She just didn’t post at all for 5 months and almost 2 years before that when I issued the thread ban.

Same.

**W\_E** seems to think she was baited. All I saw was people responding to her clearly breaking her topic ban, and not in any Pit-style way. I admire their restraint.

Me, she’s the only unbanned poster I have on ignore, and have even before she flounced, when she thought suggesting I had to be a wife-beater was a great debating tactic. I unhid a couple of her posts now, but I don’t see anything that’s changed.

Man, talk about a one-note poster.

Yeah, that’s pretty bad. If I saw Chase, I would have just used he/him by default anyway (for better or worse\_. You’d really have to know his background to mis-gender him. I hadn’t even heard of him before that thread.

To be clear, she was in the process of breaking her topic ban on trans issues: she was criticizing a trans activist for talking about JK Rowling. In the course of breaking her topic ban, she broke the rule that resulted in her topic ban. It’s hard to get more rulebreaky than that.

Breaking a rule in the process of breaking that rule?

Totally agree. I could imagine a situation where someone goes by they/them or is enby or difficult to tell and is accidentally misgendered. My point there was, it would be tough to do that with Chase.

Ever since I taught her to optimize for clay, I’ve never beaten her (at Catan) again…

Yeah, I really don’t get how being aware of the problem with JK Rowling re ‘the woke’ is in any way baiting the person that used JK Rowling as her prime example of the problem with ‘the woke’.  
She baited the thread.

Yes. Former poster monstro’s twin sister. The name change may be why people aren’t remembering her posts pre-the transphobia debates.

Thanks. I ask because a search for “you\_with\_the\_face” turns up the old name as a poster. I really don’t recall having much internaction that that particular poster.

I remember her from before - she was a misandrist even then.

She’s not a troll. She’s just a small-minded, very angry person.

I kind of got that impression when she basically was telling me what I really meant quite some time ago. Interesting viewpoint.

p.s. I thought that when a name change went through, all the posts made by that poster were changed to the new name. Her posts show up under two nomes d’Internet.

That’s if she had a name change. Some people created a new account when the board switched to Discourse (because they couldn’t sign in to the old account) and as long as they aren’t pretending to be someone new or logging in with the old account, mods seem to be okay with it.

This.

I think there’s some form of intersectionality and belief in a zero-sum situation going on. Reading between the lines and discarding the trans phobia, ISTM that the source of her anger is the belief that the ‘wokerati’ have left Blacks, women and especially black women behind in their search for a new cause _du jour_.  
I wonder if she really thinks that [Laverne Cox](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laverne_Cox) should use a men’s room?
