i literally just wasnt looking at lemmy, i didnt see your three comments until now, i wasnt like evading you or anything. i'll just like read what you said fully now

edit: having actually read it the like whole stereotype of like a privileged white person changing their pronouns for attention and so they can feel oppressed is largely a transphobic trope that gives cover for putting down trans people. to some degree i agree that like queer white people can use their queerness as a weapon against racial minorities as a putdown (i've seen this happen myself personally) and solely refer to violence against trans people without mentioning that the majority of transphobic murders and sexual assaults that happen are against black trans people so even though all trans people are under threat, black queer people are at the meeting point of queerness and blackness where violence against them is considered the most acceptable by frothing conservatives - but this is like a discussion to be had between queer and POC people, not white cishet people.

the majority of people who like use neopronouns mainly do it in queer exclusive spaces because like there's a risk of having conservatives get really mad at them over it, that's why its not really visible to cishet people outside of the internet because most cishets arent privy to the spaces where queer people do it, it's not just a thing people do to seem special (for instance Leslie Feinberg, a very well known trans liberationist activist used neopronouns "I am a human being who would rather not be addressed as Ms. or Mr., ma’am or sir. I prefer to use gender-neutral pronouns like sie (pronounced like “see””) and hir (pronouncedlike “here”) to describe myself. I am a person who faces almost insurmountable difficulty when instructed to check off an “F” or an “M” box on identification papers.").

In regards to the "hexbear is like israel" thing, i disagree with quite a lot that they say but to compare them to a country currently doing a genocide is a bit out of hand. I disagree with their whole "Dont vote" shit but like i can understand where its coming from, in my own country (Britain) there's a sense that like the labour party is stripping away the pro queer stance that they had under corbyn while platforming transphobes and cynically using queer rights to promote the actual Israel. The conservatives would be so much worse than the labour party and are currently basically teeing themselves up to be like american republicans were a few years ago but i get the urge to just burn it all down, when it comes to the vote i'll be going to vote and cursing starmer's name while i do it, but i'll probably still be voting for him

Gonna give you my honest two cents.

You come across as a cunt whenever you police who can use neo pronouns based on how they look or act.

Pronouns are something people should be free to explore.

Hopefully being able to look into the topic without prejudice will allow people to discover their own queerness and/or empathise with people that do use them.

Neverind that that is bad faith to argue that hexbear enforces neo pronouns, trad pronouns or anonymous can be used.
