CN: indirect mentions of transphobia

It's always super interesting to see the way that people talk in an ideologically oriented subreddit such as this (though less so nowadays due to bots)

!One of the most interesting examples of this was back before the transphobia subreddit GenderCritical got banned. When I first heard of the sub, from it's name, I thought that it would be like the exact opposite of what it actually is, like people who were critical of the entire construct of gender. Alas, it was a cess pool of hate. What I found super interesting though was that they did regular "Just no trans" threads, where they would ask people what their "just no trans" moment was. It was honestly absurd how many of the stories in these threads took the form of "I was abused by a cis man, and then struggled to get any justice against him because patriarchy often excuses these kinds of acts. Anyway, that's why I hate trans women". It made me realise how many of the people who identify as TERFs specifically are just traumatised women who feel so disempowered under the patriarchy that they feel comforted by the power they get from punching down at trans people. It's fucking tragic, because our best strategy against systemic oppression is always intersectional solidarity, and when it comes to feminism specifically, trans people are situated uniquely well to be able to strengthen the cause.!<
