@rose yeah I don't think Ro himself is actually transphobic or responsible for it. I think the instances he pulled from have an issue with transmisogyny. And like you said, they're mostly white. And I do understand *why* he might rhetorically frame things as he does. But the rhetoric is still disingenuous and has the effect of being a trap that makes it hard for trans women to speak up, and tone polices them regarding the harm he's caused, and protects him from criticism, while simultaneously, *again* and *again* painting trans women as racist.
