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

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...
