I’m not even totally clear on what a pup handler is. Are those the ones that get on all fours and wear masks?
I teach English as a Second Language. This is nonsense, and is another attempt to corrupt language to serve political purposes. It goes without saying that I won’t be introducing my students to this. English is hard enough to learn without adding crap from lunatics. I did mention the whole gender identity thing in passing once and how it affects language, and my students, who are all from more traditional cultures, thought it was madness.
One problem with the choosing pronouns thing is that it always involves third person pronouns. If I am addressing a person directly, I would say “you”. The third person is used only in referring to that person. He/She/It/They/Ze/Zim/Zhe might not even be present, and yet I would be expected to use those chosen pronouns. And then what about verbs? If a person wants to be referred to as “they”, is it “They is a lunatic” or “They are a lunatic?
The handbasket done arrived in Hell.
The Democrats get their kicks pushing this crap
just seeing how much sh1t they can make the country eat before it pukes...
Cue ball in the side pocket.
I’m embarrassed to be an American these days.
I highly suspect that what we have here are domestic enemies of the USA trying to throw the country into turmoil, anarchy, all for the benefit of China.
Biden should send them to Saudi Arabia to help negotiate
“is it “They is a lunatic” or “They are a lunatic?
“
“They” all need to announce whether they are plural[or more] or singular.
It certainly has that affect.
“Wait.... what the hell?
I thought this was a chick and she was a lesbian?!”
Well, I’ll bet the Russians know whether she’s a she or a he. I’m sure they have given he/she a thorough physical examination. We haven’t heard anything from them about what they found out. I wonder why. If the Russians have found out what sex she/he really is, they would have outed him/her by now, I would think, and use it for propaganda purposes, but they haven’t. A curiosity.
