yeah debates over Neo-pronouns are always a really tedious Anglo-centric thing. it's not something that the majority of trans people worldwide are even able to care about
If you don't use someone's preferred neopronouns you are LITERALLY committing genocide against trans people. That's right, not using the preferred neopronouns is as grave a sin against humanity as any famine, plague, or murderous policy.
Just for clarity, are you serious (or is this a joke)?
They are neither being sincere nor joking. They're creating a strawman through hyperbole to suggest that anyone who cares about pronouns is deranged. In reality, usually when someone gets upset about pronouns it is not because their neos weren't used, it was from being deliberately misgendered as an attack on them despite knowing the preferred he/she/they pronouns.
The person used "literally" so even if it were serious then it can still be completely ignored as per the "litchally" policy.
Same for anyone who says "action the ask to reduce the spend", although those poseurs are hunted anytime they leave the car lot.
