Nah I'm demanding clarity. A clear question "Do you mean excluding TERFs or excluding women" and the answer is "I want to be inclusive". It may not be meant as such, and I'm definitely not implying that it was, but that's exactly how a TERF would evade questioning.

A clear "Fuck TERFs" would have provided plenty of clarity, and been much shorter. Also, it would have said "Fuck TERFs".

Idk man "exclusionary" is literally part of terf I don't think there's much ambiguity there. Fuck terfs though.

This is transmisogynistic and misogynoir as well as plain old misogyny. Don't ask me to explain. Just don't do it.

They're also complaining about "women being excluded from women's spaces by agents of the patriarchy posing as women". They're also not necessarily using "TERF" as a label. They're using typical fascist-style "words mean whatever we want them to mean in the moment" type of stuff, hiding clear-cut positions behind pretend nuance, hence why I favour clarity.

I regret my part in this recto-cranial inversion of a conversation
