I pronounce it 'Twitter.' Because since he's decided to remove the rule on Twitter against deadnaming trans people, I'm going to deadname his precious website.
Why do i get the feeling he cares more about that than about deadnaming trans people...
It's not deadnaming since Apartheid Andy didn't have the moral authority to rename twitter.
Continuing to correctly call the platform people tweet on twitter is nothing at all like referring to a person with a name that threats a person as though they haven't authority to assert own identity.
Conflating the two is not ideal.
