TERFs are a hate group, additionally, we need to address them in lesbian spaces, we need to address them within our community. They are making the claim that TERF is a slur against lesbians - we lesbians need to push back against this. And they *are* within our community, and they *do* use us as a shield and a political bargaining chip.
