i’m seeing posts saying that umbrella terms like queer and mogai are bad because they harm trans women, in ways such as it’s lumping us in with our oppressors, and assuming shared identity where there is none.

which is cool and all but each one of these posts champion LGBT as the less problematic alternative, completely unironically. even going so far as bringing up the myth that we’re “an historic coalition of SGA and trans people”, which i’m not going to get into what a rewrite of history that is today

it’s like the cis lgbp folk finally got around to listening to all the reasons we don’t like LGBT, only to recycle our words to justify ripping queer out of our mouths.
