Opinion that is likely to get me crucified by randos:
I am even less convinced than I ever was that “butch is for lesbians only because bi women are safer” looking at the particular brand of hate Emma González is getting from the right.
Are they calling her a gross bisexual? No, they’re calling her shit like “skinhead lesbian” and “brown bald lesbian girl.”
If you are visibly gnc, bisexuality does not protect you. “Lesbian” is the thing you did wrong, so “lesbian,” used as an insult, is close enough.
The people who hate you read you as “butch dyke” not as “ugly lib but I can’t pierce the infinitely charged Bi Shield. CURSES, FOILED AGAIN!”
There is no But I Touch Dicks counterspell.
To our enemies, we are the same.
