To be more clear, if you’re still using Meta products after this, I reserve the right as a queer person to call you a asshole.

New: Meta has deleted trans and nonbinary Messenger themes, as well as the blog posts announcing them. Happens the same week that it has changed its rules to allow users to say LGBTQ+ people are "mentally ill" www.404media.co/meta-deletes...

Yes, I know it’s hard to cold-turkey Meta products immediately, I’ve heard every rationale, but I would sure like to see some goddamn movement away from giving that demonic man and his genocidal website the attention it needs to survive.

Another way to put this is “if you call yourself an ally to LGTBQ people but can’t be arsed to distance yourself from Meta, you’re a pretty pathetic-ass ally.”

One more way to phrase this: far harder choices than “leaving Meta” are likely to come over the next four years if you claim to be a true ally of the people that Trump will persecute. If you can’t even pull this off, I do question your commitment to the cause in the dark days to come.
