    It would be pretty funny if a chud made a mod that removed all pronouns, and it accidentally removes even ones like 'me', 'I', and 'you' so the whole game becomes an unintelligible mess

          It's just mocking a term conservatives use, and I don't think using it as a parody is quite the same as hexbears spamming me with pictures of cows shitting.

            No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, or transphobia. Don't care if it's ironic don't post comments or content like that here.

            Right there in the sidebar.

            If you were parodying a racist, would you use the n-slur?

                Neurodivergent users already came to a consensus to not allow slurs or derivatives on Hexbear, it's in the siterules and sidebar.

                What's bad faith about that? Seems a completely legitimate question.

                The issue here is that it leads to "So why is it ok to use the ableist slur and not ok to use the racist slur." to which there isn't really a good answer, and you're predicting that and pre-emptively running away.

                  Exactly. I asked earnestly because we already know that it wouldn't be okay to use the n-slur in the same context. I want to challenge people to take ableist slurs more seriously.

                    I generally think that particular slur is usually taken more seriously. Most people do not like hearing it. This parody use is one of the few places I still see it and it's usually among the circlejerk humour crowd.

    If pronouns shouldn't matter to anyone then why do chuds always rage and mald whenever they see them? thonk

    pronouns which shouldn't matter to anyone

    so if I start refering to this person as a "she", would he care?

      I always make the same argument with names. It very quickly turns out even transphobes pretty much all care what words you use to refer to them.

      Anyone who is against asking for or showing pronouns is saying they want you to assume its pronouns. That's right. "It". If it doesn't like it it tells me it's pronouns.

    I wish fascism was what these people say it is. They always make everything out to be way cooler than the reality. It's like when they talk about Hillary Clinton as if she's personally harvesting adrenachrome from babies or Obama's Wal-Mart FEMA death camps or whatever

      These people's understanding of fascism is "Government I don't like"

      Everything else is some wrinkly gibberish they farted out while actively participating in oppression and bigotry

        I think its even broader than that. More like it's just "when people get offended at something I say". Doesn't need to involve a government, or even any consequences; just expressing that you think they're wrong is enough to label you a fascist.

        it occurs to me that maybe they think this way because so many of their attempts to defend their ideology end with people calling them a fascist and disengaging so they just assume it's some kind of political debate trump card

      To a lot of consumer-brained "nonpoliticals," "fascism" means "ANYONE WHO SCOLDS ME OR TELLS ME WHAT I SHOULD DOOOOOOOOOOOO."
