Hello, I'm Myrtle. In my off-time from work, I research the far-right and try to connect the dots between them. If you care about that topic, or want the occasional post about pickleball or Star Wars, I'm your girl. (Don't call me girl. It's patronizing.)

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home.

Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

This is an excellent piece 👇 its discussion of the “tyranny of the quantifiable” reminded me of the recent article about the tech guys whose miserable vision is for dating to be determined entirely by algorithm

Just updated my profile of Graham Linehan's second-most obsequious hanger-on, "Arty Morty" aka Robbie James Luster. In 2024, Luster fought with the Toronto Community Housing Corporation over the public housing authority's upgrades to Luster's apartment. www.transgendermap.com/issues/topic...

While I'm doing Graham Linehan orbiters, here's "GNC Centric" aka "Benji" aka Eva Penner, a Canadian ex-transgender activist. Penner was on the first ~10 episodes of Linehan's podcast 'The Mess We're In' and is deeply involved in online ex-trans activism. www.transgendermap.com/people/eva-p...

Anti-trans author “Peachy Keenan” tried (and failed) to scrub all connections between pen name and real name. Here's my new profile of Laurie Stalberg Gigliotti, who in 2024 wrote a piece titled "Send Transgender Women to Space. All of them. Please." www.transgendermap.com/people/peach...

NEW: "Logan Lancing" (aka Trevor Stieg) co-authored anti-trans book 'The Queering of the American Child' with James Lindsay & spoke at hate group Genspect's conference last month. Stieg also performed as hip-hop artist "ClubZz," but most of that's now scrubbed.

Updated my profile of Genspect advisor "Shannon Thrace" (aka Shae Ramsey), a "trans widow" who wrote '18 Months: A Memoir of a Marriage Lost to Gender Identity.' Unaccepting spouses & parents rarely have their versions of things countered by trans loved ones. www.transgendermap.com/issues/topic...

Finally got around to starting a profile on right-wing philanthropist and "autogynephilia" activist Andrew Conru.

Conru has been funding eugenicists, white nationalists, and "autogynephilia" activists like Kevin Hsu, James Morandini, and "Phil Illy."

Controversial autism researcher Simon Philip Baron-Cohen went on far-right white supremacist podcast the Jolly Heretics (run by eugenicist Edward Dutton) in 2023. Dutton spent the whole time whinging about how autistic people should be allowed to say "what others don't want to hear."

I don't blame Hasan for this, but it is deeply concerning how willing Jubilee is to platform the far-right and give these meaningless, insignificant people a presence. This is CREATING their influence.
I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives (racists? fascists?) on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.'

Here are some of the highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Here's the full 'debate': www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S-W...

“Wow look at me own 20 shitty groypers you’ve never heard of” and “check me out debating some Hitler lover on Piers” is not to change minds, it’s to raise your profile and, in exchange, you raise the profile and political career on some fash who should’ve been left to posting in the void but alas

Every episode is like, here’s a bunch of neo-Nazis you’ve probably never heard of and we’re not gonna disclose that information to you, but we’ve been helping to grow their online career thanks to their repeated willingness to participate in slop like this
You know I already hated Jubilee, but their open love for inviting Neo Nazis onto their platform is getting to be past the point of absurdity. Their latest episode is literally 20 Neo Nazis versus Mehdi Hasan.

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.
