Here's the text for those who'd rather not visit threads.net:

There’s a lot of stuff I need to debunk which I will get to don’t worry, but I want to start with what I find the funniest which is the notorious “slightly autistic” tweet. This is gonna be a bit so just bare with me

This is entirely fake. Like, literally none of this ever happened. Ever. I don’t even know where he got this from. My best guess is that he went to the Milo Yiannopoulis school of gay stereotypes, just picked some at random and said “eh- good enough” in a last-ditch attempt to garner sympathy points when he is so obviously in the wrong even in his own fucking story.

I did not have a “love of musicals & theatre” when I was four, because y’know… I was fucking four. I did not know what these things were. My earliest real experience with musicals was when my twin brother had a hamilton phase in 8th/9th grade and overplayed it so much in the car to the point where for a long time I swore off the entire genre.

I never picked out jackets for him to wear and I was most certainly not calling them “fabulous” because literally what the fuck. I did not use the word fabulous when I was four because once again I would like to reiterate… I was four. Like this is so obvious I don’t even think it warrants explanation but apparently people believe this nonsense so here I am.

This entire thing is completely made up and there’s a reason for this. He doesn’t know what I was like as a child because he quite simply wasn’t there, and in the little time that he was I was relentlessly harassed for my femininity and queerness. Obviously he can’t say that, so I’ve been reduced to a happy little stereotype f*g-ing along to use at his discretion. I think that says alot about how he views queer people and children in general.

As for if I’m not a woman… sure, Jan. Whatever you say. I’m legally recognized as a woman in the state of California and I don’t concern myself with the opinions of those who are below me. Obviously Elon can’t say the same because in a ketamine-fueled haze, he’s desperate for attention and validation from an army of degenerate red-pilled incels and pick-mes who are quick to give it to him. Go touch some fucking grass✨

Answering another user, she adds:

gotohitori2: extremely shocked to hear this dbag is a liar. hope you're not too bothered by what he says about you 😭

vivllainous: I’m not lol. I’ve just started to find it funny at this point. Calling me dead on a podcast with JORDAN PETERSON of all people while basically admitting you have zero reading comprehension by saying you were “tricked” into signing documents that you read over multiple times is basically a parody of itself. Like it’s honestly camp-

Is the joke there that you have him a feminine nickname?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There's no joke other than calling him a name that clearly doesn't take him seriously. I call Giuliani Rutabaga. And MTG Margie. Like they're less worthy of respect because they are.

Lonnie is feminine where you live?

It's a typical "dad got me a job in the mailroom in '62, and I've been the mail room manager ever since" sheltered, working class old white guy who thinks he's middle class because he doesn't understand how rich the rich are, but he sure knows the poor aren't trying hard enough and kids these days eat too many avocados, but he doesn't bring it up unless you ask him directly.

He's a bit off with the fairies but he's only a little racist compared to mates his age, that old Lonnie.

I don’t think of Lonnie as a feminine name, but it’s definitely an older one. I think of it like Glenn or Gary

I've known a couple Lonny's -- never heard it used as a feminine name.

Diminutive is what it is. Historically for Alonzo.
