They feel they have little/nothing of their own to lose. In some cases, legitimately so (massive student debts and poor job prospects), and others blissfully unaware of their middle-class privileged upbringings. And then they've been radicalised by social media (and sometimes mainstream media) just as much as anybody on the alt/far right.

They never have any idea of what comes next, once they've burned capitalism to the ground, though. They can't all be the ruling class of their communist utopia, and they're clearly not prepared to work in the fields or the mines. What will be left? - tens of millions dead, most of our technology gone, a smoldering dystopia run by progressive stack? (Probably still run by straight white males too, just ones that identify as trans/woman/lesbian?)

At this point, all woke-critical free speech supporters should support each other. Even if you disagree with some of their views.

Do you really want to lose your home to make what amounts to a very small political statement against mandatory jabs?

Or are you genuinely more afraid of the vaccine than homelessness (which seems insane, you must be well beyond reasonable skepticism/criticism and deep into conspiracy theories)?

IMHO, give TERFs a chance.

They're mostly 'old fashioned' (in a good way) 2nd-wave feminists, more focused on equality than 'equity', and most honest, self-consistent, and likeable than many of those who followed (and went on to lash out at gaming culture...) Yes, there's still elements of man-hate, but it tends to come from genuine experiences of violence. And they seem much more focused on serious real-world issues than policing the fictional worlds of movies, books, and games.

You don't have to agree with everything they say. You might be at opposite ends of the left-right spectrum. But the TERFs should be allies of anyone who's genuinely fighting for free speech and against the woke redefinition of and policing of language.
