Right, the whole field of feminist philosophy until the year 2018 and all the women in it were completely bereft of "common sense", thank God Kathleen Stock showed up to rescue them And I'm supposed to be the one who's condescending to women in academia

You're deliberately twisting my words because you know I'm right. She won't back down and you can't stand it.

Buddy, nobody needs to twist your words. You just said something that's very silly on its face, which is highly amusing to Arthur's followers. Seriously, you sound like a flat earther. "She was the first to speak out!!!"

Stock herself saying the most utterly self-absorbed horseshit about how her qualifications to speak on the issue simply come from being a real live woman and having skin in the game

As though almost all the other people she's condescending to and dismissing the work of aren't also, by her definition, women

(What's *actually* galling is how few trans women are directly involved in these endless debates and discussions about a topic that they have the *most* skin in the game for compared to any other group But the way the academic meatgrinder works makes this unlikely to change)

this is basically the only reason I’ve wandered into the Twitter cesspool over this, I’ve stared at what they’re talking about and looked at my life and reluctantly accepted that I’m personally more qualified to opine then like 99.99% of everyone else discussing it

I'm reminded of that (apocryphal, but I guess thematically accurate) scene in the movie Milk where Harvey Milk storms into the office, whips out a tape recorder and is all of a sudden like "Okay, on the record, who's gay?"

And everyone's just kind of nonplussed and his campaign manager (who, like everyone else in the room, is obviously gay) is like "Harvey, what -- " "Ryan Mills, 36, of San Francisco, are you or are you not a f****t" "Okay come on, Harvey, what is this about -- "

"I just had a meeting with a bunch of rich old queens telling me to take the word 'gay' out of my ads and I'm sick of it I'm sick of them using silence to divide and destroy us I'm sick of huddling on a sinking ship hoping they come for our brothers on the streets first"

"Oh come on, Harvey, don't start in on me with that shit, you were a Republican lawyer until -- " "I know what I was and I'm saying that's over NOW Starting NOW this is a publicly gay campaign with a publicly gay staff"

"Do what you want with your life, but I'm telling you you have a choice You can be in the closet or you can be on my team But after today, you can't be in both" *everyone in the room shuffles uncomfortably*

(I am not endorsing the fictionalized Milk's words or actions here but in the context of what seemed to be a hopeless war against Anita Bryant's hate campaign you can see what was motivating him in this moment)
