...even identified as trans themselves at one point. They can make arguments drawing from their past experiences and knowledge of the queer/trans communities they're trying to recruit from. Their arguments can be far more compelling and dangerous because of their familiarity...
...with what they're trying to combat and criticize. This is the next generation of transphobic feminists. They're not on their way to dying out. They're young, they're committed, they know how to organize and make effective propaganda. They're activists to watch out for.
What are their other politics? Because it strikes me that there's going to end up being something of a clash there sooner or later.
The younger rad fems tend to hold more leftist views, anti-capitalist, anti-racist, anti-imperialist, etc. They're way more likely to have read actual radical feminist books but they tend to lean heavier into the cultural feminist strains of radical feminism.
Thank you for sharing. This is such unpleasant stuff and your real life data points are super valuable. 
I feel like the majority of the GC movement aren't radfems, but certainly that a strong core of it is. I think that the radfem core might start avoiding GC whilst keeping "TERFy" views, or even many do already. What do you think?
Yeah, that sounds right. I never thought of myself as gender crit when I was a rad fem and never cared for most of them. I thought they made us look bad. Some rad fems even think of gender crits as transphobic bigots but think they themselves have a nuanced political analysis.
I'm not sure how we get there but yeah, it would be good to work on that. I think we need to find ways to address how people in queer/trans communities can end up hurting each and how to help people heal from that specific trauma. It's harder to find resources for that...

There ability to continue to be present in these spaces while opposing some of the people in them is what is worrying. But it is true of all forms of bigitry that the silent form is far more invasive than the overt form you can see coming.
Thanks for commenting on this and providing some really good insight on this. Radicalisation and their recruitment process and just how committed they are is quite a scary thing to face.
