I'm arguing that proponents of gender identity ideology are not making feminist (or coherent) arguments.

And I'm pointing out that coherence or factuality has never been a requirement of feminism. You can dislike or disagree with the intersectionals all you want, so far you've given no argument other than naked assertion that they aren't feminists.

Sigh. I've provided lots of arguments. You just declined to read the articles I sent to you. You don't like feminism, I get it.

I skimmed them, encountered nothing I haven't seen before and responded to your overall points accordingly. If there's any specific argument you think I'm overlooking, name it, if not, stop deflecting to those articles.

You are now asking me to justify the existence of feminism, not to defend my position on gender identity. This is an entirely separate argument than the one you began with. I'm on my way out, and honestly not interested, atm, in defending the existence of feminism on twitter

Nothing of the sort. I'm asking you to explain your endlessly repeated assertion that intersectional feminism is antifeminist. The fact that this is such a nettling question for you to answer should be a red flag that maybe you need to rethink this issue.

"Intersectional feminism" isn't anti-feminist. Intersectionality is about understanding that women of colour are oppressed in more than one way, not just via patriarchy, but via white supremacy.

Intersectionality is why trans issues are now considered feminist issues ya doof. If you have a problem with the latter you have a problem with the former.

No it's not. The woman (Kimberlé Crenshaw) who came up with the term/theory of 'intersectionality' explains what it means quite clearly. You clearly have not read her work. Trying to equate white men who want to be women to woc is ridiculous, ahistorical, and insulting.

The intersection of race and sex is BUT A SINGLE EXAMPLE of intersectionality. All squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are square. The concept extends to literally any other avenue of identity and/or oppression: class, sexuality, (dis)ability, etc. etc. etc.

PS feeling insulted isn't an argument. All of feminism is ahistorical and ridiculous, so again, not an argument. Do better.
