@jduffyrice I assume that you and Andrew are in agreement that white people should not identify as that word, which is why I don't understand why him expressing that, even in service of an argument you find flawed, is racist. — PolitiTweet.org

@jduffyrice As far as I can tell,Andrew is not saying straight people should never utter the word queer, he is objecting to a straight person *identifying as* queer. I personally do not care about that, but neither do I think it's my place to tell gay people their objection is illegitimate — PolitiTweet.org

@jduffyrice I think his issue is inseparable from the prior status of queer as a slur and his belief about what it's reclamation means for whom. But I guess we'd have to ask him to be sure. — PolitiTweet.org
