Can speech also be considered a "text" in critical theory? In post-structuralist analysis, doesn't that mean SJWs' problem with racism and homophobia lies within themselves?

I should clarify, speech like "faggot" or "nigger"
>>7992986
Can you clarify further for plebs like me who don't know what you're talking about
>>7992986
Yes. They consider everything a "text". But who cares? They're full of shit.
>>7992986
yes, basically all things are texts if "read"
yes, but if i am being a prick while saying "nigger" then i clearly intend to use it to cause problems. it's not straight solipsistic; one can attempt to enforce their readings on others. so, at base, yes, but it's sophistic bullshit to think that wins you an argument
it's a "stop hitting yourself" level of reasoning you seem to be aiming at here
