  • Others have addressed some of your other points, but

    would you mind inventing a new word either for gender-neutral third-person singular pronoun, or one for what “they” mean to foreign English speakers

    We actually have that. Xe / Xem / Xyrs. It isn’t very widely used though, and is generally considered a neo pronoun.

    Honestly I don’t really expect it to get mainstream use anytime soon, in part because people are already accused to the singular They / Them / Theirs (except for when a nonbinary person asks to be refered to as such).















  • Not to mention: a lot of people don’t really understand how technology works. They just use the app without even thinking where that data goes. Like yeah, it would probably behoove those people to educate themselves on the technology they’re using, but I certainly don’t want them to face unjust legal repercussions just because Republicans hate anyone with a vagina.



  • Ofcourse they don’t care about citizens, or protecting minorities. But they’re the only other people to vote for. Not voting is just giving power to Republicans. Voting is the bare fucking minimum.

    If we want more than two parties. If we want a single fucking party that represents citizens we aren’t going to get that peacefully. Unfortunately Republicans have full control and have clearly telegraphed that they’re going to rip the few shreds of democracy we have left apart. All we really have left is bloody revolution.
