Outstanding post, this part spoke to me the loudest:

Female separatism, by placing such a big emphasis on distancing the feminist movement from men, already does this. It renounces the social construction of sex by assuming that men are innately evil to a point in which that male privilege, in the context of female separatism, is trying to be handled on an individual level rather than a systemic level at this point.

I can't help but feel right now that cis men are innately evil, because if they aren't, then why do they act like that??

From a higher reasoning perspective of course this isn't true, it stems from systemic issues and systemic issues require systemic solutions.

Getting to understand the root of my frustration though I'm working on avoiding falling into traps of racism and transphobia. It's still shocking how some anger and frustration can quickly pipeline to right wing ways of thinking.
