It’s so weird how people are going around saying “Oh MYGOD I’m gOnna hate this halloween becausE LITTLE fuckingkiDs are going to D R E S S U P as fortNITE skins anddo those FUCKING dances”
It’s just like, Oh no, kids are going out to have fun…on a holiday meant for kids…..doing as kids do…the absolute madness of it all……….
Anyway, I think cis women who like see trans women as sisters have a certain obligation on this site to actively counter terf recruiting. Because I regularly see terfs actively recruit teenagers and young adults into their ideology (a strategically smart move if you want your otherwise dying brand of hate to stay relevant into the future). Cis allies, especially our radfem allies need to be actively countering that. Trans women, especially trans dykes like myself can’t do anything to counter it because thy kids they go after already a priori assume we have subhuman status. It can literally only be actively fought by cis women.
On my discourse blog a terf once messaged me and was very kind to me and seemed very interested in my views and my health and even wanted to be long-term friends with me. They’re incredibly manipulative and will Literally try to indoctrinate you and take advantage of your mental illness just to get you to start spreading their bigoted, transmisogynistic and rumor-based ideology.
You’re likely to be targeted if you’re a cis lesbian, a minor, mentally ill, or a discourse blog. Just remember that terfs don’t care about people, they care about numbers; i.e., trans woman numbers going down and terf numbers going up.
Also, terfs often try to exploit your own frustration with liberal feminism, and convince you that their hate and bullying is somehow the only True Feminist™ alternative to shit like woke makeup, hatred towards gender nonconforming women (especially gnc lesbians), and other forms of bougie libfeminism.
