Yeah? The pronoun is what causes it to be plural. This is how the grammar works. I don't understand what your argument is here.

    The number of people you're talking about causes it to be plural, not the misuse of a plural pronoun.

    Which is why we use plural for singular second person, obviously

    E: I am not gonna continue this prescriptivist argument any further. There are certainly cases where "they is" is correct, but that does not discount the singular "they are". This is my stance and remains my stance. You believe whatever you want, have a nice day.
