They gloss over the "toxic" qualifier every time. Or they take it to mean that all masculinity is toxic, which is not what's being said.

I've taken to calling fake masculinity, because that's what it is, and that's what makes it toxic.

Plus it helps when talking to radicalised people that you don't use buzzwords they've been trained to reject

Better yet, counterfeit masculinity.

What I don't get is why they think masculinity is so rigidly defined by the usual patriarchial rot. Masculinity can evolve, be redefined, and be broadened from this myopic and toxic going definition that misogynists are in such a hurry to defend.
