works well on tumblr but wayyyy too many false positives on twitter. like to the point where i need to wonder if a green account is an actually normal person or someone with the most rancid ideas of trans men you've ever seen. also theyfab isn't some high-tier queer theory jargon it's literally just a 4chan slur meant for community gatekeeping
edit: also looks like anyone who calls out the bs of a certain group of twitter users has a fair chance of getting marked as red for just that and nothing more. sorry but that cis woman who got outed as a notorious internet troll 10 years ago isn't gonna save you LOL
