To really place this thread here in a proper context- https://twitter.com/remembrancermx/status/1252685632259846144 along with a couple others I'll link as we go here, the big villains of the day are a bunch of witch-hunting fascists whose actual targets are transparently queer women/trans people, and whose whole MO

is pretending to be vigilantes rooting out the most horrific sort of sexual abuse. The main way they bridge that gap is employing the fairly standard fascist tactic of using commonly understood words for awful things as code words for innocent things. See: https://twitter.com/SecretGamerGrrl/status/967865368298573824

More specifically in this specific context, someone recently tossed me a pretty thorough breakdown from a wiki I can't otherwise vouch for: https://failfandomanon.fandom.com/wiki/Antis 

The key takeaway here is that the main organizing lie this particular fascist group operate on is that every bullet

point on that page is completely interchangeable with every other bullet point. Terminology for anything on that list can be used interchangeably. Creating/enjoying works of fiction depicting these are equally interchangeable with doing what is depicted. And of course, the very

concept that these are very different ideas which should not be completely flattened in this fashion, or that any sort of nuance or context ever matters, is heresy one could never possibly utter if they were not The Enemy and trying to paint the whole flattened lump as just fine.

This may all seem a bit similar to the sort of... relational flexibility that one stalker who has been on my case for the past several months loves to employ. Largely because, as this thread breaks down, he's vocally all-in with this particular hate group: https://twitter.com/WhatTheTrans/status/1251872913160052736
