That's fine. I'm not queer. What a relief!

If one has to do something(like wear a mask?..) to be "queer", then it's not an intrinsic trait.

Most people in my country wore masks, including most straight people. In fact, I stopped wearing them as soon as the mandate was lifted back in March last year. In fact, I was against mask mandates from the beginning. Meanwhile, my heterosexual parents complained about people not wearing masks and my heterosexual brother confronted people who didn’t wear them. I guess that means the gay fella in the family is the only one who isn’t queer.

Gay person: don't call me queer, I still see it as a slur against people like me

TRAs: don't be a pussy, queer has been reclaimed, get with the times

also TRAs: we've decided to confiscate the word queer from you unless you have the right politics

The process of recording this video, and so many like it, is so bizarre.

She is alone in her room, basically looking into a surrogate mirror (I'm sure she is watching herself on the phone) and chastising her reflection for its moral failings while pretending it is someone else.

It's a surreal age, the computer age. So much potential for improvement to society and the human experience, but this is the kind of stuff we get too. Lonely, angry people broadcasting their screams into the void for posterity.

she is staring into the soul of all of us unrepentant non queer homosexuals.

She is like SCP-96. Anyone who gazes upon her face will become psychically linked to her, and she will then make every effort to reach your location. Instead of tearing you limb from limb and devouring you, she will simply begin reciting Judith Butler to you, not letting you leave your home until you starve to death.

I think we'd all agree that being torn limb from limb and devoured sounds preferable.

The comments on the reddit are interesting but if you just want to see the crazy video:

Kooky-View8426 -1 points 11 hours ago "people who play it safe".... by establishing the entire community all on their own? By you making yourself a benefactor of their sacrifices and labour? Which is why you need historical revisionism to pretend a homeless drug addict "threw the 1st brick" when there was no brick? Or the decades long gay civil rights movement which took billions of dollars and leveraging of political power to make?

Queer theory was an attempt, by gays, and you keep saying "cis", not understanding you're perpetuating a false binary, to understand systems of homophobia. It came from focault and was contributed to by Judith Butler. There you go again with the historical revisionism. So Focault created the 50,000 tonnes of the foundations and conceived of the idea, yet you found some "trans" person who contributed a grain of sand and suddenly it's been "modified" and not appropriated, misused, misinterpreted to the point where it's been brought into disrepute by the very same people who complain about "cis gays"?

If this happens to be someone on this board, know that I love you and you are my hero. lol

All said, I actually don't mind this chick's ( or is her emaciated frame supposed to make us think 'masculine' and she's a really a man, like Elliot Page? ) whole outlook on this. I am 100% down with not being called queer because I don't wear a mask, and likely don't agree with 90% of her own beliefs. I have no problem with her removing me from the 'queer culture' so long as her exclusionary logic extends to the entirety of the LGB community. In fact, that's the whole purpose of this entire board: a divorce between the LGB and Trans communities.

Finally, we find common ground.

That’s fine with me. I reject queer politics. In fact, the day before my country lifted its mask mandate was the last day I wore a mask.

"NVM now I realize you're just a <whatever>" has to be the most depressingly impotent rhetorical tactic ever used. Like, sometimes I get a song stuck in my head... these fuckers just have sad trombones on loop in their heads.
