First, you went after Macris before he got involved with Milo; when he was at Defy Media. And second, "false accusations" was not what you accused him of. You went after him for having hired someone who had different views on transgender people from you.

Macris supported a person who made false accusations about trans people and many other people.

And the fact that later Macris went on to support Milo is just another nail.

What "false accusations" did Brandon Morse make? I trust that by "false accusations" you mean he specifically claimed that some trans person did something which they did not do, correct? Not that he said "transgenderism is a mental illness" or something broad and general like that?

Here's an absolutely true statement;

I believe Zak S to be a hypocritical lying sack of shit with nothing of value to say. I believe that the best way to deal with him is to place him on ignore so he can scream into the empty void and fade into irrelevance while we go on about our lives.

I also believe that if everyone did this the world would be a better place.

RPGPundit

Because in fact, Zak, in your own blog post where you say you're boycotting the Escapist, the only thing of Brandon Morse's that you cite as reason for betraying Alex Macris is this:



You go on to say "Without comparing anybody's struggle to anybody else's, you don't need a degree in social science to figure out that since one of the people in our group is a Jew, six are people of color, two were born handicapped and like someteen are bisexual women and one is trans it would be shooting ourselves in the foot if we were, hypothetically, to make money for a company that would then give that money to an actively anti-semitic, racist, ableist, sexist, homophobic or transphobic person.
So the D&D With Porn Stars crew working with the Escapist under those conditions would be as hypocritical and self-defeating as supporting Think of the children!-anti-sex conservatives like Fred Hicks or Fox News. Here: we let you film us playing D&D, you make money, then take the money, buy a bullet, and shoot us each in the foot with it.
"

That's your argument. Not provably false slander against anyone. You just don't like his politics, and think Morse, and then Macris should be censored for their politics.

Morse made lots of false statements.

I cited Morse's anti-trans stance as my reason for leaving the Escapist and dissociating with Alex Macris, its head, and didn't specifically mention the word "misinformation" because, like anti-semitism its almost impossible to be anti-trans without believing and spreading misinformation. Believing false things is how you get to be a bigot.

For example Morse falsely claimed trans people are not under threat (provably false) and the trans rights movement is rooted in narcissism (false).

He therefore made a false accusation against basically all trans activists at once.

Thats just the tip of the iceberg of false claims Morse has made.

I still don't see ANY accusations (false or otherwise) made by Morse.

What I do see is a POS leftard moving the goal post from accusations to claims, while all accusations are claims not all claims are accusations.

Whoever claims that trans-people ARE under threat in the west is making a claim, well here's some skepticism for you: Prove your claim.

As for the movement being rooted in narcissism well that's an opinion, you're free to disagree, or, if you are so retarded as to think this IS a false accusation (libel or slander) then please, take him to a court of law.

But you are a POS leftard and you KNOW your charges don't hold water, so you instead try to destroy him by underhanded means, and to instill terror in others you try to destroy anyone who dares help or even associate with him.

Which is the essence of the leftard terrorism we've been living under for over a decade, "either agree or keep quiet or else we'll destroy you". Well how bout no, FUCK YOU.

Back to ignoring the leftard POS turd, take it from here Pundit.

Here is the accusation:

Morse falsely claimed trans people are not under threat (provably false) and the trans rights movement is rooted in narcissism (false).

1. All people are under threat, since harmful things can happen to anyone, so the first claim is categorically false.

2. Narcissism is a clinical condition, claiming someone suffers from it is an accusation. It has a scientific definition. Burden of proof is on the accuser (Brandon Morse). Morse has cited no study indicating trans rights activists' goals originate in that clinical condition.

So you're happy to go on record and say that White people, CIS men, heterosexuals, and Christians are under threat? And anyone saying otherwise, you'd tell them they're spreading misinformation?

Holy shit, that's the most pedantic thing I've ever seen you say. By that logic literally everyone is "under threat", and it gives no evidence that transgender people as a group or transgender individuals are under any more threat of any kind than anyone else in the world.

While I do believe trans people are disproportionately under threat based on what I know, I don't have to prove that in order for my claim against Morse to be true.

My job was to demonstrate that Brandon Mose spread misinformation.

Fuck me, I KNEW he was a leftard but I didn't think he was a literal retard.

That's NOT an accusation made by Morse against anyone, not even after the dishonest leftard twisting of words.

But I truly hope HE does take this to a court of law, it would be hilarious. What's more, since the POS leftard loooooves to take people to court for defamation/libel/slander someone should tell Morse about the ACTUAL false accusations the POS is making here in public. That would be poetic justice.
