Oh, I remember when someone I know called Mike freaking Pence a TERF. You know, former Vice President Mike Pence, the renowned radical feminist. That was the day I realized that TERF meant nothing and everything all at once.

Yes - the putting words (and politics) into our mouths is so incredibly frustrating. Wishing violence on people who you've clearly never listened to - and never will, because it's uncomfortable to confront your own doublethink or misogyny - is half of what's really upsetting me about this post.

Aghrr. Comments asking what this has to do with women, and that TERFs are mainly male… what?? The constant conflation with transphobia/bigotry vs. transgender ideology’s incompatibility with radical feminism is really starting to bug me. I guess normies don’t get that this violence against TERFs is specifically aimed at women and not the violent men who are a real danger to them.
Not to mention the idea that this is a left/right issue as standard. Plenty of left wing women have spoken up about this but no one cares. Its easier to dismiss it all as hateful bigotry and nothing more.
