Bret Weinstein seems like a reasonable enough guy that I'm surprised he was ever onboard with queer theory,

The post title; I think they must have meant the Evergreen college. Not Brett Weinstein, I've watched quite a few of his podcasts, him and queer theory are antithetical.

I've read a bunch of queer theory. There's some good tidbits in there, but it relies on an overreach of social constructionism and its activism ends up being profoundly illiberal.

What did I see on twitter yesterday? "The two groups of people who think homosexuality is a social construct are religious conservatives and queer theorists."

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you.
