And there I thought I was fitting in here

Ah, don't take it outta context. I mean forcefully so, the more kids that see their teachers persecuted for not getting a gender pronoun correct or kids abusing these systems to abuse eachother in ways I'm sure we won't even have imagined the more hate you direct towards LGBT. I'm all for equality but not under these circumstances and I'm against the political front of any minority group causing real harm toward the future of implementation of this equality, even to the point of getting that group killed, as we have seen in the shooting in Florida. You just can't force it, the "ignorant" need to believe they thought of it or they will reject it and instead destroy it. If you have seen the movie inception, this is basic stuff man.

I *think* I understand where you're headed.

My policy on all those new pronouns is that a person shouldn't get offended if at first I don't use the right pronoun for their situation as it's not always easy to know but should that person ask me to use "ze" when talking about hir(?), I'll make the effort to do so.

It would be just as misplaced for me to be offended about that person wanting me to use that pronoun than it would for hir to be offended by me messing up at first.

uhh..I think you were on drugs.

Anyhow, I've realized that there's no point in arguing anymore. Only a small percentage of people are extremely PC, but I'm sure it will expand as time goes on.

I just choose to say nothing to most people. If you say nothing, there's typically no reason as to why people would do something to you.

Oh really? You think putting up the LGBT/gender meshing crowd as the current face of western society is a good idea to the people who are trying to blow up Europe one piece at a time is a good idea? You think not focusing on the actual peoples welfare (migrants and all) instead of their gender is first on the to do list? Anyway, you are proving my growing suspicion that a soviet cold war mind fuck worked on the west and we are slowly but obendiently sleep walking off a cliff.  I'm aware of how ridiculous that sounds but what sounds more ridiculous is a teacher not being able to call there students "girl, lady, madam or woman" under penalty of law. Trump is more ridiculous. Stutnex is more ridiculous. Turkey's "security measures" are more ridiculous. The Brexit is more ridiculous. And above all, this pronoun list is insane... 

I think it's cowardly and sad to suggest that we should dictate our lives and how we treat one another based on what terrorists think.

 

As I said, we can do both. We don't need stop focusing on one problem to deal with another.

I still dont get what the Soviet Union has to so with any of this...

 

You know what I think about that list of pronouns? I don't give a shit about it. Who cares? I don't give a shot about whether teachers call students women or girls or god damn unicorns. It's not worth my time to think about. But if it matters to someone else that I use certain pronouns and not others, fuck it, fine, whatever. Because once again. I don't care.

 

If someone tries to silence someone that has a different opinion from them, that I have a problem with. If someone tries to deny someone service because of what they think of who they are, that I have a problem with.

 

But these garbage fights against people asking that we just be a little bit more respectful to one another are bullshit.

I realize that these threads are nothing but a waste of time.

 

Most of time the people we complain about are nothing but a minority- LGBT, feminazis, Super SJW's, age sliders, etc.

 

I guess just ignoring it ends up making life so much better. Removes all the stupid arguments and stress that comes out of it.

After reading the OP all anyone can say is put the bong down.

Wait, are you saying that pronoun thing was real? I thought it was just showing like German versions of pronouns or something?

I'm not an expert on them but I think they are a list of gender-neutral pronouns and since they are not official words, not everyone agrees on which set of pronouns to use.

Political Correctness will only serve to soften children up and leave them unprepared for a treacherous real world. For instance, most people in the real world don't care what you're preferred pronouns are, and you'll just not get that second interview because you felt it necessary to correct them.

I don't want to express my opinion now incase I am hated on and demonized some more. Obviously I'm joking. Who cares what your called? I'm a man, call me a banana for all I care and make up words for it, Its only semantics, is acceptance not what LGBT want? Or is it compliance at any cost? These people at the spear head of the political movement are not doing LGB people any favours, in fact they are putting them in line for a whole new form of hatred and one that is based not on ignorant minded nonsense but on real world events such as people getting their businesses, Jobs and possibly even their freedom put in jeopardy. Do you see what I'm saying? They are holding up a metaphorical sign that says we are going to force you to accept us, now accept that and shut up because we are getting laws passed to put you non LGBT people away if you don't comply. 

...Not to mention the target LGBT extremists are painting on their backs for angry people with guns.

Idiocy. 

The point is that if you want me to call you banana I will. I don't get angry that you prefer to be called banana, to me that's about the same as someone called Robert who prefers to be called Bob. Would you get up in arms because he asks you to call him Bob?
