    The word "see" is a 'turn of phrase' now, since when? And what do their pronouns have to do with anything?

    They made a claim about folks getting alienated and I'm asking for proof, why y'all being weird

    Edit: THEY

          "I can see [thing i predict will happen]" has been a turn of phrase in english for centuries

            That's not a turn of phrase, that's just a declarative sentence, also are you like their significant other or something?

            Like damn kiss-ass let them explain it for themself

              That’s not a turn of phrase, that’s just a declarative sentence

              You didn't know what it meant 20 minutes ago bud

              also are you like their significant other or something?

              No

              Like damn kiss-ass let them explain it for themself

              It's an incredibly widely used phrase

                lol I understood perfectly what they meant, I was contesting their claim and asking for PROOF, that's why I put "see" in quotation marks because I wanted to know where they had come across these made-up alienated people mad about pronoun struggle sessions

                No

                Goddamn Shrek in shiny armor over here

                  How can one “see” people becoming alienated if the alienation leads them to not engage with threads or post

                  Looks like you took it literally to me mate

                  Goddamn Shrek in shiny armor over here

                  What does that even mean

                    Yes, I took the obvious declarative statement literally, as in they had "seen" people making posts or comments describing their deeply felt alienation over a boring-ass struggle session, and not simply talking out their ass making wild assume-oh I'm sorry "prEdiCtiOns" about shit they're just guessing is happening..somewhere??? You do realize your reading of their comment makes them look dumb af right?

                    What does that even mean

                    It means you're gonna get your swamp back, congratulations
