The terf concept of feminism basically seems to be incredibly gender-essentialist but saying that it is a good thing. That women are uniquely, immutably physically and spiritually different from men and that many things that I think most of us would conceive of as fuckups of society are in fact hard coded into a rigid binary conception of gender and you can neatly categorize everyone on the earth into one or the other, based theoretically on a bunch of crap about chromosomes or anatomy but ultimately on intuition and their compulsive need for the world to be so explicable.

Which, I mean I'm sure there have historically been feminists who thought like that but they're far less compelling than the ones who believe in things like society and performance and poo poo, and who took a look at biology and decided it was tyranny that humans should be liberated from.

The terf conception also dovetails (not, I think, coincidentally) very well with the far right fundie sales pitch about how god has a plan for women and wouldn't you know it it's being a tradwife. Except you just lean into how magical that is and how spiritually fulfilling it is and how you know society really needs balance between the genders which means women have to be womanly and men have to be manly and jesus christ just shoot me.

I guess it's not surprising that it has appeal given that it's really just dressing up old and lovely ideas in language that makes them sound cooler in a modern progressive context, but it still makes me nauseous.

I remain fascinated by what I've read of second wave feminism. It's full of "women are defined by more than anatomy" but it's really is incredible how often those exact same people quickly resort to "oh but actually it does define us" in the interest of keeping the transes out of their woman club.

It's just incredible that anyone thinks he is insightful or a good communicator. I knew a guy a few years back who, despite normally being fine, had gone down the Jorp rabbit hole. Wonder if he's made it out. I had a few arguments with him about it. "have you actually read his books?" No I loving haven't. Christ.

Half his own fans haven't either and will not believe you when you quote the books verbatim with poo poo like the feminine chaos dragon

The jorp thread in gbs was fun. Had one guy come in who tried to communicate by quoting random blocks of philosophers, which is apparently normal somewhere. Literally just summoning Zizek like a Pokemon and telling him to use Critique.

You can say correct words without actually being right, if, for example, your contention is that conversion therapy is cool and dand rather than that the bill is not actually going to do anything.

Varg stabbed him 23 times, 16 of which were in the back, so I think it's pretty clearly murder. Necrobutcher, the bassist from Mayhem, believes Varg but also said that he had been planning to kill Euronymous.

it's so loving weird you keep running in to explain how actually we do have to hand it to overt fascists, do you genuinely think Peterson's stance was 'actually this doesn't go far enough to fight conversion therapy'?

no. but calling it moral grandstanding is absolutely correct because it was made very repeatedly clear over the two years of that bill's tortured development that the Liberals were not actually interested in protecting queer Canadians and just wanted good press. even the final press conference was just "we're doing this and everyone else is WRONG for not liking it." it was campaign plank fluff and sadly nothing more.

e: and saying "hey you're wrong this person responded about their discord server membership" is a far cry from handing it to them. jorp's the stopped clock. chill.

great, Jorp doesn't give a single iota of a poo poo about queer Canadians either so I don't see why it means anything that in his constant rejection and opposition to any effort to protect LGBTQ+ people he happened to hit one bill that was useless.

Like, him calling it 'grandstanding' wasn't because he read the bill and came to the same conclusion, it was because he saw 'ban conversion therapy' and went 'oh no, but that means less queer people being abused!!!!!' and then took a handful of benzos or whatever he does now

you seem to be confused and think that jorp being correct means anything more than jorp being correct, like it's now some Actual Issue that Jorp agrees. he's correct, that's it. That's all I said, not that his statement actually means anything.

There's no way that Jorp is correct on purpose. He considers the idea that LBGTQ+ people need any sort of legal protections or recognition at all to be 'moral grandstanding', aka 'virtue signaling'.

Pretty much yeah. He's combining his existing hate of queer people (especially trans folks) with hating on the Liberal government. Don't forget that Jorp's university (UofToronto) was THE global headquarters for conversion therapy on trans folks for decades.
