If you’ve ever read the tripe TERFs write at length you will notice that they very often go off about how all the evils plaguing the true Female Homosexual community are derived from “Queer Theory” and usually when you read this you will be confused, since it usually entails accusations that trans women were somehow created or brought into acceptance by this so-called Queer Theory, yet usually you’ll find that there’s no causal link whatsoever provided between the niche (and often not very good) academic field of queer theory and, well, whatever trans activist evils TERFs are complaining about this day. Earlier today I even had the misfortune of seeing a TERF lament how Queer Theory has turned the LGB community into a trans cult and this will all be swept away when Gamers True Homosexuals Rise Up.

At this point I think it’s better to assume that the phrase “Queer Theory” in TERF lingo is an empty signifier meant to reference some manner of grand academic conspiracy to destroy our harmonious society by means of brainwashing the youth, without ever actually addressing what the core tenets of this theory even are. In essence Queer Theory in TERF lingo means exactly the same as “Cultural Marxism” does for fascists, or “Postmodern Neo-Marxism” does for Jordan Memerson… so I would once again like to extend my congratulations to Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists for being indistinguishable in method from the alt-right.
