It's interesting how enduring these sorts of contagion narratives are in anti-LGBTQ commentary. web.archive.org/web/20211101...

Eliminationist rhetoric is fine so long as you're not rude about it apparently. bsky.app/profile/ostr...

"... from society's heights" He says that as though those at "society's heights" aren't largely in agreement with him.

Counterpoint: If you use these tools enough *and know enough about the subject matter* you’ll find that they are definitely parroting their training sets and have no actual thought or ideas of what they’re causing to occur

It turns out that scolding voters, especially voters within minority communities who most need our solidarity and care right now, is far easier for them than demanding better of the politicians they insist those voters vote for.

I love the idea that *now* normative concerns are bringing to bear on "methods decisions." *Now*, and not in the past that Rubin apparently longs for, where those making "methods decisions" often did so without considering them.

Teaching Bruno Latour tomorrow and this will come in very handy. The work of maintaining the institutions of knowledge is never-ending

Just a thread of people with no sense of solidarity or allyship, just ‘positive vibes’. It’s disgusting and infuriating and depressing to see how many people simply do not give a shit about others

“Sorry son, no, mommy can’t get you any painkillers, she’s tweeting about how this whole experience with your broken knee has given her a fresh perspective on gender clinics. What’s a ‘non-sequitur’? Sounds postmodern and gender-adjacent, what are they teaching you at that school?”

the arc of centrism bends towards right-wing nationalist monoculture. or it would bend that way, if it had started anywhere else

These guys always write in a way where they have to let readers know that they are Rational, Objective, Truth Seekers. It reeks of insecurity.

I agree that it's different to the other pieces in the thread, which are examples of those tropes being expressed, rather than being described and then critiqued.

Felix @ostrasyn.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Oh, I see what you mean. I think it might have been included because it references specific tropes, even though it does so with a view to examining them critically. In that regard it's similar to this piece, which also acknowledges and responds to a particular trope (bsky.app/profile/ostr...).
