It's the same with conservatives. They try to co-opt gendercritical to kill two birds with one stone: 1. to beat the "left" and 2. to manipulate us into believing that they are on "our side". They are not - they are enforcing the same sexist stereotypes that wokesters and TRAs do.

Pretty much. Conservatives argue that if you are a boy you must play football. TRAs argue that if you play football you must be a boy. They are almost equally rigid and regressive in stereotypes, though the left form of this allows people to choose one of the rigid sexist boxes or become a nonbinary which really is meaningless while the right argues that sex is what determines those rigid boxes.

I had several years recently when I was just too busy to follow these developments, and when I did pick it up I was truly shocked. The strong sexism from the far left has now joined the strong sexism from the far right. A pincer move against real feminism.
