Yeah, that's the closest thing I can tell. They want either "normal" or just to reserve the term "woman" or "man" for cisgender people, and refuse to even acknowledge trans identities at all.

I mean, the guy that Elon is quoting here, ostensibly "protecting" objects to the word cis because he objects to trans people's existence in general.
