Yeah it’s definitely a right wing christian agenda in this whole thing. Same as with the ‘manosphere’, which started out telling people to be tough and ‘manly’ and has ended up with something like purity culture where they evaluate women to carry their babies for them and vote against women’s rights. I even saw a stat that these same young men that follow the manosphere are starting to turn religious, surprise surprise.
This TERF shit is the same agenda but for women. And the terminology is slightly more sophisticated because it’s aimed at people that actually read and won’t believe just any story about George Soros or whatever. So their version of “woke agenda” is “trans ideology”. But they’re both the same, both fighting to preserve and enforce white christian patriarchal culture onto everyone and push down and eradicate anyone who breaks norms.
And the sad part is that I think a lot genuinely think they’re trailblazing rebels or something. But they’re doing exactly what the conservative religious right wants. The same people that want to see them reduced to kitchen appliances and baby incubators.
It’s interesting to me that they infiltrates what’s essentially been kind of a bastion of rabid pro LGBTQ+ rights media. There’s a lot of pro-trans users on Tumblr. It’d be like going to xitter and trying to infiltrate and spread pro-liberal information. The main user base doesn’t really align with that.
