Are things changing in feminism?

Do you think there is a sense of change in feminist politics?

It seems to me more feminist scholars, philosophers and scientists are openly critiquing certain practices in transgender activism and LGBT organisations. Im thinking here for example - of kathleen stock's writing which invites dialogue and deserves a lot more detailed engagement from those critical of her arguments.

A few years back, i recall invocations of terfs and 'crazy radfems', pushed to the fringes and no-platformed (im thinking bindel here as an example). Now, i see more scholars writing about issues with male privilege, socialisation and violence frequently elided in discussions on trans rights.

Is it just me? What does the future bring?

Bindel tweeted an overview of what happened to her for anyone a little hazy on the details: threadreaderapp.com/thread/1037668994269040643.html
