The thing about TME and TMA is, every terminology transfeminists come up with to describe “people who are targeted by transmisogynist society for transitioning away from a male assigned gender” is going to be subject to the same kind of bad-faith attacks. Even the alternate acronyms like “trabsmosgyny targeted” or whatever are just going to see the same attempts at neutralization and recuperation made against them, and be subject to the same critiques for being “binarist” or “divisive”. There’s no perfect terminology that will preemt bad-faith readings. After a certain point we just kinda have to pick something and stick with it
