I prefer to meet trans people in person to get to know them and judge them based on their actions like any other person rather than what I believe is on their minds.
Sadly, there are multiple trans exclusionist movements in the US and UK who are glad to presume the worst of all trans folk, and seek to criminalize as much of their presence as possible when they aren't advocating literally massacring them.
Even the TERFs of the UK have admitted they're really not all that RF. It's really about the TE.
