    I thought the adults were back in charge. Adults don't concern themselves with crap like this. All this to avoid offending someone. Who cares. Nothing happens when you're offended.

    Personally, I just don't get the pronoun thing. But I also don't understand why it threatens some people. What do I care if someone wants to be called zir, ze, zirs or dumbass?

    The issue is being forced to refer to them by their preferred pronoun. Not to mention actual science.

    Who is "FORCING" people to refer to others by their preferred pronoun? Is there some law somewhere? Or is it just social pressure?


    There is social pressure for people to refer to me a "sir". Yet one is upset about that.

    No laws but they have been proposed. It's mostly individuals. The left doesn't understand that coercion is not an effective way to get people on their side. If a man identifies as a woman I have no problem with that and would address as such because I am not a mean person. But do not demand I do so and do not insist a biological male can miraculously become a biological female. Do not force your preferences on me. That's it.

    They consider it violence if you use the wrong pronoun.
    They call it violence because they want the US to make it a crime.

    This is how whacked out your party is.

    In Canada you can actually be arrested for this.

    I only care when I'm expected to play make believe and validate delusions. Why is your party so into this? We all know you're a hack but don't you have limits? Goddamn.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
