NextImg:250 Hollywood Celebrities Send Letter to Big Tech Companies Demanding Censorship Over Trans Issues

Around 250 Hollywood figures, spanning movies, TV, and music, have signed an open letter that asks top tech companies to silence differing views on certain aspects of the transgender narrative, including gender reassignment surgeries for minors.

Notable names like Amy Schumer, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, Jamie Lee Curtis, Judd Apatow, Patrick Stewart, and others, support the letter.

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) and the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) sent it to the CEOs of Meta, YouTube, TikTok, and Twitter.

The letter suggests a systemic failure on these platforms to moderate “hate, harassment, and anti-LGBTQ disinformation,” linking the alleged lack of oversight to an increase in real-world violence against transgender individuals.

In essence, the letter asks these platforms to limit voices that don’t fully support childhood gender transitions, which could be seen as a massive infringement on freedom of speech.

The signatories focus on practices like ‘deadnaming’ and ‘misgendering’, questioning the platforms’ strategy against content they regard as disinformation about healthcare for transgender youth.

This demand is reminiscent of how tech companies have previously handled divergent opinions on topics like the 2020 election or the COVID-19 origin.

However, public sentiment may not align with these celebrities.

A recent poll by Summit Ministries and McLaughlin & Associates found that 61% of U.S. voters worry about the early exposure of children to transgenderism and LGBTQ+ themes. About 63% of respondents believe the proponents of such exposure have a specific cultural agenda.

Another poll revealed that 73% of respondents prefer businesses to stay neutral on political and cultural issues, with over half willing to boycott companies that strongly promote these agendas.

This aligns with a poll by The Trafalgar Group and Convention of States Action, which found that 62% want corporate neutrality during Pride month, and 41% have boycotted a company for taking ‘woke’ stances.

Despite their fame, these celebrities’ call for more online moderation on these platforms is a threat to the principle of free speech.

It suggests that no individual or group, regardless of their standing, should control the narrative on complex issues such as childhood gender transitions.
