Wonder how much Harry Potter money is in it, considering the biggest pushers for it are also TERFs, and that TERFs are usually not the "fun loving feminist" types, but those who think women "biologically don't like sex".

Venues in Florida seem to have been hit particularly hard in recent weeks. Both Anthem and fellow Orlando LGBTQ+ bar Savoy’s accounts were disabled on October 20, days after the city’s Come Out with Pride celebration, according to Orlando Weekly. The outlet reports that the Instagram account for Stiffy’s, another Orlando gay bar, has been down since October 24. Meanwhile, in a November 2 Facebook post, the Mari Jean Hotel, a St. Petersburg resort that includes LGBTQ+ venues Cocktail, The Wet Spot, and The Ball, says all of its original Instagram accounts were disabled on March 31.

Wikipedia editors generally identify as part of the Open Knowledge Movement, which seeks to make information free and readily accessible online. The site is crowdsourced, allowing volunteers to build and improve articles. But this also leaves its content vulnerable to hostile edits from opponents of LGBTQ+ rights and far-right groups.

Wikimedia LGBT+ seeks to better document LGBTQ+ life digitally and protect materials already published. Bisi Alimi, the group’s executive director, says the work is inherently political.

“We’ve seen it in the U.S., where we now have a government that is banning books and banning conversations around queerness in schools,” Alimi told The Advocate. He sees Wikipedia as a way to fight back against that erasure. “It matters,” Alimi said. “To us, it matters.”

Often, when older movies and shows get put on streaming services and other platforms, they get parts redacted, taking away from the original value and artistic intent of the piece as to not 'hurt' people's feelings or to push an agenda (most of the time, the latter). You cannot purchase these films legally anymore without them being censored, and as tapes and DVDs degrade, the content is lost to time.

The Nazis burned books to censor ideas and remove history. Disney redacts parts of films to hide ideologies that go against theirs and to censor the past. They're not the only organization that has committed the crime of deliberate and systematic concealment of history; this is happening everywhere. We are losing media that cannot be brought back after the fading archive of our memories is gone.

“Where they burn books, they will burn people too in the end.” — Heinrich Heine
