Well firstly, saying "he" when you have already seen or been told that is wrong is not a "grammatical error." Nor is use of "heshe." Nor is use of "(((she)))," especially if you are internet-poisoned enough to know that last one's origins.

But I'm more stuck by the second problem with your post: it was MY post. Your whole comment here is just stealing the point I was making that you and others disagreed with earlier. I had said earlier that misgendering or running cover for those who do it are making your arguements weaker. It also sends support to the victims and legitimizes their status. All I got for a response was "bad argument lul pronouns mad."

Nobody is forcing you to dive on these grenades for people who make you look bad and help the person this topic was about; they get to come out in a stronger social position. Letting go of the aggrievement-culture nonsense and not taking shots for people purposefully denigrating minority groups could have made any points about Sena so much more salient, but that isn't the thread you wanted.
