I thought juxtaposing trans activist slang with the syntax of cowboy movie dialogue was pretty funny but I don't really expect the crowd who thought that "Soviet Catholic Foucauldian" was a real thing to get it.
As I stressed many times in the discussion on SCD, I have no interest in saying who are "real" trans people and who aren't worthy of inclusion into this coveted category. Doing so would've required me to subscribe to many of the stupidest underlying assumptions of trans activism.
The following two points stand: 1) there is no mechanism to exclude anyone out of a category based on self-ID 2) you're trying to do just that based on your perception on who "real" trans people are. There is more than one irony about this, including you actually doing "gatekeeping".
