(Excerpts)

TERF’s — Trans Exclusive Regressive Fascists — are tools of the far right/alt-right establishment of America and the UK. They are bigots who promote transphobia as a political stance. They exist as agent provocateurs tasked with preventing the LGBTQ community from gelling into a cohesive political force that can oppose fascism. They claim to be “lesbians” and “feminists” while functioning as proxies for the white male oligarchs that seek to bury any and all queerness and to trap women in servitude.
...
You make a group that does everything the TERF group does, but without the unnecessary hate. Yet the TERF group finds a way to persist. Now what?
A gradual strategy that can succeed is infiltration and replacement. Entryism is a century old non-violent tactic that works in any group that uses voting to determine leadership. Gather a group of like-minded allies, join the group, and then vote one another into key positions. Attract more via outreach and over time the group will be geared toward promoting social justice and human rights.
...
So what’s next after that? Direct action.
Direct action is where you go from targeting an institutional or organization to singling out the key leaders and propellants of hate. History shows that when singled out, many bigots will renege on their hateful ideas and begin to reform. And if they don’t, then their communities can expel them.
TERF’s, like all Nazis, have no right to a peaceful existence or steady employment. They have declared their support of fascism and have therefore declared their intent to directly harm the trans community wherever they’re found. They threaten the safety and dignity of others and therefore deserve none themselves until they choose to be human once more.
The usual caveats to the direct action approach apply. Be careful of misidentifying people. Attacking bystanders just makes TERF’s look sympathetic. Don’t do anything you can’t handle the consequences of.
...
Control access to safe spaces
...
Doxxing is another effective tool
...
Property damage is another escalation up the chain of direct action
...
What about bodily harm against bigots? Is that a valid tactic? Yes, but with important considerations.
...
It’s important to avoid killing

Plain sight. Good. Let the batshit stand on its own merits.

I still smile wryly every time I pass the title of this thread. 'Transforming'.... yeah, only by trying to hostile take over and control administrators, the ability to actually engage with and participate we have seen here is just non existent. There's no winning hearts and minds involved, just threats and rage and trying to cause enough fear to get own way. Toddler behaviour in big bodies.

And still rather amused at the naivety of belief that anyone posting on FWR ever shares real personal information, or is honest in all details here as if all interns were sweet little well intentioned souls.

"There was a very unpleasant blog circulating yesterday, discussing how to punish women for their wrong think.
I'm not going to link to it, but I've written some helpful tips for anybody writing similar.

Excellent article, sadly nailing the truth of the situation.
