I actually think Judith Butler might believe it, but it's equally or more likely that she's just a grifter. Camille Paglia has accused her of as much and she has a pretty good BS detector. In addition to Judith: a lot of autistic people, whose reasoning capabilities are top notch but who operate from faulty first premises.

People in the above group amount to a tiny minority, though. The rest, those who go along with it, are narcissists, useful idiots or normal people who are afraid. Great post.
