It's a two way street. Remember people's pronouns when you can, don't shove them down peoples throats when they forget and definitely don't force other people to pick their pronouns unless they want to.
Not having a pronoun is gonna make people think ur a cis dude, it won't communicate "not having an identifier". if that's what how you want people to perceive of you, I'd recommend picking "none". just some friendly advice from someone who has been on the internet a long time and gotten misgendered a lot.
what if I'm undecided about my pronouns?

but can’t i just leave it blank? or is there an argument against that?
Leaving it blank is a valid option.
thanks, I don't want to put anyone out, but that would be the most comfortable for me
A bunch of comrades asked you to click a button on a website to be nice. What more motivation do you need?
A bunch of assholes demanded that people select pronouns in spite of the fact not everyone is comfortable in the same manner with that topic.
More pronoun options is great, forcing people to conform is not.
You're literally on a communist forum, lol.
What communism have you done lately? What exactly is revolutionary here?
Fed poor people, prevented arrests and evictions, did gay stuff. Your turn.
Do whatever you want with your own profile. You shouldn't have to feel pressured to present yourself anyway that you're not comfortable with.

why did Kitten_Phiblyt just get banned?
Check the modlog. Says "Troll".
That was really uncharitable, Kitten was trying to resolve the conflict.

It shouldn't be this hard to respect someone's decision for how they want to present themselves.
But not having an identifier is how i want to present myself

Thanks for the response, but honestly not having anything would make me the most comfortable, but if it's it's going to put people out I'll pick one
Yes, and I agree that your choice should be respected.
Exactly. You should be under no pressure to select your own pronouns. Anyone who is upset about that isnt an ally.

There's an undecided option.
