    And for the record, I didn’t come out swinging against neopronouns. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with neo-pronouns themselves.

    What happened is that I saw a community who

    • sexually harasses people
    • fetishizes violence and executions
    • fears and mistrusts the media (to an extreme)
    • draws harsh in-group out-group lines
    • blurs the lines of their opinions with irony
    • “the West”

    And I saw all that and double sets of pronouns including neopronouns, and I was like omg, it’s Nazis pretending to be leftists. They act like Nazis, who ran with the pronoun thing and took it to the highest level. (I know now they aren’t Nazi’s, but the behavior makes a really bad first impression)

    The problem was never actually the neopronouns. It was the Nazi-like behavior that came attached.
