Yeah. Don’t call them gender critical. They’re not critical of gender, they’re critical of your gender. Imo you can believe that behaviors and personalities shouldn’t be linked to someone’s genitals while still being supportive of trans and non-binary folks. That’s not what these people are doing, however. If anything, they’re reinforcing it.
The “Gender Critical” crowd has long been a large crowd of trolls who just love sealioning their way into communities and gaslighting people into doubting themselves.
I speak from experience; I’m a former moderator of /r/Genderqueer.
Best thing to do is to ignore their questions and deplatform them. They’re no better than your average transphobe who hides their phobia behind “just asking questions” and “peaceful debate”
