Don’t you love when you say something simply to start some stuff and people walk into it? Especially when they really start losing their minds? And it’s even better when you’re trying to make a point, and a rich guy who the news will cover
Elon Musk declares ‘cisgender’ a slur on Twitter. What about ‘fragile man with big ego’?
In the latest episode of “Wealthy White Dudes Get Their Tender Feelings Hurt By An Adjective” self-proclaimed free-speech absolutist Elon Musk has decided the word “cisgender” is a slur.
The owner of one of the largest social media megaphones on the planet issued the following edict via tweet this week: “The words ‘cis’ or ‘cisgender’ are considered slurs on this platform.”
This came as news to most people, as the word “cisgender,” according to Merriam-Webster, simply means: “of, relating to, or being a person whose gender identity corresponds with the sex the person had or was identified as having at birth.”
That’s doesn’t sound particularly slur-ish, but apparently if you’re rich and childish enough, you get to call the shots, so who am I to argue?
That you’re arguing is pretty much Elon’s intention, to get you all sorts of butthurt. He’s a masterful troll.
Well, actually, I’ll tell you who I am. I’m a straight, white, cisgender man (I don’t consider any of those words slurs) who thinks Twitter advertisers and Tesla stock owners might want to check in on the increasingly weird man-boy helming both companies, the one crying “Free Speech!” while threatening to suspend people who use a neutral, broadly accepted and necessary word.
Cisgender is a made up word used as a slur all the time by wacko people who think there are more than two genders. And Musk exposed how intolerant you people are, because the same people he drove nutbar with his tweet will constantly attempt to get people banned on Twitter and social media for daring to not use the proper pronouns and such, and even punished in real life.
Musk’s latest attempt to stomp his feet and whine is a perfect example of someone who has never been marginalized creating a phony sense of marginalization so he can feel free to continue marginalizing others.
You’ve responded exactly as Musk intended, going all SJW and losing you mind. And the opinion piece continues to whine and whine and whine.
Activists make up words all the time to exclude outsiders from the conversation and control the narrative. Good for Musk for pushing back.
Cis- and trans- are designations in stereochemisty.

What has stereochemistry to do with human gender nomenclature?
As I said. Activists making up words that they control. They could have just as easily used more common words like “normal” and “queer”, like we all have been doing for a hundred years, but activists need to control the language so they can be perpetually offended when other people don’t conform to the latest definitions. They learned this from the Negro-Colored-African American language dance.
In Latin, “cis” means “on this side,” while “trans” means “on the other side.”
In chemistry cis refers to two substituents on the “same” side of the molecule, trans refers two substituents on “opposite” sides.
In gene expression cis effects are caused by genetic variants located on the same DNA molecule as the target gene, trans effects are due to genetic variants that affect diffusible elements.
Cis gender refers to matching physical characteristics and self-identified sex. Trans gender refers to a mismatch between physical characteristisd and self-identified sex.
In “Woke” language, “cis” means “the sex you were born with”, i.e. normal.
If you feel the need to highlight the fact…YOU’RE the one with issues.
Teach loses mind over USA today losing its mind
Mr Pott meet Mister Kettle
Label me anything you like but I am not cis anything. I am a normal man, a human male. The way I know all that other stuff is abnormal? No one has to spend time, effort, and money or create propaganda or flags or become a caricature or paint the street attempting to normalize anything that is already normal. So, have fun all you abnormals, just leave me out of it, thanks.
[…] Pirates Cove: Then, USA Today threw a Cis Fit! […]
‘Cis’ and ‘cisgender’ are used to promote a false equivalence between ‘cis’ and ‘trans’ or ‘cisgender’ and transgender.’ But ‘cisgender’ and ‘transgender’ are not equivalent; one is normal, and the other abnormal, one is reality and the other delusion.
Who besides the whackos gives a flying fornication?
If people start talking like that around me, I just give them the you are a retard look and walk away.
That free speech stuff really sucks for the libs, doesn’t it?
Frankly, anyone who uses the word “gender” to refer to anything other than grammar is off the beam. I’ve always figured someone who used “gender” when they meant “sex” was trying to give their argument more weight by sounding scientific, or were too up tight to actually say “sex”.
BB’s official application to see if you’d get approved for gender surgery:
1)Do you exist? Yes, no, maybe
2) Do you have money?
Congratulations, you’re approved !
It’s entertaining seeing nuCons whining about other’s use of words! This has been the power of conservatives for two decades!
Thanks to Newton Gittingrich and Frank Luntz! Frank says use: short words, short sentences, known words but new meanings!, repeat-repeat-repeat!, repeat again!, sound and texture (Axis of Evil!), invoke visuals…
