      I would not call Finkelstein some Ivory tower academic. His academic career has been destroyed because of his fierce support for Palestinian rights.

        Yeah, listening to this now and he's actually making the ivory tower argument in the other direction. He's talking about basically being one of the only people in left academia/media from a poor background(specifically calling out Amy Goodman for her and all of her siblings apparently going to harvard) I can see why Brace seems to relate to him a lot.

      Nobody's ever said that, but that's the strawman that transphobes like to argue against because it makes them seem like the reasonable ones.

        Honestly what Finkelstein said isn't that awful; it's just based on misunderstanding. When I read the title of the post I thought he was gonna go on some screed about trans people being monsters or something.

    Sorry y'all, Norman's done more work for the oppressed masses in his lifetime than the total combined efforts of everyone on this website, and he's had literal assassination attempts made on him. He can afford to have an oopsie.
