Sorry to add and ask but there's a lot of muddy information on this current situation. As far as I'm aware, there was a trans masc exclusive subreddit that was invaded by terfs. They weren't wanted there, but they decided to try to radicalize them because they figured the trans masc were AFAB and could "come to their senses", and that trans mascs don't feel safe in general communities making them easier targets. In the first post (and I might be missing context like them being a known transphobe or something, and I know I'm missing the context of pronouns so I'm sorry if I misgender them) it just seems like they're upset that they're being lumped in with TERFs and don't want them around, and realize that part of the problem is a lack of safety in some sense? Like, the stuff trans mascs are facing probably isn't as bad as trans fems and nonbinary people, but it feels like this isn't the best post for your point? Like, I think there's some kind of circular logic of "we don't like trans mascs!" "Why?" "Some of them associate with TERFs!" "Why do they do that?" "Because we have made them feel unsafe because we don't like them!" This just seems like a person who is getting fucked over for the actions of other people in their community, so I dont see why its such a big deal. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding something here.
is essentially doing the same thing to trans men that TERFS are trying to make them do to trans womenCan you even fucking hear yourself? "If you call out trans men for transmisogyny then they're gonna have to side with the TERFs :/" so are you against TERFs or not? It costs zero dollars to not be shitty to trans women, and wouldn't you know it, people don't usually associate you with TERFs if you aren't blatantly harassing trans women!
The "these people are at best extremely useful idiots and at worst active bigots who want us dead" was specifically referring to a post that was full mask-off transmisogyny and literally claiming that trans women are trying to subjugate afab people under patriarchy (which is, believe it or not, TERF ideology!). Ditch the shitty reading comprehension or go back to Tumblr.
