I have heard that Derrida has deconstructed Derrida, but I haven’t found the book, so I thought I would give it a try. Derrida believes in deconstruction. His followers have tried to deconstruct “law” for example, arguing that it is simply “white male, misogynist, racist, and homophobic crap.” I would like to argue that Derrida’s deconstruction itself is “white male, misogynist, racist, and homophobic.” Derrida is a white male who consistently takes a fascist pig analytic approach to reality which rejects body, spirit, relationality, freedom, autonomy, and other wonderful values. Who could possibly be bigoted enough to think that reality is simply a matter of analytic ideas. This is totally opposed to the ancient, medieval. indigenous world views.

postmodern deconstructionist view Intuition and Compassion don’t really exist. Finally, Derrida’s work is anti-gay. Gay men are supposed to be artistic, intellectual, cultural, and relational- all positive attributes. But Derrida’s deconstruction would tell us that there is no art, there is no intellect, only crap. Perhaps Gay men aren’t even homosexual. Perhaps these are different categories. Finally, it should be pointed out that some might disagree with my interpretations of “white male, misogynist, racist and homophobic.” Perhaps one should deconstruct the categories of “white male” “misogynist” “racist” and “homophobic.” Perhaps these categories too, are culturally relative crap, or perhaps even non-existant. Deconstruction is only negative, and by it’s very terms cannot support any positive statements.
