(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

don't you think the social inclusion would happen more naturally if you just fucking educated your people?

I doubt it. Bigots are too powerful. They're good at getting their messages out. They raise bigoted children. They also strongly oppose any education that might help undo these bigoted views, so you really have a chicken-and-egg situation there.

That's why it isn't enough to just not be racist; you have to be anti-racist, and I think that by the same token it isn't enough to just not be a transphobe...you have to be anti-transphobia. The bigots are organized and willing to fight, so the other side has to, too.
