It's a skill issue. If your feminist movement correctly identifies the past pitfalls of similar strategies and develops theory and propaganda to prevent itself from making the same mistake then it won't be an issue.

edit:

4B is a logical conclusion to both a gender essentialist & class-based analysis of male supremacy. If patriarchy is a form of class rule by men that is reproduced through heterosexuality, then the logical conclusion is for the oppressed genders to organize and strike against it. But since having actual transfeminist principles is one of the weakest links of all cisfeminist movements, they tend towards incorrect essentialist explanations of their own oppression and make liberation impossible.
