they/them
I am a queer, autistic, disabled, anarchist. I have a focus on fighting ableism, and run spaces with that being an intention. One thing I put a lot of focus on is ableist language. I stream, run a youtube channel, and a discord.

Anyone else have to deal with constant harassment from people like this on there?English6·7 months agoI also think I want to make a list of these accounts, I wonder if there are tools to scrape pfps and look for similar ones or any lists of them that already exist
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Politics@beehaw.org•Video on how blocking fascists is better than debating themEnglish4·7 months agoa lot of their harm is built around dependence on them
we can do stuff about many forms of it without direct interaction, and we do not need their permission for it
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Short video on how "apoltiical" doesn't existEnglish4·7 months agonot all murderers are criminals, in fact I would say the worst weren’t
whether or not the murder was legal is of no consequence
this is like me saying “trans people are cool” and you replying with “actually blaire white is a fascist and she is trans”
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Short video on how "apoltiical" doesn't existEnglish4·7 months agonah criminals are cool, the issue with politicians is that they make law
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Neurodivergence@beehaw.org•Video on how autistic people are often mistaken for AI and how that is harmfulEnglish7·7 months agoHR isnt there to protect you lol
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Neurodivergence@beehaw.org•Video on how autistic people are often mistaken for AI and how that is harmfulEnglish7·7 months agoyeah I’ve been in similar situations, but with the anti-ai hatred brewing I’ve seen people starting to want to get even more aggressive about it. It is incredibly scaring

rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Politics@beehaw.org•video on how people won't notice democracy endingEnglish2·8 months agowell i write out the script and related information in a big document, I could probably share that from a burner account for my videos
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Politics@beehaw.org•video on how people won't notice democracy endingEnglish1·8 months ago- yes, they were specifically asked for, and closed captions are also available
- I will try increasing the size for my next video and see how that works
- the point was to summarize it for people with difficulties with short term memory (a lot of the people I work with), and putting it before may add confusion on that end
- I was trying less pauses with this one, but yeah might not be as good.
and for information overload, the point is that it is as condensed and short as possible, i deal with a lot of people who need that level of information to stay engaged. This exists as an alternative to those slow 2+hour essays. Ultimately that will likely always be an issue for a good portion of people
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Politics@beehaw.org•video on how people won't notice democracy endingEnglish1·8 months agowell ultimately it is looking at 2 things at once, do you have any suggestions?
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Politics@beehaw.org•video on how people won't notice democracy endingEnglish2·8 months agoi mean, democracy is a hierarchical idea in the first place so its not like it makes much of a difference to me. I mean in the general sense here though specifically, so I think the tense is fine
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto LGBTQ+@beehaw.org•video on how "biological sex" is a social constructEnglish7·8 months agoit is clear when you look at ecosystems for example, if a single disease can wipe out all adult trees in a forest it kills all new sprouts and it stops being a forest. (Tree sprouts tend to not do well in direct sunlight because they expect the shade of trees above them and all that)
so if you only have one kind of trees you are on a timer
this is the same with how we interact, and why organizing in systems that can coexist with as many other systems as possible is a requirement for survival. This is one of the biggest reasons why I’m an anarchist, because the point of the state is to force everyone to exist within one set of rules and such
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish1·8 months agoI’m autistic, I’ve been called “detached and academic” my whole life, if you are inclusive how about you try including how I like to communicate instead of treating my existence like a problem to be fixed
what makes you think attacking me how I interact makes me want to interact more closely?
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish1·8 months agoi mean i did mention replying to comments though, so idk how they could assume that i was planning on ignoring them?
idk it feels like bad faith assumptions
like people keep saying im not going to use peoples pronouns when i didnt say anything about that?
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish1·8 months agodeeper context involves like, reading the last 10 posts someone made to get an idea of who they are before responding, is that expected here? I am not understanding what you want from me
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish1·8 months agoI never said anything about not seeing people as complex humans? I’m confused
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish1·8 months agoI never said anything about pronouns
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish1·8 months agoI do not read usernames and take messages as they are without looking for additional context. This space is not a chat room and there is no reason to treat it as such. It is a forum.
rosethornRangerTTV@beehaw.orgOPto Chat@beehaw.org•Why I think people should consider using different pronouns in different spacesEnglish2·8 months agoI mean pronouns dedicated to gender, so gender has pronouns dedicated to it, not that it is some universal list. Also, you aren’t “forcing an ideology” on someone, if you describe something in terms of an ideology people must use an understanding of that ideology to process your words, for example. If I write something in binary you have to use a binary decoder to read it, you will get nothing useful if you use something else, so forcing you to decode binary is forcing you to use binary. There is nothing scary about that.
people who are parts of a system can do pronouns either way, so this isn’t much more relevant to them in the first place. Trans people in the closet are included in this.
Some of the same people will see you in different spaces, so it will have a different impact.
shitty person here downplaying bigotry? Blocked
