Discussing Trans Rights and Rhetoric
From Isn't It Queer
Jonny and Heather discuss Heather's new novel, iGoodbye Hello/i, an unconventional romance that begins with grief at a funeral. In the back half of the show, they examine new turns in the anti-trans rhetoric of TERFs and transphobes, turns meant to be rebuttals to arguments for trans righs. They offer rebuttals to the rebuttals and note the pervasive function of caricature as a tool of scapegoating embedded in all the antitrans rhetoric.
