Not my usual kind of source (Xitter), but I want any centrists out there who ask trans people to "just get along" / compromise with actual hate groups that want them eradicated to know that it doesn't work.

There is no such thing as a reasonable bigot, by definition.

Maybe in general, but in this case Wu is a far right genocidal fascist, and not just on trans issues. And it certainly doesn't seem like she's changing that except on the one issue that affects her personally. A trans woman fascist is still a fascist, you shouldn't get points for carving out an exception to your fascism to protect yourself personally.
