This whole thing honestly reminds me of the "drag culture is transphobic!" discourse that took over trans Twitter a few years ago. Now they're trying to claim that drag falls under the trans umbrella, but also men wearing dresses is transphobic. They cannot get their minds together.

That discourse is especially ironic imo because most of their "historical" trans people are drag queens they've transed. Also, they need to get rid of drag queens cause it's extremely inconvenient to their narrative that drag queens have existed longer and are more prevalent than trans people. Also shows gay men can be GNC in the most extreme way, up to and including spending hours looking like a woman (often more successfully than trans people imo), use female pronouns during shows (and get people to voluntarily call them that), and, in some cases, be successful performers. Drag queens just demolish their narrative.
