ive only seen bits and pieces of what happened to predesterone, i know they got deleted (at least twice) and the ceo is making defamatory statements about them, but im genuinely confused as to where I could find this all going down. if u dont wanna gather links or whatever i get it its just that everything popped up on my dash suddenly and i want to know whats happening but i dont know how to find out

theres obviously a lot of people posting rn but ill try to get some links together to sum it up as best i can find- keep in mind i never followed her myself and only distantly knew of her so there are people closer to the situation that probably have more stuff they can tell you though, and searching her url(s) has a lot of info

avery has i think two blogs deleted yeah, unsure about any older ones but predstrogen and avewy/predesterone were both deleted very recently

predstrogen (the first blog) was allegedly deleted for "sexually explicit material" despite any posts that may have been labelled as such being marked with a community label and her blog recently being manually approved as NOT containing adult content. she also talks in this post, as well as here, about how she has had a support ticket open for several months for harassment she was receiving that has not been dealt with

this is an example of the threats and harassment she has been receiving. ive seen a few different people get this ask copy pasted

the CEO of tumblr made a post wherin he publicly aired information regarding her deletion and threatened legal action against her , showing examples of the alleged death threats where no actual threats were made and telling people in the replies to just leave if they were unhappy with the moderation of the site

avery made a post about this and her new blog was again deleted within five minutes of her making it

multiple people who have made posts about the situation have said matt has DMed them and confronted them

this is word im hearing secondhand, so if i get any details wrong please correct me, but posts of hers such as her transition timeline are apparently ones that were flagged. i cant find any screenshots but many of her posts, including one that was a silly edit of a snow leapord wearing shoes, have been completely wiped from the site. if anyone has a screenshot or link to both the original post and it being deleted i can add it to this

again there are a lot of posts going around but these are i think what you really need to know whats going on...

#answered asks #predstrogen #predesterone #im fixing typos in this post as i go along btw very sorry. i was a bit scatterbrained when i was making it and trying to put it together #if u see these tags id appreciate u checking/rbing from the source so it is the most up to date

I saw a post of someone, as far as I could tell they were transgender, getting mad how people are letting the current tumblr fiasco (see any post tagging predesterone, avewy, or predestrogen. TL;DR trans girl got banned off the site for making a 'threat' to Tumblrs CEO while suffering a months long harassment, bigotry, and stalking campaigne without Tumblr lifting a finger to help. Tumblr responded with a ban citing reasons already disproven by their own process.) distract everyone from the current situation in Gaza, which is a coming mass assault. And I do get the frustration. But lets put both in perspective beginning with the 10 stages of genocide from

and

The Stages are as follows taken directly from the sources above:

"Classification – The differences between people are not respected. There’s a division of ‘us’ and ‘them’ which can be carried out using stereotypes, or excluding people who are perceived to be different.

Symbolisation – This is a visual manifestation of hatred. Jews in Nazi Europe were forced to wear yellow stars to show that they were ‘different’.

Discrimination – The dominant group denies civil rights or even citizenship to identified groups. The 1935 Nuremberg Laws stripped Jews of their German citizenship, made it illegal for them to do many jobs or to marry German non-Jews.

Dehumanisation – Those perceived as ‘different’ are treated with no form of human rights or personal dignity. During the Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, Tutsis were referred to as ‘cockroaches’; the Nazis referred to Jews as ‘vermin’.

Organisation – Genocides are always planned. Regimes of hatred often train those who go on to carry out the destruction of a people.

Polarisation – Propaganda begins to be spread by hate groups. The Nazis used the newspaper Der Stürmer to spread and incite messages of hate about Jewish people.

Preparation – Perpetrators plan the genocide. They often use euphemisms such as the Nazis’ phrase ‘The Final Solution’ to cloak their intentions. They create fear of the victim group, building up armies and weapons.

Persecution – Victims are identified because of their ethnicity or religion and death lists are drawn up. People are sometimes segregated into ghettos, deported or starved and property is often expropriated. Genocidal massacres begin.

Extermination – The hate group murders their identified victims in a deliberate and systematic campaign of violence. Millions of lives have been destroyed or changed beyond recognition through genocide.

Denial – The perpetrators or later generations deny the existence of any crime."

Now, these ten stages don't need to be done in order, and all ten aren't required to classify a genocide. If you have all 10 present, you failed to stop it and it's either happening or over. Just ONE stage present is enough to claim it's genocide. Not all genocides are bloody, they can be quiet, slow, and unnoticeable to those not the targets of it.

In Palestine, you have all 10. It's happening. No one listened, no one cared, and now innocent blood is spilled that was 100% preventable. And we, the world, get to watch that failing in action. We're seeing a bloody genocide. A violent one.

With transgender people in many places in the world, the stages present are: Classification, Symbolization, Discrimination, Dehumanization, Organization, Polarization, and Preparation. Seven, out of ten. 7/10. 70% of the way there to "too late".

So why is the predesterone/predstogen/Avewy/Rita situation important? The US, where Tumblr makes it's office. Avewy is transgender. The US is solidifying the Discrimination stage, and depending on who's elected next, even sanctuary states could feel the full pressure of the federal government. Please note, it's bad enough in the states that certain ones are offering sanctuary from others. Avewy isn't a US citizen, yet despite reporting discrimination, has so far had her reports denied and been removed from the site. So have many other enbies, trans men, and trans women.

Now Tumblr isn't a government institution, however, genocide is as much a government act as it is a social one. And private institutions, companies, corporations, and people make it happen. So getting mad saying something to the effect of "Palestinians are dying and this Avewy issue is distracting from meaningful actions being taken to prevent this nex upcoming mass assault" is aiding in allowing the same thing to happen to another minority by paving the path up to the genocide stage of Denial. How do you think the Palestinian genocide came to be? People kept saying their issues weren't important enough, and denied that there was a problem. The ongoing genocide NEEDS TO BE STOPPED but not at the cost of allowing another genocide to continue to take place.

And if you haven't figured it out, this is why anti-discrimination laws exist. Any sign of inequality in a society, whether thats based on race, creed, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, sex, disability, etc. is the starting sign of a possible genocide. This is why equality is so important. This is why Pride exists, this is why the racial equality movement is important, this is why people get on stage in protest and show up to rallies. Failure to uphold equality leads to erasure, and often to blood spilled. If you don't like that 70% of transgender people of all ages are at risk of suicide when not supported, or the higher rate of systemic violence towards people of colour and other minorities, then learn to recognize discrimination and speak up. Because failure to do so puts lives on the line, and we're all in this world together.

Free Palestine, Trans Rights Are Human Rights, Black Lives Matter, Stop the Genocide. All these statements can, should, and need to coexist on the same world stage. When ones in crisis, show up, because it only cascades and gets worse.

None of us are free unless all of us are.

it is INCREDIBLE to me that this mother fucker thinks we will buy this shit, ESPECIALLY after on the next fuckin morning he was still harassing predesterone on twitter. Not only that but this man is desperately grasping at straws lying his ass off trying to go "IM NOT THE BAD GUY"

Dude got his feelings hurt a little and has since gone on a full fuckin meltdown, and his actions have stated tumblr is not a safe place for trans women

@ everyone saying that predesterone shouldn't have done the death threat ("death threat") post and that she's had it coming :

She was harassed, mass reported, accused of pedophilia and called a rapist, misgendered repeatedly, mass reported by terfs, and had most (if not all) of her own reports ignored by staff.

even if matt's misgendering was truly an accident. even if the death threat was truly too far and hurtful. even if she had nsfw shit on ANY of her blogs. she is still the victim here. she was harassed off the platform, by a man who can't fucking bear to see himself as anything but perfect and tolerant and right, and now this asshole is harassing her and apparently doxxing her on Twitter/X. I don't fucking care what's your opinion on silly "death threats". I don't particularly like them either as it turns out! I think telling soemone to die for any reason sucks! I'm still on her fucking side! because she was fucking exhausted, frustrated, and she was right to be, and now photomatt is trying to make himself be the victim.

If you support photomatt, you're on the same side as the terfs who harassed predesterone and called her a rapist and a pedophile. if you support photomatt, you're on the side of transphobia and transmysogyny. if you support photomatt, you're on the side of a man who's doxxing a trans woman who has left the goddamn site and is doing nothing wrong against him or his shitty website anymore. fuck you.

So at what point do transfems take the hint, abandon this shitshow, and make our own website, forum, discord server, whatever the fuck will let us just exist without banning us so hard that our transition photos get nuked, that random shitheads make up sex crimes to accuse us of, and so much more?

Because this is beyond too much. My discord is butchofsalmacia, add me if you're transfem, and drop your non-tumblr contact info in the notes, too. Let's network and get the fuck out of this.

[not-a-bad-dragon]

The silver lining of this absolutely fucked Predesterone situation is how many trans people are posting photos of their transition in protest.

You all look so happy and that makes me so happy for you

Remember that you being happy, living your best life is the biggest insult you can possibly offer these cunts

I hope that now Predesterone is off this transphobia riddled shithole of a site she also enjoys being happy and living her best life in peace

hey, saw you were looking for possible effective templates for reporting the bs from last night, so this is what I ended up sending in, in case it's at all helpful. I personally think it's terrible for more reasons than listed here, but I was trying to keep it to things that were directly actionable and most likely a violation of their previous agreement (I also included relevant screenshots)

---

I imagine you may be getting more than a few of these in the near future, but despite the previous decision made by your office regarding gender identity discrimination in moderation on Tumblr their CEO has spent a large portion of his night actively ranting about a trans woman that was banned, which seems immediately discriminatory considering this is not normal process for banned accounts on Tumblr (which he even acknowledged, saying company policy in these matters is normally to stay quiet). Furthermore I am concerned about his admission that as of last year, Tumblr did indeed have a transphobic moderator contracted who was also "selling moderation". Despite his claim of having spoken about this before, I had never heard or seen this anywhere on the site (nor had anyone else). Additionally, Matt gave no exact information on the date, but it seems to me that there is every chance this happened after the 180 days given to Tumblr for compliance, and I'm certainly confused as to how it happened if they had actually taken the measures in training and oversight that was asked of them. Beyond that, at least one former employee has noted that trans members of staff may be unfairly targeted for firing, and do not feel safe voicing concerns about transphobia and other possible discriminatory practices. Given that the CEOs behavior this evening involved banning other accounts critical of his decision and going so far as to private message individual users on the platform, I at minimum do not feel comfortable raising any discriminatory issue with Tumblr or Automattic staff given the possible repercussions, and his recent public statements regarding race and gender only suggest this issue will continue to worsen without intervention.

I thank you for your time in reading and hope that someone, possibly, can protect marginalized Tumblr users, because the one clear statement their CEO has made tonight is that he has no plans to, and I would argue he's actually made it less so.

Thank you! This is a great resource for anyone who was feeling like they wanted to contribute a complaint but was unsure what template might work!

My life is on Tumblr. Not all of it, but enough. Why? Because I finally broke out of the illusion I made for myself growing up. I felt like a monster because thats how I was told to feel for feeling what I felt, and so I lied to myself until I believed I didn't feel the things I did. It was a self-made, bunker thick, mysoginistic and misandristic shell of toxicity that made me miserable for the purposes of others convenience in upholding a fantasy world of simplicity. Upon rediscovering truth and having to face all I'd lost in making unappreciated sacrifices, I started to learn how to reclaim and rebuild myself. I want to show people it's okay to be yourself. That being transgender doesn't make you inherently evil. That I, at the end of today, am human, a person, like any of you.

I've shared my thoughts, my frustrations, some of my joys, my hardships. I've made statement pieces, analysis, and even science posts. I've, on occasion, written papers on here with citations/links to my sources. I've put a sizeable amount of time and energy into letting everyone on this site into my life in some small way to combat the idolization and demonization political actors on the local, provinicial/state/territorial, national, and global stage are doing to transgender people. Because the term "transgender" is not synonymous, a thesaurical equivalent, or a replacement for the words "predator", "pedophile", "rapist", "adulterer", "monster", "assaulter", "victim", or "survivor" to name a few. It means "to identify as any gender other than the one assigned at birth". Thats it. Someone could literally decide "I'm just not the gender the doctor said I was" or "I'm not just what the doctor said I was" or " I'm just me" and that's enough. Those are people you know, love, talked to, interact with, laughed with, but maybe also argued with, had a heated discussion with, fought with, or got mad at in traffic for not using a turn signal to change lanes (we've all done it by mistake). Transgender people are just people. Capable of making mistakes, helping others, needing help, and fucking up like everyone else. We all make bad calls, and stupid decisions. We learn, we correct, we hold eachother accountable.

Logging in today to see a long-standing transgender persons blog getting nuked for the either the stupidest idle threat ever made (or so thats the official reason by the Tumblr CEO) or for simply being transgender (as other and numerous members of the public claim) has made me personally a bit wary. The way I see it, it's both. An idle threat was made to a Tumblr executive and because of the prejudice thats become common place world wide, Tumblrs CEO felt vindicated in going to the excessive lengths of full account deactivation on a transgender persons blog. It's absolutely expected to have a zero-tolerance policy on issuing threats, especially to staff. It's not okay in an online forum of supposed neutrality to utterly silence a person completely without fair warning of a Terms of Service failure and a chance to remove, redact, or re-edit a response. We ALL get heated, even myself, and do stupid things in a reactionary moment of passion. What the issue here is, is the disproportionate response. Given I and numerous other transgender people have recieved threats, those on our very lives in fact, which have gone completely ignored, why is there suddenly a zero-tolerance immediate ban policy on a threat that was, in comparison, the kind of insult you'd expect from a grumpy five-year-old?

I see why this is blowing up, because it's a clear display of power privilege. And rather than going through the established review path, as far as anyone can tell, this was a direct response. This sends, whether intentional or not, a clear message: if you're transgender, you're on thin ice here. And it's not just transgender people and queer and cisgender allies who are getting the message. The transphobes, the so called 'gender critical' crowd, the terfs, are seeing it too. That is why I'm calling for Predesterone's account, all associate blogs, be reinstantiated.

The constant misgendering, libel, misinformation, verbal violence, abuse, and conjecture transgender people of all identities face on this site without any reprocussion to those responsible has, for a long while, helped set a clear standard that users of this platform are afforded the privilege of a degree of disrespect towards marginalized groups and minorities. Ableists attack the disabled and neurodivergent, Nazi's attack Jews, Transphobes attack Transgender people, homophobes attack the gays, lesbians, and bisexuals, and racists attack people of colour with -very- little the victims of such hate can do to make it stop. The bigots know this. And this ... this is going to make it worse. Bigots are going to try and instigate harsh responses from minority groups with the intent of forcing queer people and other minority groups off Tumblr. It has already begun in the reblogs of several posts like this one directed at transgender people. Predestrogen is already getting misgendered and disrespected outside the scope of the issue. Conjecture is already being made enmasse.

I'm on Tumblr because Reddit and Twitter were too unsafe. I'm not on any other blogging sites because Tumblr has, for the moment, a supportive queer community. That can change, given this whole situation has been done in such a way that it's being interpreted on all sides as an attack on transgender people.

Tumblr has no obligation to listen to me or others, but Tumblr has always struggled to get by, and I have to ask: is one persons dumb 'threat' really the spark you want to make to get people to leave. Is becoming a truly unprofitable cesspit and hate-haven like Twitter what's desired? Because this is the exact kind of rallying cry to make if you do.

I'm adding my voice to this. Bring back predesterone, this response is out of proportion. No, the CEO does not deserve to be threatened to have hammers thrown at his car until it explodes, or whatever. The point has been made: DO NOT THREATEN TUMBLR STAFF. But neither does a long-standing account deserve to be wiped off the face of Tumblr permanently for a blog post that is so benign compared to what the average transgender site user has to deal with on a regular basis with no recourse. Someone threatened to actually shoot me, kill me, if I was walking down the sidewalk and they saw me, and that post is still up and so is the account despite being reported. It's been 2-3 months or more. If I'm expected to stomach that, you can stomach someone saying they'll throw hammers at your car from a person who in all likelyhood is paying so much into transition she can't afford to buy one tiny kids-sized hammer. The person who threatened me actually openly admits to already owning guns.

look i don't want to jump out and declare that tumblr staff is made up of terfs and transphobes-- but i'm going to anyway! because the amount of harassment very visible trans women on this platform face and get little to no support for coupled with the sudden disappearing of trans women's blogs with vague ToS reasoning as to why definitely makes me raise my guard. the ceo coming down from his high tower to pay specific attention means he's attached his name to this-- this is what he chooses to address on this site as an issue-- not the people who deny and laugh at a genocide, not the rampant radical feminist community who decide to reduce people to how they can use their bodies to serve capitalism. This site, the staff and the moderators have chosen to be complacent in harassment and abuse, and then attack users for non-reasons.

in short, trans women, i love you all! you're all beautiful, fantastic, and talented people who deserve the world! i hope you have an excellent day! i hope you find something you've been looking for for a long time! i hope the messages of support find you amidst everything going on on this fucked up site and make your day brighter <3

the whole predesterone thing is fucking. awful. I literally went to block the shitty terf that mass reported her like 2 days ago. I'm sure she is still on the platform despite all the shitty things she said, meanwhile predesterone has had 2 of her blogs deleted. this is a fucking joke of a website.
