The vibe I get from most of TERF islands anti-trans paranoia is that it is yes, anti-trans bigotry, but much of it is also inseparable from and a proxy for racist bigotry.

lmfao this whole thing has me reading Caster Semenya’s wikipedia article and:
On 16 July, she set a new national record for 800 metres of 1:55:33.[84][85] On 20 August, she won the gold medal in the women’s 800 metres at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio with a time of 1:55.28.[86] The win reignited controversy over the rules on permissible testosterone levels; immediately after the race Lynsey Sharp, finishing sixth, broke into tears, having previously said that “everyone can see it’s two separate races”,[87] while fifth-placed Joanna Jóźwik stated “I feel like the silver medalist … I’m glad I’m the first European, the second white”, to finish the race.[88][89] Bioethicist Katrina Karkazis criticised the indignant response to Semenya’s win as discriminatory.[89]
