Great video by Caelan Conrad who dissected the anti trans movement from their origins.

I didn't know TERFs existed even back then at Stonewall. It was such a great lesson in history.

The video also went on to show gays and lesbians who tried to be assimilationists and why it wouldn't work. i.e. Leopards eat their faces too.

A must watch for everyone who are interested in LGBTQIA+ communities. I honestly need to read more books about it.

Along those lines, there were also Jews for Hitler. Leopards ate their faces, too. These folks just don't learn from history, do they?

Yeah, LGBT "conservatives", racial minorities supporting racist policies, not-like-other-girl, etc. All lead to the same road.
