    look Losurdo was cool and all but vaguely using him (without dropping any quotes or even explaining your position) to back up a user who is now permabanned for transphobia dismissing a great queer theorist like Feinberg as “western academic circle jerk” is like so far beyond square hole round peg I don’t know how you ever thought it was a good thing to post.

        in the comment you replied to saying “that was lodurdos point” I am quoting the OP of this thread who today necro’d a year old bookclub thread about Feinberg to post that transphobic shit. they are now banned from the website. fair enough if you had no idea of context but I had already posted a reply explaining it.

          Ok. Well how am I meant to know all of OPs posts? And also isn’t he saying he supports trans people in that post? once again I’m confused.

            again, dismissing a seminal queer and trans theorist like Feinberg as “western academic circle jerking” is transphobic. it’s one step from “bourgeois decadence”. reeks of class reductionism and just general cismale ignorance and unwillingness to learn. they also necro’d a year old thread just to say that.
