Well, if it wasn’t, why not? Why isn’t he centering trans women in his tweet about vulnerable people in war zones? Doesn’t he know everything is about transwomen?
Someone so righteous he accidentally admitted that he doesn’t include transwomen in women.
Exactly.
The cult has put everyone in a bit of a linguistic bind. If we don’t name the special people (by only mentioning “women”, and not “women and ‘transwomen'”) then we are committing the violence of excluding them. However, if we do use the longer phrase, along comes a member of the language police to say “‘Transwomen’ ARE women! How dare you single them out!”
Everybody bar the most naïve of ROGD teens knows full well that ‘transwomen’ are male. These outrageous and contradictory requirements of the language everyone else is supposed to use aren’t imposed because the activists think that ‘trans’ people are vulnerable, but because the activists are abusers. Whatever we say, they can claim that we are in the wrong and have given them an excuse to punish us.
Of course, that very impossibility to get it right gives us an opportunity to point out when they themselves are breaking their own rules; but the important thing to remember about abusers is they believe that the rules they impose on others don’t apply to them.
