      How elsea am i supposed to read this take here within the context of her post:

      Are you even serious in your delineations? I’ve been deliberately abused by someone whose attitude on the matter boiled down to “your transness is real but it doesn’t matter if you’re trans: if an afab abuses you and you get mad about being abused, then you don’t actually care about women”. I guess that ends up being transmisogyny by definition but it’s still weaponizing this “mEn R eVuL” bullshit. But you know what, it’s not just about trans women being misgendered,

      That outright says “i don’t buy that you don’t include at least some trans women in this.” And why the part about “Palestinian men not being worthy victims”? Were have i said anything to that extent? Who is putting words in whose mouth here?

      She can’t even be arsed to defend this herself, and i’ve had an awful day, i’ve full-on dissociated for half of the evening because i’ve got my back up against the wall and have no idea what to do about it, but sure, go ahead, add some more to the online drama, it’s such a welcome distraction from not getting healthcare.

      And why? Because i refused to engange in “not all men” bullshit. That’s literally her stance, that women HAVE to make sure we use that antifeminist dogwhistle and even that is not enough for her:

      I used to think the excuse of “when we say men we don’t mean all men, just the bad ones” was meant seriously, but turns out it’s way easier to use it as a very convenient excuse to never learn any trigger control and never grapple with their own capacity to be abusive than to actually put those words into practice.

      And that’s not even getting into all the implications about me being “abusive” and “unsafe” that she keeps repeating. Have you never seen how trans women get ostracized? When she loads an entire wall of text up with stuff like that and lets it drop that she’s been inquiring about me behind my back, what am i supposed to think of that? Because she did that, too, she outright says so, as you could have noticed when reading her post three times over.

      At this point, i can’t believe i didn’t report that post.

        • I think her point is more about essentialist thinking, and I don’t think it’s a fair interpretation to construe her as comparing you to a terf.

          You’re seriously telling me that “i have a hunch you would count some trans women as actually men” is NOT comparing me to a terf? Are you fucking kidding me?

              I think that’s pretty far from assuming good faith in her, which is a rule on this website.

              This would’ve also required the original reply to assume good faith as well. As I stated to CommunistCuddlefish I’m removing the remaining comments in this thread for violations of rules 4 (misogyny), 5 (harassment, demeaning), and rule 14 (not being charitable), see my reply to her a brief explanation and feel free to reach out to me if you’d like further clarification.

                I’m also going to reply to this specifically

                The user who deleted their account has repeatedly used bad faith against users and blatantly broken the code of conduct yet nothing is ever done to address this conduct on the site previously.

                  you’ll know that she did not offer a single argument against the ask that this is just white people brainworms

                  She specified in her very first reply that she was referring to white men. She also didn’t owe a reply to this specific question, especially as it was framed as dismissive rather than an earnest question,

                  Also, if you could just review the deleted comments, why bother her over this instead of me?

                  I couldn’t at the time, mods do not have this ability.

                  I also have to delete this as it contains a screenshot of a user deleted comment. Honestly I shouldn’t have even asked here what was originally said, that’s my mistake. If you want to show me such things please do so in DMs.

                    Hey hang on a sec, the Code of Conduct doesn’t say shit about deleted comment screenshots. Lying like this is pretty sad as well.

                    Burning the evidence for this while moderating other users about it is genuinely pathetic but I’ll do as you ask.
