There's an issue with saying things like this though, post-modernism isn't a single school of thought. Some of it is (not intersectionality in my opinion because it ignores material dialectics) like Baudrillard, who added sign value to use and exchange value, some of it isn't.
Is anti-idpol marxism a postmodernist take?

I know what social construction means. If gender is social constructed, how can someone be transgender?
Lucas Phillips
If gender is socially constructed then it isn't an innate characteristic
If it isn't an innnate characteristic, then how can someone be born into the wrong body?
Luke Reyes
wrong is a social construct

I think that there's a difference between dysphoria which is a medical phenomenon that exists whether or not gender is a social construct, and not conforming to the traditional gender spectrum, which often implies that gender is in fact innate. I would argue that validating the identity of those with dysphoria does not contradict the notion of gender as a social construct, as their condition has a biological basis, while validating the second group would come into conflict with that belief.
Isaiah Johnson
What is and isn't classified as a medical phenomenon is also a societal determination. Neither the biological nor medical exist in a categorical pure land. They exist here and now, with us, and are therefore too constructions of this society.
That isn't to say, however, they have no basis in material reality; it is to say that this material reality is purposed by ideology, technical knowledge (insofar as it's separate from ideology), and our technological capabilities.
That would contradict gender being a social construct as directly as possible, supposing that the identification with the alternative arises solely from biology. One is judging oneself to be the other gender based on that internal identity at odds with the outward sex.
Matthew Cook
I would argue that dysphoria could have a basis in sex, which is not a construct, rather than gender (ie. someone experiences dysphoria due to being unhappy with their assigned sex rather than assigned gender). I would say that trans people are subject to the societal pressures of gender roles just as much and probably much more so than cis people, so being uncomfortable with assigned sex is therefore closely associated with being uncomfortable with assigned gender, but I think what defines dysphoria from a material perspective would be the rejection of one's birth sex rather than gender.
Also I believe there is at least some evidence of dysphoria having a material basis. I think the science is still very new however, so I'm not sure if there is a generally accepted consensus.

If class is a metaphysical force outside of you that implies on the opposite end of the dialectic bourgeoisie isn't apart of porky. They're guiltless and anyone practicing capitalism is completely innocent, it was an immeasurable metaphysical force. You are just being prejudice against innocent people caught up in a system.
You have made class consciousness impossible without transmuting it into an identity to internalize it and have lost the moral justification for any type of revolution or even anti-capitalist laws.
This anti-idpol nonsense is a poison pill to save face, but it will cost you dearly in the long run.
