Derrick Jensen is terrific on philosophy and environment issues.

He was abused as a child.

I don't buy into these deviancy links. Just because someone does A leads to B leads to C. Being gay doesn't mean you take it in the ass (many do), much less are a pedo (some are, straight too).

By that logic anyone who kisses leads to sex leads to rape leads to murder. All kissers are murderers.

Anyone who smokes leads to drinking leads to alcoholism leads to drug abuse leads to overdosing. All smokers will overdose.

EDIT: I couldn't watch in my browser so I downloaded it and finally got around to watching it. I'd seen this before in the full video. It seems clear to me but worth repeating that Derrick Jensen is NOT in favour of supporting pedophilia in this 5:54 queer theory clip from a larger conversation. I still don't get queer theory.

I think if you listen to TRA rhetoric it can sort of slippery slope to pedophilia. I don't think trans people are pedos uniformly per se, but if you say that a child can make their own decisions re: hormones and transitioning at the age of 7, then why not be able to consent also? Allowing young children to decide life changing, long lasting things at that age is a super bad idea. I'm not a doctor but personally I think it is probably a bad idea to do the Jazz Jennings thing where she went through the opposite sex puberty after taking hormone blockers. I think for developmental reasons its probably much better to go through the puberty of your own sex (and then transition if you want) but there is no data on this.

While all kids mature at different rates, IMO, there should be a hard line, say 16 or 18 whereon the kid can drink, sex, military, drive, etc - a universal step into adulthood. Certainly not all kids will be smart or mature (just like any age), but they will be potentially functional solo. Up to that point they should be protected intact as they are, whatever that may be, by their family, community, and the state.

I'm ok with 18 being the age for everything (including drinking alcohol, that the age is 21 seems stupid to me). I think if you can sign up for the military you should be able to rent a car and drink, too.

IMO the drinking age is stupid. North America has outsourced the jobs of the parent to the state.

You are confusing queer people with queer theory, two complete different things.

[–]JasonCarswell 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

I guess I am.

Can you please explain and/or point me to some clear and short content, preferably a YouTube vid or few or a short article?

Queer theory is actually homophobic and transphobic because is says there is no innate sexuality or gender, everything is performative. So gay people chose to be gay, trans people chose to be trans, women chose to be weaker than men and get raped, etc. However a lot of gay and trans people like it because it turns them into heroes of the glorious revolution without them having to do anything.

Thanks. I'll have to read that again to make it stick. In a nutshell: it seems like a fancy fantasy to make excuses for bullshit.

There are plenty of people that are trans talking about queer theory. Many also call themselves Marxists. Many are also harassing women online with death threats because lesbians are turning them down and they harass anyone that disagree with these narratives. BTW, transphobia is a dumb shaming word. Still using the same guidelines huh... Straight from the playbook...
