can we bring that thing from tumblr of calling TERFs FARTs

Feminist Appropriating Reactionary Transphobe

@scottishwobbly problem is, that denies that there's lots of transphobic feminist history. TERFs aren't appropriating feminism, they're using it to fuel their own ends. sure, it's funny, but I've seen trans people rolling their eyes because so what if we change the language? we need to confront the roots of the issue

@lesbian @scottishwobbly the term TERF has gotten so diluted as well, encouraging extra terms to it isn't gonna help that

@kyleparker @lesbian wasn't being totally serious, don't particularly care what you call them but I like posts that take the piss out of TERFS

@scottishwobbly @kyleparker of course, I just figured it should be said. whatever we call them we can agree that TERFs fucking SUCK

@scottishwobbly @lesbian yeah I get that. I guess it's just that I personally don't want to make fun of terfs, I want to take them seriously, because they're violent. making fun of them on the Internet isn't going to do anything, and it feels like a lot of people don't take it seriously haha. like. feel free to make fun of terfs as long as ur also vocal about the violence and death they cause trans ppl every day ✌️✌️

@kyleparker I can see that and it's important not to forget or shut up about the serious violence & damage they cause the LGBT community, but I also think there's something in making TERFs, like fascists, feel like their vitriol will cause them to be ostracised and ridiculed
