I spent too much time in the late 2000s/early 2010s feminist blogosphere to ever be swayed by the manipulations of white womanhood. Cis or trans it's the same playbook: respond to people pointing out their racism with cries of "you only think I'm a racist because you're a misogynist!!!!!" Meanwhile they're backchanneling to push Black women out of shared spaces and away from resources (although they will love them a sexist cishet Black man who will give them cover for their misogynoir, "see I can't be racist!" actually you can and you both hate Black women but anyways), they'll pay lip service to a bastardized version of intersectionality but they'll weaponize white woman tears in a minute to put a Black woman "in her place" (and let's be clear white women tears have a body count, centuries deep), they'll even let murderous white men into their ~feminist spaces~ if he keeps the ~evil scary violent Black women~ at bay (see: Hugo Schwyzer as just one example but it's emblematic of that era)
