It all boils down to a lack of nuance. Wokesters don't understand nuance. Two excellent competing quotes are:

The line between good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.

Life is a battle between good people an evil people.

Hua Mulan doesn't join the army because she feels duty bound to, she joins the army because joining the army is what men do and is therefore a man.

She doesn't dress as a man because, as you rightly point out, what choice did she have, she just likes wearing mens' clothes, and looming war with the norther barbarians is a perfect time to have a trans awakening.

'Be a man' and 'I'll make a man out of you' aren't (perhaps a little outdated) metaphors for 'masculine' traits like bravery or courage in the face of the enemy, they mean that 'I'll literally make you into an adult human male, with my 4th century trans ray'.

I'd like to paraphrase something I read somewhere:

Patriarchy tells us only men can join the army and fight.

Feminism tells us that anyone can join the army and fight.

Woke tells us that whoever joins the army and fights must be men.

These people are, as you rightly suggest, nuts.
