I Have Been Targeted By Transphobic Hate Raids (& What it Cost Me)

This almost broke me. I'm so sorry this happened to you. People like you make the world a bit better, step by step. There are reasons I don't have a public online profile, I just don't have any spoons for activism. But I can only afford to step back like this because there are people like you doing the work. So thank you. You're beautiful.

So sorry you're having to deal with this crap! I'm personally not a fan of lifestreams, so wasn't aware of hate raids, but I appreciate you speaking up about this despicable practice. I so admire your talent and creativity and hate that you have to expend any of your time and energy dealing with this type of hateful bullshit. The fact that such a tiny minority can have such an outsize effect on our lives seems to be a phenomenon that we're seeing in many aspects of life today, unfortunately. I wish I knew the solution.

Thank you for speaking up. I feel helpless and I'm not directly effected. I just wish I could think of anything useful to do.

<3 <3 <3 I expected it, but it's sad that it still came

Jessie Earl

Yeah, I tried... ufnrotuantly, I don't think much can be done...

Jessie Earl

I'm sorry I haven't been around much recently (a lot of rough personal stuff happening but we're all okay). If I can help you in any way, take some work off your hands, whatever you need, I would be very happy to do that.

I can't stress enough how much this pisses me off. I wish I could do more than offer my distant support to you. You're tough, Jessie. I just wish you didn't have to be so tough all the time, just because some pitiable little creatures are too weak and scared to even accept that there are trans people in the world.

So insightful and well put. Thank you!

Oof, it's miserable and unfair that you and others have to deal with these disgusting hate raids and the myriad repercussions. Thank you for being brave and passionate and standing up for yourself and others and for not being cowed into submission despite having irreproachable self-preservation-related reasons to do so. I am in awe and admiration of your principled stances and championing of the marginalised in the face of bigotry, malice and corporate apathy. Brava!

So sorry you’ve had to deal with this bullshit! Thank you for your hard work and resilience.

I left Reddit long ago, as their tools and follow-through on squashing that stuff wasn't useful.

Sorry these motherfuckers treat you like this. You're a good person doing good work... so of course there will be opposition. Still sorry it came your way.

Of course, I imagine they coordinate the doxing via message rather than ON the sub. Still.

Vince Whitacre

It's worth reporting the sub, anyway. Probably won't do anything unless a lot of people report and make it annoying for Reddit. But even though Reddit doesn't have many rules, coordinated doxing isn't allowed.
