Not trans, though, which is the wordplay here

I understand what you mean, just didn't know if they specifically meant the distiction of "trans" women or "cis" women or just women overall.

As far as I'm concerned, people are who they say they are and who they want to be, and I think that is awesome!

Hopefully the world can set aside their difference and accept that people are who they are, and that we are the masters of our own destiny. A lot of people get the notion that people who transition are weak, but I cannot disagree with that more. It is incredibly hard to break free from the social bubble that the world creates from you and put it into your own fingers.

There’s a trans flag right smack in the middle of the image, which further underlines the kind of trans it is referring to.

Where exactly do you see cis women fitting into a meme about soldiers transitioning and using the trans flag as their sigil?

You're kind of missing the point of what I'm saying but that is okay!

I'm saying that Russia has deployed cis female forces before, the idea of deploying trans female forces is a similar concept. I'm simply saying that there is no difference between cis and trans females.
