Turns out it takes money or a big corporation to stick to your work when you’re essentially a public figure representing a widely used platform. Can’t make an anonymous alt for politics and step down from any positions of power without those.

    It 100% was not out of context or cropped.

    The framing of the YPTB post, as also understood by Diva and by ZombiFrancis, is that Rimu brought up pronouns to show he’s not a transphobe just out of the blue in response to a suggestion related to ableism, then immediately kicked Mia. They say nothing about Mia’s prior post accusing Rimu of “shadowbanning” because “pro-trans” and “left leaning anarchist” with zero evidence, making the framing very manipulative. I also see no evidence of her being kicked immediately after that message. I’m not familiar with that mobile app, but the “kicked” notification appears to be sticky even if you scroll up, so in theory you could be looking at an exchange from a week prior but still seeing the notifications at the bottom. Your screenshot not showing the “kicked” event right below Mia’s message seems to confirm this.

    The cropping is very obvious as well. The bottom corners aren’t round like in the rest of the messages, there’s an “arrow down” button indicating it’s not the end of the log, and there are parts of letters inside her message that are visible, highlighted by my red arrow here:

    Edit: Corrected a URL.

    Edit 2: Also, it’s clearly an unmarked composite image made up of at least two parts stitched together. Here on the right you can see a cropped part of the black arrow button, while the top of the URL is also cropped, making the h letter look like an n, etc. .
