This is essentially a take-down of Contrapoints' dreadful "Terfs" video, but he makes a number of interesting points. I also like the term "self identity essentialists".

I thought it may cheer people to see that an intelligent young man UNDERSTANDS.

(Video is in four parts .)

Thank you Sunset, he made some really interesting points. This is another good resource to draw on for debating this topic.

His Judith Butler video made me laugh, as he has a genuine "Oh wow, she's actually stupid" moment as he's reading her interview.

He did a previous critique of Contra a while back.

IIRC (and I’m talking from memory) it’s interesting that he starts out with ‘preferred pronouns’ (explaining his decision) and then in part 2 concedes that his previous rationale for doing so doesn’t actually hold up to scrutiny, but using sex based pronouns would likely result in the video being deleted.

The Judith Butler one is great, although not quite as great as this one:

That was great. I'm pleased to see young people speaking out and making intelligent arguments. Gives me hope.
