No, it's a lot of words to say that it's more effective to unite around common causes than become atomized into many groups that all compete with each other.
How does me being trans compete with any goal of the working class?
How can I participate in the class struggle when I'm barred from many leftist organizations because of transphobia? Many of which couch their transphobia in Marxism. How can I work to find common ground with someone who denies my existence?
Many socialist states have women's caucuses that provide women with a means to exert their will politically. This is not "dividing and atomizing" the working class. It is enfranchising disenfranchised parts of the working class.
As usual, it's "there are bigger things at hand. You'll have to wait. We'll get to your rights later"
My whole point was that being trans does not compete with any goal of the working class. What I actually said is that these causes need to be contextualized within the overarching context. Nobody is suggesting you have to unite with orgs that are transphobic and deny your existence. I get the impression you're not engaging in good faith with what I actually said.
