Intersex transfems who are AFAB do not literally call themselves AFAB transfems in their bios, but they do sometimes talk about their transition, and not allowing them to do so & calling them terfs for existing is intersexist. Intersex people's bodies do not align with the male/female binary. That's literally the point of the word intersex. Someone AFAB could have a body that has more male traits than female traits (for lack of better wording), within the intersex community we sometimes use CTF (close to F) or CTM (close to M) to describe our bodies. Every intersex transfem AFAB I have met has described herself as being CTM and is transitioning in a very similar way to your typical transfem. Some intersex AFAB people are literally reassigned male during childhood, often at puberty. It isn't transphobic for their voices to be heard. This all goes for cistrans/transcis intersex people, transfemmasc intersex people, exparium intersex people, or whatever else intersex identity exclusionists have decided is a "troll identity,,

And these people existing doesn't force you to call yourself AMAB. In fact, the intersex community generally avoids AGAB terminology because it's been made reductive and useless by perisex people who think it means anything related to biology. It isn't us who put so much emphasis on AGAB to the point people feel pressured to disclose it when talking about our identity. That's your (perisex people generally I mean) fault.

I won't deny that TERFs have co-opted the intersex experience of transfeminine people AFAB. I've seen it. Alongside 'biotrans' (which is actually just TERF shit and not co-opted from any actual real community.) You all fail to recognize that refusing to acknowledge TERF co-opting of intersex issues is just as intersexist as it is for the TERFs to co-opt our issues in the first place. Stop throwing us under the bus and stop letting horrible bigots speak over us and use us against other marginalized people.

this extension has become increasingly hostile to transmascs and intersex people speaking out about their problems, falsely marking them as anti-trans. The developers repeatedly respond to any critique of this behavior with a canned response that ignores the problem and denies responsibility for their moderation of the extension to such a severe degree that it has made me go from believing there was some mistake to believing that it's the result of deliberate malice.

This extension used to be vital to navigating social media for TERFs, alt-right groups, etc. but now accounts that are inclusive of marginalized identities, that highlight discrimination faced by trans men, that are run by intersex individuals, etc. are being marked red while accounts discriminating against trans people but apparently not in a "serious enough" way (using "theyfab," ie deciding nonbinary individuals aren't trans enough) won't be marked red.

Using the latter issue as an example, it's disheartening, disappointing, and genuinely dangerous to have someone marked as green/pro-trans while allowing them to discriminate against nonbinary identities--marking an account as a safe entity or space for me to interact with as they are actively discriminating against my own identity.

And this--allowing accounts spouting harmful, exclusionary, discriminatory rhetoric to continue to be marked as green or neutral--in conjunction with marking people encouraging inclusivity and understanding, those oftentimes speaking about their own identities and experiences, as red has rendered the extension not only useless but antithetical to its original purpose.

This add-on isn't useful for any trans people that aren't perisex transwomen. And actively allows trans people who aren't perisex transwomen to be marked as transphobic for just discussing our own specific forms of oppression.

Also, people can remain marked green even if they are actively bigoted towards trans people who aren't perisex transwomen or racist towards trans people of color.

Therefore it's not terribly useful if you want to know who's safe or not if yer trans but not the intended demographic of perisex transwoman.

Also, the developers' responses towards people pointing these problems out is a very good tell that they're actively bigoted as well and do not give a shit about any trans people that arent just perisex transwomen.

* Edit: The developers literally are so fucking intersexist they are calling basically every intersex person who uses terms that describe their experiences with terminology fit for them to be TERFs.

Don't use this extension if you aren't a perisex trans woman, it's modded by bigots who are actively intersexist and transphobic towards all other trans people.

Not actually doing its job properly in marking transphobic persons as red and trans friendly persons as green anymore. Posting the same canned response to reviews discussing this issue is not helpful.

I love shinigami eyes, but the abuse of it to mislabel transmasculine people and intersex activists as anti trans is disgusting.

Used to be great, until I discovered people who talk positively about intersexism get flagged as 'anti-trans'. How many intersex people/allies have I scrolled past or blocked because shinigami eyes marked them 'anti-trans'? To silence a minority that REALLY needs everyone's support is disgusting. Intersex identities aren't 'transphobia', silencing people who choose their own labels is.

I've used this extension for many years, so it makes me feel sad to have to report that it is no longer trans-friendly. The developers have loudly proclaimed that talking about anti-transmasculine oppression, and intersex identities (such as AFAB transfems) is a good reason to be marked red.

This extension now embraces exclusionism, and talking about intersectionality is enough to get you marked red, even if you are a trans person who is actively fighting transphobia.

The issue of keeping transgender individuals online safe from those who want us dead / will doxx us should be a bigger concern than trying to alienate trans+ people you don't like.

Edit: Fellas, is it aligning my goals with that of TERFs (a group of people who want me dead) to be an intersex transfem?

man, this thing was in a slow decline for a while, but now it has taken a HARD fall. i genuinely feel embarrassed for trying to keep saying how it is still useful and good when then i see the dev(s) here shut their ears and go "LALALALA" to any and all feedback. truly truly embarrassing.

The guidelines for this extension literally say that a slur targeted at trans people is "not enough" to mark as anti-trans.
The developers have as of recently been exploiting this extension's purpose to mark subsets of the trans community they personally don't like by flagging them as anti-trans while a lot of pro-trans tagged accounts can say highly bigoted things about other groups of trans people such as trans men and non-binary people.
This is no longer an actual add-on to help trans people online but a way for transphobes to pretend they are trans-friendly while harassing trans people

edit: this developer reply is not only using rhethoric to attack non-binary people baselessly by mentioning "binary trans woman" is used against women who transition (usually transphobes wouldn't be in favor of non-binary people either so i dont understand why the claim of "long been used" was even attempted) but also avoiding the clear slur criticism by saying "controversial terms" instead
As a trans woman these kind of attempts to come up with false reasons to muster community in-fighting by falsely tagging non-binary and trans masc people as transphobic while allowing the use of slurs against those identities (like "theyfab") does nothing but make me feel unsafe about the extension if it is being misused in this way to slander and enable harassment of my fellow members of the community

Not trustworthy. Have witnessed many, MANY intersex and non-binary blogs and accounts online be marked red for [checks notes] approaching identities with nuance because the binaries people have constructed don't fit them. Despite enbyphobia being a listed reason to mark someone as transphobic. Meanwhile, many accounts are marked as trans-safe despite literally using transphobic slurs. What happened to, "don't assume someone isn't transphobic because they're trans?" Do not recommend- use your own judgment, it'll be better than whatever these people decide is "transphobic enough."

This extension is unsafe for intersex and transmasc people. Intersex and transmasc people are being marked red for talking about our experiences, identities, and the specific kinds of bigotry we face. A tool that was originally meant to protect trans people is now being used to divide the lgbt community. Intersex people having intersex specific experiences and identities is not transphobic. Transmasc people talking about how transphobia affects them is not transphobic.

Edit: Telling intersex people we aren't allowed to describe our experiences with language that differs from perisex people is wildly intersexist. Erasing intersex identities and experiences is more in line with the goals of TERFs than a transgender intersex person using language differently than you to describe the differences in their experiences. Also, trans women who were afab calling themselves that doesn't force anyone else to do shit. It's literally just them describing their own lived experience.

No longer trustworthy, they're now marking transmen and intersex people as not safe for the crime of -checks notes- not being exclusionist, talking about ways transphobia affects them, and intersectionalism. These discussions are very important to our movement and we shouldn't be redlisting these voices.

echoing the other reviews - using a formerly wonderful tool to silence trans men and intersex folks is a terrible look. eagerly looking forward to a spinoff fork of this from someone less shitty.

editing to follow up to the dev response: at no point did I say trans women should use that terminology? thanks for the ad hominem response that does nothing to address the issue at hand, that accuses us of being TERFs to boot. keeping my review at one stars. i would rate it 0 if i could.

Was v excited about this and used it for tumblr. As a trans man I follow many blogs, trans femme and trans masc. Most of my activist trans masc follows are marked as red for talking about transmisandry and apparently got mass reported. So yeah this isn't useful for trans men. Asking around and apparently there's issues with intersex blogs as well so that's fun. Human bias within the dev team prevails. Thanks for that.

This used to be a really useful tool, but it's now flagging lots of trans and intersex folks for having the audacity to be inclusionist. Allowing bigotry against trans masc, intersex, and nonbinary people in the tos is not a good look!!

Edit to add: developer response absolutely incomprehensible and responding to a problem I did not mention and have never seen anywhere?? Girl help.

Used to be one of my favourite extensions. I cannot express how disappointed I am to see what this has become. Allowing usage of enbyphobic/exorsexist slurs to be considered 'not enough to mark someone as transphobic', while considering those identifying in good faith with typically intersex identities as a valid reason to mark some as transphobic is frankly disgusting. An extension like this was probably doomed to fail at some point, but it's very disappointing to see it happen regardless.

Aside from the problem with the guidelines, the moderation team needs to get a handle on the blatant transandrophobia, because the last 4 red flagged accounts I've seen have just been people discussing transmasc opression. It's very easy to tell when those accounts are also transphobic in some regard and they very much were not. Though I'm going to guess that this is by design. I kept it for a while but it's not catching terfs anymore, just trans people minding their own business that yall disagree with.

edit: developer response is ridiculous. intersex people defining themselves in a way that aligns with their complex personal experiences isnt forcing trans women to label themselves as male at all. i thought we were long past treating other good faith identities as a threat. and ive seen amab transmascs too, in about equal number to afab transfems. funny how you dont mention those. personally as a trans bloke that lot hasnt made me feel threatened! maybe its time to listen to intersex people instead of keeping to your narrow, and frankly biased viewpoint.

cannot emphasize enough how bad an idea it is to trust some random add-on maintainer's curated list to tell you who is a Good Person and who is a Bad Person. even apart from the verifiable misuse of this tool, it is just foundationally a bad idea.

This was once useful for flagging bigots - it is now itself exclusionary.

It's "alright", but it's not as useful as it should be. I've seen *trans* people be *wrongfully* marked as transphobic, over simply asking to be treated with respect for being part of other minorities, or for using microlabels and other niche identities that certain people using this extension have decided are "harmful" and "mocking". It would be a lot nicer to use had I known that I could speak up about struggles and minorities that still aren't "important" to most people without wrongfully being marked as transphobic. Additionally, in the guidelines it says that.... Actual bigotry against trans people isn't enough to get marked as transphobic???

Shinigami Eyes was a great idea and I've enjoyed it for many years. However, I think a new dev team has taken over (or the values of the dev team have changed drastically), as they've now taken it upon themselves to highlight trans people they don't like, including intersex activists, kids using odd labels/neopronouns, transmascs and transfems of color who discuss their unique experiences with transphobia, and transfems who are genderfluid or use he/him pronouns - in short, any trans person who's "cringe" or uses the "wrong" language.

Shinigami Eyes was invented to highlight dangerous transphobes, like TERFs and alt-righters, and it's really disappointing to see it misused to destroy trans solidarity. I'm sorry, but I just don't believe members of my own community are a danger in need of ostracism, just because they say things I don't like.

The dev team needs to get their shit together and stop splitting up our community. Especially in this time, where we need solidarity more than ever.

Edit, since I can't respond directly to the developer's response: Since when are we letting TERFs dictate our language? No one is forcing trans women to do anything. If you let yourself be pushed around by TERFs, and letting TERFs force you to disclose your assigned gender, that is your own problem. You don't have to define yourself by your assigned gender, just because other people do.

Being used to silence people who speak on Intersex issues as well as transmasq topics
