    I know that this comes from a good place, but even if socialism could be achieved tomorrow, transphobia and other forms of bigotry would still exist. We have to actively oppose and root out transphobia, both in wider society, and especially in our own communities.

    Opposition to and the eradication of transphobia should absolutely be part of any program for workers emancipation, but we shouldn't make the mistake of thinking that such a program would, itself, stomp out transphobia.

      You’re absolutely correct. I don’t mean to sound like I don’t want transphobia squashed out. Transphobs are reactionaries that don’t serve a place in the revolution. I don’t mean to come off rude or unsupportive. Just makes me mad that people are concerned with how other want to express themselves.
