First problem is your writer is a cis woman who has no experience with being a trans woman. Where are the trans writers with bylines here?pic.twitter.com/rETpOd7i8j

Hackneyed opener about DNA tests to reinforce biological essentialism. This is also known as the "Rachel Dolezel gambit". Race =\= genderpic.twitter.com/QXJD2KP1WK

Neither does nationality, so why the opener? We're all aware of DNA, even trans women.

I'd like to know how these cis feminists are being supportive? Has anyone asked specifically how they're supporting trans women?pic.twitter.com/vJ3vu2xzTH

Because just saying "I don't care how trans women live" isn't really support, it's indifference.

How do you get from 'not real women' to 'murder.' What do you suggest to make ppl accept trans identity. Reeducation camps?

But the problem is clearly murder, not thinking ppl are men.Nearly every time someone identified as man, murder does not follow
