Can we stop using the term "TERF"? It doesn't mean anything at this point. The transphobic assholes on X certainly aren't radical feminists.
What is a TERF?
Trans Excluding Radical Feminist. It's a rabbit hole and it's not much fun past the first 100 meters.
the tl;dr is that they are not really feminists, and they use feminist-sounding rhetoric to justify anti-trans views, they're basically just anti-trans activists.
For more rabbit-hole, ContraPoints has a video about "Gender Criticals" (synonymous with TERF): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pTPuoGjQsI
Her video on JK Rowling would be a good follow-up.
