I don't understand how "trans activist" has become a single concept. It's not a thing. There's just trans people who refuse to sit silently.

-
The fact that trans women can speak--and speak loudly--is a revolution not juat against society at large but against our gatekeepers.
-
There is a lot of resentment between my generation of trans women and the previous. We fight against the way they are conditioned to act.
-
But for them, it was what they had to do to live. Most trans tropes are based off what they had to do to get medical care.
-
So when people see loud trans women, they're presented in foil to those tropes, and we're given the label "trans activist" as a single word.
-
But we're not. We're activists. We're trans. And we refuse to be pressured to shut up and be good housewives anymore.
