[Link to mentioned post]: are terfs actual feminists or do most transphobic women just call themselves that?

As a feminist who stans for transpeople I personally don't believe terfs to be feminists and there are a couple of reasons as for why I believe this to be the case:

Transwomen believe themselves to be just as genuine as cisborn women. As such, transwomen often fight for the same rights and desires that cis women want. Empowering transwomen also help cis women in this system, so kicking down your fellow allies and supporters is suicidal.

For those reading this, if you believe that you're a true feminist then I strongly recommend supporting and standing with the transcommunity as they will help you in reciprocal quid pro quo fashion.โœŠ๐ŸŒป


I'm making this post in order to hopefully reach out to terfs who might be misunderstanding as to why they should be supporting trans people rather than attacking them.
