"Gender is a performance and that means trans women are basically the same as drag queens" or whatever is one of those situations where the theory doesn't actually say that, like when someone invokes quantum mechanics to claim that you're actually able to astral project through the multiverse.
Unlike quantum mechanics, feminism is a field where the theory is available in natural language, without a need to know a bunch of math notation to understand what's going on. You can just pick up the text and read the words in order to find out what they're communicating.
This is a much more reliable way to learn than its more popular counterparts, "hearsay" and "going off vibes".
Conversely:
Republicans throwing on flannel and camo and driving around million+ population cities in lifted trucks is FAR more similar to drag queens than (almost) any trans woman.
