taxxon, I want you to know that I support you, and that there are people who can see what is happening to you.

If you blindfold yourself and throw a dart at a calendar you'll hit a date when Tumblr has banned a trans woman who had been the subject of an ongoing harassment campaign.

I didn't know that Patty had been banned but I have seen the awful attacks that had been aimed at her for months that echoed other types of isolating harassment that I know she'd been subject to for years.

The people who have been harassing her have been using weaponized social justice language to demonize a young woman who who has spent her whole adult life in public on the internet. She is in a tremendously unenviable position and there were times when she didn't handle that gracefully, but it's ridiculous to expect someone being flayed alive to perform ballet.

At this point it has to be clear to everyone that callouts say much more about the person doing the calling out than the person being called out, right? At this point we know that accusations about a person based on their kinks and sexual roleplay is sexual harassment, not 'community protection' right?

The trans community is full to the brim of traumatized people who are working through their trauma and realizing their fullest selves in complicated ways, and it is also chock fucking full of people who only 'feel safe' when they manage to unperson someone who likes things they think are icky or who was clumsy when navigating new territory.

The last five years have felt like watching a purity spiral that protects a false idol while spitting out the trans women it has broken. I don't know what to say, I don't know how to help, but we have got to stop taking it at face value that complicated individual human beings with layered histories and varied motivations must be Evil because someone showed us a screenshot of them talking about kink in a way that feels weird to the viewer (it probably feels weird because you were not part of that conversation and should not be involved and definitely should not be sharing it as an example of why someone deserves to be isolated from any sense of community to suffer!)

Hello, just wanted to share a few screenshots i was able to find of Patricia Taxxon defending herself, in hopes of preventing them from being buried through her recent banning

If you have any more, please post them. Don't let these people get the last word.

"pedophiles are oppresed!! they get so much undeserved hate!!" as if csa and rape victims don't get every excuse thrown at them about how it wasn't that bad or they secretly wanted it or their abuser was actually such a great guy besides that and they shouldn't have their life ruined because of a a "mistake" 🙄
