TERFs & SWERFs aren't the only waste products to have emerged from the Exclusionary RadFem sewerage pipe?

Radical lesbian feminism is a product of 1970s second-wave feminism, which also included liberal doses of sex-negativity, kinkshaming, and biphobia.
Radical feminist adherents who are TERFs tend also to be SWERFs. And the people who have historically been responsible for TERF and SWERF thinking also promoted sex-negativity, and biphobia.
In addtion they are against the queer identity itself - they view queer theories on gender and sexuality - and third-wave feminism - as a 'direct attack' upon their second-wave brand of 'radical lesbian feminism'. They see it as legitimising trans identities, kink, sex positivity
They are generally scornful of other queer sexualities and genders, scornful of attempts to build alliances or coalitions that support all non-normative genders and sexualities, and have worked to undermine and divide the LGBTQIA+ community in any way they can.
Radfem attacks against trans people are well known and talked about often. But is important to understand they will recruit people to their cause through a variety of means. The TERF track, the SWERF track. But they also feed into exclusionary discourse: (a/bi)phobia, etc
Anything that can divide the queer community, serves their agenda. So they set the L against the B against the T, and radfems have absolutely stoked aphobia as well and many of us have receipts to prove it.
If they can convince people that the community is being 'infiltrated by invaders' and set people off against each other, if such division is commonplace and 'normal', the ground is more fertile to plant anti-trans narratives, and they can slowly radicalise people further.
The best way we can combat their agenda is to reject ALL forms of exclusionary behaviour; to refuse to let them divide us; and build the welcoming and inclusive movement they most fear, because then they cant "divide and conquer" us any longer, and NOTHING will be able to stop us
Exclusionary rhetoric is a 'gateway drug' to radical feminism:
Here's another post with a radfem highlighting how exclusionary rhetoric is parroting radfem rhetoric, 'invites' people to join them, and says several people have taken them up the offer:
