Gender critical views are part of radical feminism, so they're inherently leftist.

Originally by definition—yes.

But if the world has shifted and radfems are the ones now saying hold on, we're still here and women are still women, that's a seemingly conservative opinion these days, in relative terms.

Really I don't know what these terms mean anymore when nobody can even agree on objective reality. I say that's a man, and I think how could anyone disagree but there we are.

Trans ideology may be couched in progressive terms but its just repackaged misogyny. I think the only reason we are seeing all these non binary Identities, being added to the trans umbrella, is to disguise the inherently regressive binary gender ideology that is the backbone of Trans ideology. With feminism, non binary Identities are redundant, because you are encouraged to enact gender as you choose anyway.

Oh and when it comes to politics I'm on the left. I just wish we could move beyond identity politics and actually focus on improving living standards. I swear the main reason western political parties encoursge identity politics is to keep us from realising, that there is little difference between them. They both back big business and work for their donors.
