New? One (TERF) is 15 years old and the other first appeared in print in 1956!

Yeah, they wouldn't know that because they've been living under a rock this whole time.

Is this what Lemmy is now?

Someone doesn't know something, so we shit on them and make personal attacks?

Everyone in existence doesn't know everything everyone else does, that's how it works.

No, we were shitting on his unwillingness to learn as evidenced by his saying he couldn't be arsed to. Meaning a quick google search was beyond him.

Well for anyone who does want to learn:

Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists, ie people who claim to be using their energy for the betterment of women but spend all day dwelling on their hatred of trans people.

Tankie: Everyone on Hexbear and Lemmygrad. People who love China for the sake of being contrarian but wouldn't last a week in China.

*Exclusionary

What you just said is a group of radical feminists that is exclusively trans.

People who live China for the sake of being contrarian but wouldn't last a week in China.

I'm not a tankie or even a leftist, but life in China is not that hard in most cities for foreigners. Or that much harder from most other places. Yes there are a lot of problems but you dilute the real criticism when you act like it wouldn't be feasible for most people to live there. Just like how most people can live in the US(assuming they have legal residence)

TERF: anti-trans for the 105 IQ point club

Tankie: Stalin did nothing wrong
