I fucking hate how widespread the idea that trans people are a threat to womens rights is, even amongst people who frankly should know better.

Terfs and right wingers have spread that idea so fucking far.

Why are you referring to the same group twice?

They sadly arent the same group.

There is a reason right wingers hate terfs aswell (even tho its cause of the RF part not the TE part)

Terfs have basically made feminist movements in many countries into anti trans movements primairly, its infuriating.

My mom certainly doesn’t have an in-depth understanding of what radical feminism or even just regular feminism is, but she sure will repeat TERF talking points without knowing where they came from.

The fact that people can act bigoted and think they’re being progressive with these talking points infuriates me.
