I'm sorry but the fucking addendum where they clarify that they specifically *are not* saying what you are extrapolating from their phrasing is IN THE SCREENSHOT. and the reputation that trans women on tumblr have for being extremely aggressive toward transmasculine people is because of the constant scrutinizing of any perspective that doesn't explicitly frame them as the ultimate victim in every situation for any opportunity to demonize the person expressing it. I understand that y'all are traumatized and justifiably skeptical of outsiders but this is so wildly counterproductive. y'all cannot expect other people to always be willing to put in infinite effort to cater their every expression to your sensibilities and yet constantly be belligerently hostile to them. more than anything else you are hurting yourselves.

awesome example of transmisogyny in action: the concept of transfems who hate transmascs is positioned as an objective reality; the concept of transmascs who hate transfems is positioned as an assumption (read: not a reality) by “transradfems” (which we can here understand as a label applied to those uppity man-hating (trans)feminists, who no longer warrant diminutives like “tiny” and “niche” and “online” but are instead a spooky contingent with a shiny new word to describe them as)
