Shawn,
   Sorry I have annoyed you.  I'm a bit surprized. 
I'm not saying you aren't critical of bad
poststructuralism. Obviously you are, especially of
the simplistic attacks on "essentialism", and that I
wholeheartedly support.  My point, again, was a little
more targeted than that.  But perhaps I misunderstood
some of your comments.  Sorry for that.  When you
said:
"And, honestly, the "post-structuralist identity
politics" is such an obvious, self-contradictory botch
that we should all probablly know better, or just drop
the pretense of being critical."
 I thought you meant that it wasn't even worth being
critical of because it was such a bad use of
poststructuralism.  My response was that where I was
it is the main use of poststructuralism, so being
critical of it is very useful to me.  Wasn't trying to
suggest that you were acritical in general, just that
we seemed to have different priorities on this topic.
    I'm going to drop my other points as I don't need
another contentious debate on the internet now that
gets people annoyed with me.
  best,
     sasha
