Told that deliberately mislabeling transwomen is offensive, because mods know what Im thinking, and it couldnt just be that Im posting without regards to gender labels. I mean if they said just mislabeling transpeople was offensive, I get that given the very liberal mods, but to say deliberately is just making a wrongful assumption.

Not to mention that the post that quoted mine (quoting a modded post is moddable as said by a mod) is still up, AND they also called the transwoman a man.

I got modded for saying it was silly for the Borderlands 3 board to ban people who refused to accept that a fictional robot character identified as gender neutral. Note that I didn't even misgender the robot, I just said that banning people for doing so was silly -- and I still got modded.

Dude a mod literally told me that its moddable to quote a modded post. Not to mention that you also referred to the transwoman using a male pronoun. Thats double hypocrisy.

Who mods the moderators? Although using that quote makes me think of a giant blue Error with exposed genitals and my eyes won't stop burning.

You're using playwrights to justify something being accepted by the "defender of the language" types. That doesn't work. Playwrights used to get executed for being heretics all the time.

'he' can be used for a non-specific person. ie, "one of the candidates running for office". but once you know which candidate you're talking about, you need to use the pronoun they use for themselves.

personally, I want us to go full Spivak and use E as the 3PS pronoun for everyone.

I dont see the connection between 21st century grammarians and english feudal lords at all. their executions do nothing to affect their contributions to the language, and I dont think anyone out there is dense enough to think they do
