Someone purposefully drove in a crowd at Pride today in my city. Aside from more rioting, what's it going to take to get the TERFs and related scumbags to just leave people alone?

Wow, didn't know about this event happening today. Fuck! Hard to say how this could be prevented without more info. Hopefully they at least catch the driver.

Hatred tends to drive people a lot harder than love in modern society. Someone who loves and is passionate at something might work on it for years and years until they get to their goal. Hate works in the opposite direction. It motivates people impulsively and years of progress in society are threatened by one, or dozens, of events. This is why I think it happened. And stopping it is entirely a group effort that hasn't been fully actualized yet.

Generally I’d cast a wider net than TERF. Many transmisogynsts aren’t even feminist, and even fewer are “radical” ones.

And what does “radical feminist” even mean in 2026? It seems like a late 20^th^ century anachronism.

Ya, this was a repost, and TERFs was specifically used because of the wizard costume in a reference to a certain fantasy author. But it looks like it could be edited to another word pretty easily since the black robe background behind TERFs. Could probably just put bigots in there.

Are TERFS incels? Genuine question. I think both groups at least share similarities
