I agree with you on most things. But I still don't understand how "kill all white people", "kill all yanks", "kill all transmisogynists" or "kill all men" are all understood as an expression of frustration by victimized groups, but suddenly "kill all rapists" or "kill all pedophiles" when expressed by a victim of sexual abuse is bad? "Kill all racists" doesn't mean "have the state murder everyone ever accused of racism" but it does when it's for rape?
Ok, I'm gonna try to make this very clear and simple.
TL;DR version being "if you say 'kill all rapists' you would've cheered the murder of Emmett Till and many others, much like other whites at the time and now did."
Marginalized groups, particularly Black and Transfeminine people, are often falsely accused of being specifically rapists and pedophiles particularly by groups that hold systematic power over them as a basic tool of white supremacy. They do this specifically as justification to kill these marginalized groups, as society often sees marginalized people accused of those things as de facto guilty, compared to for example white men who are often assumed innocent.
Comparatively, marginalized groups are very rarely falsely accused of being yankees, crackers, etc. specifically as justification for a call to murder/lynching/etc. of specific individuals.
The difference is that the material conditions and interactions with white supremacy surrounding these groups you've provided examples of are wildly different. If you are branded a pedophile as a trans women (such as the current US administration has been repeatedly trying to do to all of us lmfao) you will be automatically seen as guilty by many around you and lose a lot of your support network outside of other trans women who have seen the same thing happen.
Meanwhile, if you get accused of being white its just kinda. lol. Its something often easily falsifiable with a picture and a timestamp paper, whereas accusations of being a rapist or pedophile are often non-falsifiable.
So when you say some shit like "kill all pedophiles", a lot of trans women will end up hearing you say that and going "oh you'd want me dead even if I was innocent" because it is often going to be an incitement to mob/vigilante justice, such as "set your local abuser on fire". There's rarely any talk of actual justice, ensuring there's anything beyond the exile and/or death of the target, etc.
Seeking actual justice for everyone involved, especially if the system failed the victim, should still not result in the evaporation of basic human rights for the targeted party, guilty or not.
