very insightful thanks. the guy who just got permabanned for being a transphobic shithead was surely misunderstood and channelling losurdo. no investigation no right to speak!

Oh I didn’t check what he was saying in other threads but and I haven’t read the book yet but based on what Rockhille was saying on his interview about the book by Losurdo was very much a fuck theory guy.

look Losurdo was cool and all but vaguely using him (without dropping any quotes or even explaining your position) to back up a user who is now permabanned for transphobia dismissing a great queer theorist like Feinberg as "western academic circle jerk" is like so far beyond square hole round peg I don't know how you ever thought it was a good thing to post.

Who am I backing up exactly I’m confused ?

[–] imogen_underscore@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

in the comment you replied to saying "that was lodurdos point" I am quoting the OP of this thread who today necro'd a year old bookclub thread about Feinberg to post that transphobic shit. they are now banned from the website. fair enough if you had no idea of context but I had already posted a reply explaining it.

Ok. Well how am I meant to know all of OPs posts? And also isn’t he saying he supports trans people in that post? once again I’m confused.

[–] imogen_underscore@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

again, dismissing a seminal queer and trans theorist like Feinberg as "western academic circle jerking" is transphobic. it's one step from "bourgeois decadence". reeks of class reductionism and just general cismale ignorance and unwillingness to learn. they also necro'd a year old thread just to say that.

Who? I still have no idea who you are talking about: I don’t know how you think I’m backing any one up. As I said I’m confused.

This is the interview I’m referring to.

i don't think you were acting in bad faith but tried to explain myself better in another reply. i understand this isn't productive to anything at this point so if you wanna leave it there it's fine by me.

[–] Sausage@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ok well the way you replied to me kinda seemed like you did assume I was acting in bad faith that’s why I asked for clarification. You also just quoted some one with no context as far as I can see so maybe make that clearer next time…I also have no idea who Feinberg is so I can’t say if I like his or her work or not…..You’re assuming I know a bunch of stuff about some random guy. As I said I haven’t had the chance to read the book yet but based off the interview which I posted lots of Losurdos criticism was aimed at the Frankfurt school in particular. Next time just add more context please.
