Do these anti-trans feminist lesbians not get that groups like the Heritage foundation really isn’t on their side cause they are women and lesbian? Like do they not see that all these groups have been for years saying homophobic retoric and racist garbage? It’s also rich that a woman from the U.K. is claiming that the U.S. exported the idea of trans and trans right when the natives in the U.S.(and Americas), and Indian sub-continent had trans rights. But, then British came and colonized the area, and criminalized trans and lgbq people.

Oh, they get it, all right. It’s just that they’ve decided they’re under less of an immediate threat from the Heritage Foundation than from trans people being allowed to *checks notes* exist in public.
