Its terf arguments without saying it out loud. And they want to do it with each letter as they all get peeled away. Trans and enbys are the easy ones cause the straights think theyre icky and confusing. Then the bisexuality cause sigh they just need to make up their minds, amiright? The gays go next cause lesbians are hot, but two men kissing makes me feel a certain kind if way that i am not ready to deal with. Finally the lesbians are thrown into the kitchen because by then the christofascists have taken over, and a handmaids tale won't be fiction any more.
