I think the best thing I’ve seen today
is a woman who went off on a small rant about how,
while she hates TERFs,
is there also a cutesy nickname for homophobic men who attack trans people because it’s coming across like we hold women to a higher standard,
and she didn’t realize that
1) the F in TERF stands for feminist, not female and
2) men can be feminists.
When all of this was pointed out,
instead of humbly acknowledging her mistake,
she doubled down on the OP for taking to task the most famous female TERF of them all – J.K. Rowling – and whattabouted him with mention of the Proud Boys.
Also,
here is something fun for you to talk about
when your Fox News-gobbling idiot family members start shrieking about the War on Christmas and liberals banning Christmas.
