  1. second wave feminism got a lot of traction in the uk and they are the original terfs
  2. third wave wasn't particularly successful, partially due to the perceived success of the second wave
  3. people who hold transphobic views can point at prominent second wavers and use them as a shield
  4. people who are ignorant and/or don't have any opinion are told by second wavers that trans people are bad and don't question it
