TC69 posted a thread asking for all users to set pronoun tags. Most users generally accept this as good practice to minimize misgendering, namely for our trans/nb comrades to make the site a more welcoming and safe community. Some users felt unduly pressured into setting them and took issue with that, some objected for opsec reasons, and a handful went mask-off with blatantly transphobic shit.
I don't see the continuing threads as productive, personally. Some users simply refuse to set them and their minds won't be imminently changed. Once setting pronouns becomes required for registration, that should clear up the issue a lot.
