@HeerJeet But that’s exactly my point. If you spend any time in NA philosophy departments, you can feel the disdain for “theory” - same as UK. An idea being associated with Butler would be a significant detriment to it. And yet, no major tradition of TERFism there. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@HeerJeet I don’t buy this at all. North American philosophy departments are dominated by Anglo-American analytic approaches yet don’t produce UK style “gender critical” nonsense at nearly the same level. — PolitiTweet.org

@grouchybagels i should have just asked you this directly, you would know the credible answers here — PolitiTweet.org

I don't know the answer to this question! Am also curious about Ireland https://t.co/660wT0dzgz — PolitiTweet.org

@zackbeauchamp Not sure they are the outliers. Don't Australia and New Zealand have similar dynamics as the UK?

It's not that there isn't transphobia in North America, of course. It's just more typically associated with political conservatism rather than the intellectual and cultural establishment. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
I am continually perplexed by the Anglophone divergence on transphobia. Why is there so much more TERF representation in the UK elite than in their US and Canadian peers? — PolitiTweet.org

I'm not subtweeting anyone or anything here, I just genuinely really like reflective equilibrium. Rawls was good. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
"Reflective equilibrium" is a kind of moral reasoning based on identifying contradictions in one's belief system, adjusting beliefs to resolve them, looking for new contradictions, and continuing until you've resolved the internal tension. I wish more people did this in politics. — PolitiTweet.org

@janetrosenbaum i think it's sort of bifurcated between the people doing more traditional debate and performance/project arguments, with awkward theory debates when they meet — PolitiTweet.org

A fair amount actually, though admittedly that was less through coursework than policy debate (which also taught me about nuclear weapons and Time Cube) https://t.co/SuSPu0fV98 — PolitiTweet.org

I mean, even in *relatively recent Canadian history,* Pierre Trudeau's actions during the October Crisis were far more threatening to civil liberties than anything his son did. — PolitiTweet.org

Do all the professional "anti-woke" types sign a pledge to abuse and ignore the historical record? — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
Ah yes, Justin Trudeau's handling of the Ottawa trucker protest is a greater abuse of power than Japanese internment, Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus, the various Red Scares, and <insert colonial abuses of European powers here> https://t.co/JR9A5rqSC1 — PolitiTweet.org

My dad was a philosophy professor and, when I was little, he taught me syllogisms from Plato’s Republic at bedtime. I think that’s where it started — PolitiTweet.org

NATO military assistance is playing an important role in the war. Putin could do something about it. He won't because he's *deterred* — which is just a fancy way of saying he's scared. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
For people who say things like "America needs to make Vladimir Putin scared of us," ask yourself: Why do you think Russia hasn't struck the NATO depots in Poland housing all the advanced weaponry Ukrainians are using to kill his soldiers and foil his invasion? — PolitiTweet.org

This is such a basic and obviously correct point that the people who say otherwise are ignorant or pretending to be — PolitiTweet.org

Sometimes I think the American foreign policy commentariat is a conspiracy to prove J. Ann Tickner and Cynthia Enloe right — PolitiTweet.org

Is it a coincidence that American Old White Guys In Foreign Policy keep describing war in terms of "impotence" and "muscularity"?
