LWDT 7: The Earth and Heavens Tremble.

And, besides that, I'm pretty sure most, if not all people with a non-cisgender identity don't turn into screeching madpeople just because somebody said a wrong pronoun by mistake. Which, of course, wasn't the case here, but I digress.

Not that doing so would be entirely unreasonable if Liri had indeed said that he uses they/them pronouns and I ignored that fact.

Of course. There's really nothing wrong with being upset if you get deliberately misgendered, tbqh, even though that wasn't the case here.

[Liriena]

I despise /pol/ and am not defending them. I am defending the people with mental disorders that have to endure the usage of "retard," a legitimate psychiatric term, as an insult. As Liriena is a member of the Leftist Skeleton Army^TM, he ought to know better than using a term for a social group to denigrate a separate class of people.

Lirinia is gonna be over you for not using they.

I don't use they pronouns so no, but thanks for your witty contribution. I'm proud of you.

Edit: Wow, that is a stupid trolling campaign.

I miss the days when trolls were actually creative and just in it for the lulz, rather than a bunch of stupid teenage neonazis desperately trying to invent dogwhistles with the subtlety of an airhorn

Maybe they should try to spread phrases that contain letters of racist slogans?

I'm no racist, but "Grass maintenance is something that may be found just excruciating, although somewhat satisfying." comes to my mind.

Not sure how many people here have seen this video, but I think this is honestly a really excellent, hopeful statement on how leftist politics are bound to (and, if recent trends are to be believed, already are) win(ning) out. :3

[Galloism]

Pretty hard for it to "work" when the media already reports that it's trolling and is treating it as such. /pol/tards have overplayed their hand. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And this is why you probably shouldn't repeatedly plot to troll and gaslight the libs with fake nonsense in a public forum that everyone can read.

Finally someone called them on that shit.

After we unironically had to remove the ok hand symbol from every piece of documentation at work, I wanted to drink until unconsciousness was achieved.

PhilosophyTube became my favourite Youtuber with his Bannon and Brexit videos... and I gotta tell you, that's some heavy competition he had.

But yeah, I really liked this one too. I'm not a huge fan of putting my faith in some sort of inevitable leftist victory, but he presented a very interesting (and inspiring) argument for it.

A little girl I taught gave me the 'ok' sign when I was asking her if she was okay during class (she looked stressed). It's amazing to think some people might actually look at this innocent child and say she's a white nat.

[Luminesa]

Liriena has stated before that he uses he/him pronouns. Not everyone who's in favor of trans rights has to use they/them or neopronouns.

And, besides that, I'm pretty sure most, if not all people with a non-cisgender identity don't turn into screeching madpeople just because somebody said a wrong pronoun by mistake. Which, of course, wasn't the case here, but I digress.

You say this but then get uncomfortable by someone calling you "dude" even in a non-gendering manner. Like...come on.

What the fuck are you talking about? Because, uh, no.

[Luminesa]

I find it hilarious you are the self appointed “language officer” for a term that /pol/lacks probably view as a term of endearment.

Thanks for making the most compelling argument for calling them something else.

I mean, don't get mad at a mod for correcting you on it then.

This whole thing-a-ma-ding from 10 pages ago. You were uncomfortable with the idea even though I was joking with someone else.

Yeah, because not everyone (not me, personally), appreciates that (and I brought that up only because there's trans women I know who dislike that), which I figured was made clear to you with my subsequent post:

I unironically call even my sister "dude", lol. Just a habit, I sound like a 90's surfboarder when I talk. It's not to misgender, just I've called people "dude" and "bruh" for so long that it's my default for most people.

Meh, fair I guess, but still. Best not to do it if someone asks.

Which I answered saying I’ve never met a person, trans or otherwise, who got offended by me saying “dude” as a general way of greeting people. Like, sure I’ll call you whatever, but “dude” and “bro” is just the way I talk. I call my sister “bro” even.

That's the funny thing with personal experiences, ain't it?

Okay? Good for you, I guess. I see no reason how this makes me "uncomfortable" with that when all I was doing was saying that some people dislike that, considering those two words are popularly seen as denotations for men.

[Dumb Ideologies]

Yes, attempts to discourage the generic terms "guys", "dudes", "bruh", or whatever is a bit cringe, but bringing it back up ten pages later to try to start a fight about it is on a bit of a different tier.

Tbh, I'm perfectly fine being a bit "cringe" over referencing something relating to personal experiences of mine, but this shit Lumi's pulling is something ludicrous.

To be honest, we need to encourage "dude" and maybe even "man" to be used in a more gender neutral way.

Serious question, why do you even post here, Lumi? All you seem to do on LWDT is antagonize left-wing posters like Torra, Liri, etc. what have they done to deserve you constantly badgering them and digging through their posts to find examples of “hypocrisy?”

Why do you post in RWDT? I dunno, Gallo and DI and Nana and some others who are left-leaning also post here, I chat with them. You don’t run the thread and you seem to take every comment I make to other people personally.

Dude is pretty gender neutral already.

Man was historically.
