Certain activists need to GET A CLUE and understand the reasons why they have alienated the very people who've been most harmed by the excesses of trans activism. https://t.co/pFEXP4oTSQ

4/ Would be VERY curious to know if there are any detransitioners who think this is a good or effective political strategy. The only ones I've seen talking about it are offended and alienated by displays of trans surgeries. Thoughts?

5/ The above
was not at all a rhetorical question; there may well be detransitioners who are OK (or even on the fence?) with this sort of activism, but haven't seen them speaking up.Show this thread -
6/ This thread was not meant as a denunciation, but more a plea to think about strategy. Is it effective? Is it worth the loss of important supporters (notably detransitioners)? Most importantly will those shock photos help achieve what you are aiming for politically?

I know going into genital surgery, trans women are typically obsessed with viewing the results pictures anywhere they can get them. That said, I think they rarely get shown the pictures of when things go wrong, which is like 20% of the time in SRS.

The serious downsides aren't known by the average person who only hears the glittery version of the stunning & brave journey to being the authentic self.

But I've always been shocked by the martyr attitude of "well, my surgery didn't work out that great, but I don't want to say anything bad that might stop other people from pursuing theirs."
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I know detransitioners who DO NOT find this offensive. The WANT people to be exposed to these realities. The cartoons and school books sell this to kids, I bet the kids would be less in to it if they had any idea what trransitioning actually involves.

Ofc, but could it be done w/ consent of those detransitioners, using their own words (and pictures, but with some kind of warning as they can cause trauma to some). Just using them to bludgeon home a point to an org that'll only twist it to tar our whole movement is dumb.
