Default How to correctly use pronouns

Particularly for you NY business owners who can now be fined a quarter million dollars for not using pronouns correctly, here is an instructional video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4tr4T4e0eU .

Don't post that shit, they might incite another Omar.

Funny how that video got 4 thumbs up, and 454 thumbs down. Good thing this isn't the Coliseum.

i mean .. if it was a typical man, and his boss kept using female pronouns, or vice versa, this would be a clear cut case of harassment. it's only because some people don't agree with other people determining who they are that this is an issue.

I will never use "they" to describe a single person. I'm fine with using whatever singular pronoun you want, but I will not use a plural pronoun to refer to a single person - I don't care if you prefer it.

Or we should just make up a new singular pronoun for tranimes who prefer "they."

Is this what happens when there's decades upon decades of peace?

The only cure for all this shit is a war to make people realize there's bigger things to worry about in the world.
