I believe the tweet is referring to a specific type of online marxist who are transphobic.

Let me know if I should edit the title.

    There are lots of conservative armchair communists online, not so much irl. But the online ones create the public impression that all marxists are transphobic, anti-feminist, and racist and this very powerfully sticks in the minds of anarchists, including people I’ve known irl.

        I think that might be what it evolves to, in the end. But imo most current patsocs (even Maupin and Haz) are just useful idiots who don’t see the connection even when people are drawing big red circles around it for them. They think (deep in the part of their brain they use to justify their worldview to themselves) that reading Lenin makes them immune to propaganda.
