TERFs want to abolish a sex-based caste system while simultaneously policing the boundaries of the very caste system they want to abolish.

Their argument is that we have to maintain in discourse the language of the binary castes in order to accurately describe XX oppression.
But they're completely unwilling to look at the way people who transgress the boundaries are oppressed by the same system.

And they're outright hostile to every effort we make to reveal how the whole binary caste system is based on bogus metaphysics.

And in fact they constantly work to reinforce and defend the conceptual scheme that justifies the binary caste system.

So like, wtf is their plan? How are we supposed to abolish the binary caste system if we constantly need to be reinforcing it—

—how does this work?? I'm genuinely confused about this part of their position.

It's almost like it all amounts to standard-issue transphobia with a veneer of radical feminism.
