Rereading the article, I honestly don't really consider SWERFs or TERFs to be feminists, and not even just in a rhetorical way. I didn't even mentally place them in the category of "people who could potentially be seen by others as feminists" when I read the article, which is why I was somewhat confused about the response. My bad.

That's fair, and tbh I don't either, which I suppose is the nub of why I find their positions counter to feminism.
