True but many have held transphobic views for decades, going on about how they knew trans people were trouble ever since more trans people starting coming out in the '90s, shit like that. But their views have gotten way more extreme over time so that sense I agree.

Talking about the older terfy lesbians I knew. The younger ones did mostly get radicalized online, often through rad fem tumblr.

The ones who got radicalised way back were so by different means, of course, but I didn't specify "online". Methods like intensive study groups about male pornography.

The younger ones are also anti-porn. They have basically all the beliefs of the older ones plus the added danger of knowing more about trans people and infiltrating spaces to recruit.

This old/young thing isn't helpful. Older people are being radicalised now & the others were radicalised whilst young. Today they've the far-right & evangelicals to recruit from too, the ability to enthuse people by global instant swarm & gather sparse "evidence" globally too

But there are real differences. The younger ones are often more extreme and transphobic. What older and younger rad fems believe is often different and older radical feminism was way more of a real liberation movement than what it's become today.

Nah, look at the digusting older ones in many of the live stream from their recruitment videos. When young the older ones actually tried to kill us, which the young now don't. In 1978 they radicalised against us by printing post-SRS care instructions in their LWL newsletter

I think we're talking about different people. I know of the folks you're talking about but mostly stayed away from them/didn't have much direct contact. More moderate older rad fems interacted with the younger ones I knew personally. Never physically attacked anyone afaik.
