Judith Butler, philosopher, "godmother of queer theory"

Her opening response to the question id pol good or bad is @15'00". From 1:14'04"-1:19'31" she responds to Greenwald. From 1:39'44" -1:46'38" she responds to Greenwald and West and then there is an exchange among her, West, and the moderator (Greenwald is on remote.) From @2:00'06"-2:04'18", she is answering a question about vaccine mandates (this is during the pandemic), but the stuff about our porosity is at the heart of her gender theory. Porosity with others breeds ever-changing performativity of gender, from what I gather.

Judith Butler did not invent the word 'performativity' but it is her fault that we go around saying it. She would also prefer to be called they/them but will accept she/her. I am having trouble finding a younger video so type her from this one for now, please. You can just watch the four sections I noted.
