Groomers 2

Intro

Grooming mentality
Destabilizing identity in a politically actionable away
Lead to transhumanism in the sense of Donnah Harroway's conception of a genderless, raceless, collectivist cyborg manufactured and programmed to have particular affinities which replace identities. Thus allowing a cohesive, political affinity which applies universally to all entities.

WEF

Use hi-tech medicine and infrastructure to plug humans into a semi-digital world

Interrogating Innocence (2018 Julie C Garland)

Exclusionary practice

Queer Futurity and Childhood Innocence

Assuming asexuality and proto-heterosexuality yield contradictions
Emphasize sexuality within children's education
Asexual children (presexual) is heteronormative thinking
Counter this by emphasizing sexuality

Queer Childhood

Eve Sedgwick

Bringing up your kids gay at odds with childhood innocence
Suggests that colonialism and slavery have corrupted our theories about childhood development
Our ideas about childhood innocence are interwoven with white privilege i.e. Childhood innocence is racial innocence and naivety, which demonstrates one's privilege

Queer Futurity 1

References Eve's work as initiating consideration of childhood as a site of heteronormative intervention
Cisheteronormativity is their bourgeois property or white privilege
Assumes that heterosexuality is being artificially impressed upon the children to indoctrinate them (Iron Law of Woke Projection)

Standard M.O.

Conflate normativity with morality
The more unique and distant an identity is from normal, the greater the capacity for moral judgment
Assumes variation is morally relevant

Limitations

Denies broad acceptance of homosexuality
Marcusian lamentation that acceptance nullifies propensity for change
Empowered by the fuel of catastrophisized minorities who demand revolution
Target children to have them believe that mere inauthentic acceptance has been insufficient
Exacerbate alienation as a revolutionary force "It's always open season on gay kids" - Eve Sedgwick
