Using gender neutral terms literally cannot be misgendering. Shut the fuck up.

It is when you continue to use the term continually after being told the right one to use.

I see one instance here
Also 'they' is gender neutral

On topic:
Swatting needs to be punished severely for instances like this.

Using them to erase the gender of people or otherwise avoid properly gendering people IS misgendering. It's no different than if you tried they shitty "well I just call everyone dude" line to justify calling trans women that, all the while your posting history proving you don't do that for cis women.

Leading with neutral terms is a good idea, but when told the correct way to refer to someone you fucking adjust

Swatting is so fucked up. Maybe there should be some really basic fact checking before a team of trigger happy soldiers break into someone's house? Seems like a wild idea.

Depending of what you mean by that, Kiwi Farms doesn't get taken down, because it doesn't do anything illegal. Making fun of people, saying mean things about people, recording information they put online themselves, even doxing, etc are not illegal.

Social media is both a blessing and a curse considering it let's unhinged sociopaths connect with other like minded individuals and let's their hate groups rally and stir shit up when they have the time, which is literally most of the time because they live to make other people miserable. Seriously almost everyone seems to be in a fucking gang / cliche these days. What ever happened to doing the 9 to 5, doing right by your family and good friends and trying to be a pillar in your community?

It's really disturbing how easy it is for bad faith actors to ruin everything for some one.
And how very little is ever done to prevent this kind of thing from happening.

Did this happen awhile ago if she has had gofundme's set up?

Why not? People who want her dead know where she lives, seems like its pretty important to relocate asap.

I am glad we have this alt here, to just ask questions about the victim of a months-long harassment campaign that has recently escalated to swatting. These are important questions to ask and not at all whataboutism.

These, presumably, are not important questions.

These people would hate trans people this severely even if they weren't terminally online.

It doesnt sound like they were swatted at all. They specifically said they were arrested for a crime they didnt commit.

I dont think we can call this a swatting until we find out what that crime was.
If you want to be technical it isn't swatting. Swatting implies you do it so it happens during a stream. This apparently didn't. Going by the first tweet.

Glad we have some one to clear up what is and isn't swatting. Really making an invaluable contribution to the discussion of what happened to a leading trans activist who almost died because of some one got a swat team to raid her home.

Even after her brother attempted to warn them of the harassment campaign beign waged against her LOL read below.

Here's another article about the incident: https://www.vice.com/en/article/k7bzaz/twitch-streamer-keffals-arrested-after-transphobic-swating
Streamer Clara Sorrenti, also known as Keffals, was arrested on August 5th after a fraudulent email was sent to every city councilor in London, Ontario saying that she intended to harm her family and members of the London Parliament. The raid resulted in her computers being seized by police, and happened amidst a wave of transphobic harassment against the streamer, which she says was further perpetrated by the police themselves.
Clara is an outspoken trans streamer who has gained tens of thousands of followers on Twitch for aggressively debunking anti-trans talking points, as well as for her ability to ratio notable anti-trans activists on Twitter. A ratio on Twitter is when a reply to a tweet gets more likes than the tweet itself. Most famously, Clara ratioed former childrens book author and current transphobe J.K. Rowling.
In addition to being arrested, Clara said that the police booked her under her deadnamewhich has not been her legal name in more than 10 yearsand that the police referred to her by her deadname when she was arrested. In a YouTube video about the incident, Clara attributed this to the fraudulent emails sent to city councilors, which she said included her deadname in an obvious attempt to make the police humiliate me.

On August 5th, Clara says that the police went to perform a wellness check on her mother Catherine Sorrenti. Catherine says the police asked for her son, which confused her.
They said that they came because they wanted to check on my welfare because they were ... oh God, I can't remember, something about my son and I said, my somy nephew? Catherine said, according to a transcript Clara provided to Motherboard. And I said, you mean my nephew and then they said Clara Sorrenti so then I knew it was you. Then I said, my daughter, oh my daughter.
The police informed her theyd received an email saying that Clara was threatening her mother, as well as members of the London parliament.
I just kept telling them no, no she didn't do it, Catherine said.
Claras brother, Brandon Roberts, said in the same transcript that he had previously gotten in touch with the police to warn them that Claras address had been leaked. He says the police told them that there was nothing they could do.
I just mentioned it was a possibility of happening they said what are they saying on there, and they found the address, and they were like here's her address, have fun guys, Roberts said. And he's like, that's not threatening or anything. He said if they're wishing harm to you, that's not a problem either, it's when they say they're going to, that's when it starts to get into harassment territory. So basically, I can wish bodily harm on someone but I can't say that I'm going to do bodily harm is the message he gave me.
Clara said today that after being interviewed by the police, she was released with no charges.
Last month, Clara was also banned from Twitch for a month for repeated hateful slurs or symbols. However, the slurs in question were screenshots of the abuse Clara received for being transgender. She said on Twitter that her account was mass reported.

What happened to me was one of the most terrifying things I've experienced in my entire life. I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of support, and I want to thank you all for having my back. I will update everyone as more information is available and I have spoken to legal counsel.
I have raised enough money through the gofundme to move, and as soon as I verify who I am will withdraw the money and do so immediately. All additional donations at this point will be towards the legal fund so I can protect my rights and seek justice for what happened to me.
An update from Keffals. May her vengeance be swift and terrible, and her new home safe.

She doesn't deserve all of this because of that, but that is a pretty toxic thing for her to have said. Did she walk it back at some point?

Swatters should be charged with attempted murder unless the victim gets killed. Change my mind.

If they get killed then the swatters should be charged with actual murder.
