Thank you. Mexico, for standing up for truth snd integrity. We here in America wish many of our corporate leaders could find the decency and courage to do the same.

The Atlantic article was...hahahaha.

Btw. Riverdale Country is crazy expensive. I thought it was misleading to say it is in the Bronx. I mean. It is. But it may as well be UES. Like these are wealthy kids, which means the parents have time for this nonsense

Leor is one of very few people critical of gender-identity ideology who really understands the contradictions within it. He understands queer theory enough to see how it actually clashes with many of the precepts of the current trans rights movement. For instance, "trans women are women" assumes a kind of stable, authentic inner identity that runs directly counter to Judith Butler's ideas in Gender Trouble. As a lefty, I wish he were not so immersed in conservative institutions - not because I …

I just listened to the GAWL episode and was going to write pretty much everything that you already did (thanks!). I would just add: Leor eschews the term "gender ideology" precisely because it isn't just one belief system, including as it does both the postmodernist Butlerites and the gendered-soul people.
