A tip of the hat ol' Eugene Debs as per always. You've also always been a good egg, friend.

He will never admit that he is transphobic by dictating that transness has to fit his definition of it.

Admiral Patrick and PugJeuss are the smae person effectively. Both hate actions being called out.

Sorry for providing evidence of your bullshit, lmao. I know you hate evidence.

By the way, SmugJesus replied to St Elesewere and said Ada is lying about him. He knows you and Ada can’t rebuke him, so he replies only to people who can’t read his messages to prove him wrong.

I have literally spoken directly to Ada several times on the issue, and her response was to block me. Sorry that not everyone is a coward like you. :)

Unfortunately, Ada still to this day spreads slander that I do not respect neopronouns, despite that explicitly not being the issue and being corrected on that.

I dunno Drag always seemed sincere to me, and perhaps Drag was outed as a troll later on (I haven't seen Drag in a long time, maybe that's why), but really what it comes down to is having basic respect for people instead of instantly deciding they must be a troll because of their neopronouns. Ada isn't about people making snap judgments with no evidence and Drags neopronouns were just as valid as anyone else's.

Even now, not knowing if Drag is a troll or not, it's still worth respecting on the off chance Drag's not a troll and just a weirdo.

A post from Ada two years ago summing it up:

I’ve been waiting until after Christmas day to make this post, but some of our communities recently have had a lot of noise and upset over someone that uses neopronouns that most people are unfamiliar with.

So I want to make this clear. A persons pronouns are to be respected. This is true when the user is using neopronouns that you’re unfamiliar with. It’s true even if you think someone is trolling. Pronouns are not rewards for good behaviour. They aren’t only to be respected when you like the person you’re interacting with, or if their pronouns “make sense” to you. Trolls, spammers, twitter users, it doesn’t matter who they are, your options are to respect their pronouns, or to not engage with them.

I really want to re-iterate the importance of this. Gender diverse folk are undermined, invalidated and questioned at every step of our lives. As a community, we need to be working to undo that, not creating more of it, and that means there is no space for treating pronouns (including neopronouns) as a reward for good behaviour.

This isn’t a free reign for trolls and spammers. The rules still apply. Trolling, spamming, etc will continue to be dealt with, but it’s not an excuse to act as if respecting someones pronouns is optional.

Pug couldn't handle this basic request for decency. *shrugs
