Looking for Hate in the Wrong Places
Expanding on the growing institutional campaign to use gender-neutral pronouns, the University of Tennessee has confected up some new ones:
Students are increasingly coming to college ill prepared to do the work required, and the (overstaffed) administrations are still piddling about inventing new ways to tongue-tie pupils, ignoring that the English language – unlike, for example, Romance-based ones, Hebrew, Greek, and German – is remarkably devoid of gender specificity except for the basic pronouns, which clarify meaning. Try this out with zhee: Tom and Mary went to school. Zhee passed; zhee flunked out. Who?
Not tongue-tied is the odious Louis Farrakhan, friend of many top Democrats, including Keith Ellison, members of the Congressional Black Caucus, Democratic Congressman Danny Davis, and former president Obama.
This past week, Farrakhan unleashed a ridiculous diatribe to an audience, which included one of the leaders of the upcoming Women's March (several of whom have allied with him)...to silence from Democrats and those who find aggressions and microaggressions even in ordinary grammar:

I will not be participating. Thank you.
Since I know the difference between a Witch and a Warlock the Witches can all can all GO TO HE**!

Nature operates on the feminine/masculine principle.
So nugatory is this fact, that romance languages such as Spanish and French are indicative of the realization, they having feminine and masculine pronouns.
And if they want to make every thing around me an “it,”they had better be prepared to die to make it happen.
These neuter-ists do not know whether to scratch their watch or wind their ass. And they know less about nature itself, the sole basis for good , accurate communication.
They are trying to force people to change their thoughts by forcing them to change the language. In CA, they are arresting people who don’t use someone’s “preferred” pronouns.
I will not be using these made-up words. No one tells me how to speak or to write. Fascists are cordially invited to go straight to hell.
I don’t suppose it’s occurred to these nitwits simply to use the (already established) neuter pronouns for everyone and everything.
This will make going to the hardware store very annoying.
“Tom and Mary went to school. Zhee passed; zhee flunked out. Who?”
You are missing the point. No one passed nor flunked out. That is not approved NEWSPEAK thinking.
The proper answer is: Zhee both received participation trophies and then zhee went to the Antifa meeting.
