Mullenweg, CEO of tumblr in addition to everything else, is harassing a trans woman for "reasons" (don't know why, not diving deep enough to find out). Is publically connecting multiple of their disconnected sfw and nsfw identities by using internal tumblr data, and harrassing them across all of those identities apparently.
The “reasons” seem important to judge the situation.
He followed her on twitter after banning her on tumblr and receiving massive backlash due to his reasons for banning her.
Source Sorry I don't have better sources atm, I don't have time to look for them
LOL imagine making death threats against the admin and then going “oh poor me, being discriminated by transphobes!”
I might be splitting hairs here, but its always bothered me when death wishes are conflated with death threats. It happens so often that whenever death threats are reported I just think "I bet someone actually wished cancer on them".
Real boy who cried wolf type stuff
