The loonery that is going on in the United States is really getting out of hand. This article does contain some good news as a Professor of Education has managed to keep her job despite stating the ‘heretical’ fact that human beings are sexually dimorphic species.
Let that one sink in a bit as you contemplate your stance on ‘woke politics’. Especially if you happen to believe that the woke agenda is harmless or an overblown threat to society as you know it.
“University of Southern Maine officials announced Monday they would not replace a professor who allegedly told her class that only two biological sexes exist, despite demands for her removal from the majority of her class, Bangor Daily News reported Monday.
Education professor Christy Hammer and a single student allegedly said “they believed only male and female biological sexes exist” during a September 7 required class in the university’s Portland campus’ Extended Teacher Education Program for public teacher certification, according to the news outlet.”
Yes, this actual occurrence. You can get in trouble with the faux-progressive set for stating the basic facts of the reality we all share.
“A free-for-all discussion erupted over both social gender and biological sex identifications…the rest of the class maintained both biological sexes and social genders are on a spectrum,” according to the paper. The discussion continued to the next class on September 14, during which “nearly two dozen students walked out in protest,” according to a September 29 article in the Bangor Daily News.”
Pretty much par for the course when dealing with gender ideologues because their arguments are mostly fatuous hyperbolic emotive bafflegab and therefore they can’t debate – instead they activate their inner activist and PROTEST. That is one of the best parts of this ideology – actions are much more important that any sort of grounding in the material reality we all share.
“Following that episode, a “majority of the class” sent a letter to the Department of Education and Human Development “asking for a restorative justice meeting with Hammer,” according to the October 3 article.
During the meeting, the student who had maintained the two-sex distinction repeatedly apologized. But Hammer stayed firm, “saying non-binary biological sex designations are merely variations on male and female,” according to the September 29 article.
Students declared Hammer’s remarks “inaccurate and transphobic,” according to the news outlet.”
With no arguments moored in reality, the only option is to silence the heretic, in this case an Education Prof for her crime of stating biological fact. Thought crime is officially a thing, especially in Universities apparently.
Take a second and reflect on this if you are moored to reality and a free thinker you will eventually be in this situation. The faux-progressive mob will call for your excommunication – what will you do? To maintain your integrity, the very minimum you can do is not replicate the lie.
“You can resolve to live your life with integrity. Let your credo be this: Let the lie come into the world, let it even triumph. But not through me.”
“We don’t want to go back to the classroom with Christy Hammer,” student Michael Lombardi told the paper.
The school responded this week by declaring that it will not replace Hammer, but will make an “alternative, identical class available,” according to the Oct. 3 story.
“We have developed an alternative plan for this class and will be opening a new section of this course for those students who would like to move,” university spokesperson Gina Marie Guadagnino told the Bangor Daily News. “The original section taught by professor Hammer will continue for any student who wishes to remain in that class.”
Can you imagine this? Making a whole new section with a professor that won’t challenge the beliefs of students? What are Universities for if not for challenging ones beliefs? What kind of funhouse reality are we in right now? Student feelings are not more important the facts of the matter, especially when it comes to education. Do we really want ideologues who crumble and cry and then burn the heretic at the first sign of opposition teaching our children?
This is just one example of the faux-progressive movement tearing at the fabric of our society. Actual progressive people and those who care about the next generation have duty to speak out against this pernicious ideology.
Don’t look at me like that my Christian friends, I didn’t go and choose a method of execution/torture to be my holy symbol. :>
Grab the link to the paper and follow along. Learn about where all this queer bullshite comes from and what the theory is really about in their words.
People have very rapidly realized, whether in Groomer Schools, marketing, or so many other corners of society that we’ve been suckered into supporting Queer Theory under the banner of a gay and lesbian civil rights movement. We’ve also figured out very quickly that Queer Theory is a branch of Identity Marxism: Queer Marxism, which takes “normalcy” as its special form of bourgeois property to abolish through (Queer) class struggle. Where, though, did Queer Theory come from? It is relatively widely accepted that the first real Queer Theory paper is Gayle Rubin’s 1984 essay “Thinking Sex,” which calls for a new radical politics of sexuality. To help people understand what Queer Theory is and always has been about, James Lindsay proudly hosts a three-part New Discourses Podcast series reading through “Thinking Sex” in full and offering his commentary on it. In this first part, we learn that Queer Theory from its very beginnings is profoundly interested in both child pornography and pedophilia. It’s almost shocking to hear. Join James to understand Queer Theory from its very origins.
Gayle Rubin’s shocking 1984 essay “Thinking Sex.” In this episode, he continues with a second part of Rubin’s essay in which it becomes clear that Queer Theory is all about breaking down all boundaries and categories between acceptable and unacceptable sexual behavior using explicitly Marxist-style analysis (Queer Theory is Queer Marxism).
The Queer Subversion of Feminism: Gayle Rubin’s “Thinking Sex” Part 3
In the previous two episodes of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads through the first two thirds of Gayle Rubin’s shocking 1984 essay, “Thinking Sex,” widely regarded as the first essay in Queer Theory. In it, as Rubin’s subtitle indicates, “Notes for a Radical Theory of the Politics of Sexuality,” she takes feminism (especially sex-negative radical feminism) to task for being insufficiently radical as a politics of sexuality. In fact, she accuses it (not entirely wrongly) of being resoundingly conservative with regard to sex and sexuality. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James walks you through this most tedious portion of the essay where the seeds of subverting feminism itself are planted. Within just a couple of decades from this point, the Queer Marxist movement will have used Rubin’s call for a “radical theory of the politics of sexuality” to completely undermine the women’s movement and basically kill it and the category of “woman” itself. Join him to understand how it started.
I can remember back when the notion that gender, being sex stereotypes were something to be avoided or at least treated skeptically. The recent transgender ideology throws these notions out and fully embraces the toxicity that comes with gendered stereotypes.
