TERFs are not a movement of feminists or of leftists or even a movement of women TERFism is a *strategy* of using feminist and left-wing *language* to advance a right-wing goal It's completely transparent to anyone who's analyzed it at all in good faith

You are not actually in charge of setting transphobic policies in the UK, you are a rando on Twitter Liz Truss is in charge of that, and while she is a woman, she is not a "leftist" in any sense, even the nominal sense, she's been a Tory since she was at uni

Scuttle off, rage-boy, you're embarrassing yourself. I'm sure I'd remember if I claimed to be in charge of setting transphobic policies in the UK.

Okay So why do you express skepticism at my opinion that a Conservative Party policy implemented by a Conservative Party politician as part of the Conservative Party platform is conservative

I didn't express skepticism. That was all in your head. Every single part of it flowed straight from your overwrought imagination onto your own Twitter feed. I was no part of it. Are you ill? You seem ill.

One of the most tiresome things about arguing with chuds is saying "I didn't say X" if you don't directly quote them saying X because they themselves cannot read and paraphrase and therefore think anyone who can is unhinged

I said TERFism is a right-wing ideology, you expressed skepticism of that belief based on the unsupported claim that TERFs are left-wing feministshttps://twitter.com/latsot/status/1291282534370807808?s=20 …

Once again, I suggested an alternative explanation for your claim, that is all. I said nothing whatsoever about your opinion on Conservative policy.

The point you seem to be missing here is that you're arguing that policies that the tories are happily implementing are left wing. Would you argue that the tories here are being left wing with their laws or are you trying to cover up the fact that you're talking shit?

I'm not arguing about Tory policies *at all*. Seriously, a bit more reading comprehension and a little less hyperbole, please: I suggested what I think is a more parsimonious explanation than Chu's to a point he made. That's all.

Okay, even if I accepted every single shitty premise you're advancing, you're now arguing that instead of the liberals all turning conservative, the conservatives somehow all turned liberal

I could just as easily turn this kind of argument on you Tons of people have tried it and it just bounces off If TERFism is such a left-wing feminist ideology, why do the actual Tories love it so much?

Your whole argument is that trans rights were a "right-wing" platform because Theresa May halfheartedly pandered to trans people for like five minutes, and you're actively gaslighting us about the history of the Tories both before and after that
