Social media posts inciting hate and division have “real world consequences” and there is a responsibility to regulate content, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, insisted on Friday, following Meta’s decision to end its fact-checking programme in the United States.

    It’s your responsibility to correct someone if they misgender you. It’s their responsibility to accept the correction and respect your identity after they have been corrected.

      As I would do. You wanna be called a chick when you’re a dude? Cool fine. I can respect that. But the fact is playing extreme dress up doesn’t make you whatever it is you’re saying you are

        Okay, I mean you haven’t really respected my rights to be “called a chick” in this conversation but I’m glad you’re willing to respect my right to be identified with whatever terminology I feel best describes me.

        What I’m saying I am is a woman, a transgender one who was assigned male at birth and transitioned as a young adult. I’m not claiming to be anything else.
