celebrating everyone who is not a straight white male


My old company started doing this, including on social media. Every month was something. Like... Pacific Islander month. They'd pick a token employee and run a profile on them. I never saw any that focused on any of the amazing talent otherwise.

Why not feature the guy with degrees in robotics and physics and business? That's pretty cool. Or the guy that worked on some very HUGE movies? Or the guy that invented a thing that the company bought? It's always celebrating people and their only achievement is their heritage.

Great, she's brown. What has she done? Oh, she has worked here for 2 months and answers the phones. What about the girl over there that was hired on day one, and has designed or help design 200 products? Nope, not interesting?

My name is Goldenguy and my pronouns are count/count’s.

“You can’t use those words as your pronouns.”

From across the room: “You should respect count’s life choices.”

This is the only correct answer.

Second only to Logic, the liberal theology is at war with the English language.

Not that I know of. It is in people's social media profile, work title, dating apps, shite like that.

I havent actually met someone that prefaced their pronoun out at the bar. Anywhere else I dont talk to people unless im exchanging you money for an item I purchased. And the cashier at Rouses has never said... He/Him, I'm Randy! how can i help you?

It's just shorthand to let you know that you are encouraged to dismiss anything else that they say, as nothing else that follows will be of value, whatsoever.

I'm new to this. What is the point of identifying your pronoun?

I don’t have a problem with calling them they/them as they are probably filled with demons and is therefore an accurate way to refer to them.

Yes.

My cousin's daughter, sophomore in college, refers to her boyfriend as "my partner" and avoids saying "his/him", "her/hers/she" at all costs in place of "they/them/their".

The pluralities are incredibly confusing and just the thought of having to think that way actually gives my hemorrhoids hemorrhoids.

So you're not... (stand by - there's a word for this and I have to look it up, because it's utter retardation)... misgendered.

Misgendering is an act of violence and it needs to stop.

Dear Lord, Baby Jesus, I wish I were kidding about the above.

quote:

Misgendering is an act that most often affects the transgender community, which includes transgender people, non-binary people, genderqueer people, agender people, and more. It is the act of using an incorrect pronoun or term for the person, whether on purpose or not.

The act of using one’s birth name is called “deadnaming.”

Both of these are, in my eyes, acts of violence. Both of these acts feel like being stabbed again and again in the exact same place.


They want the outside world to validate their mental illness and share in the delusion that they weren't born male or female. Imagine if schizophrenics demanded that the rest of the world acknowledge their hallucinations.

That's what we're dealing with.

These people are mentally ill, and instead of getting them help, the left is gaslighting our entire society into believing that it's a virtue that should be lifted up and praised.

WTF is this? The fact that these people come up with this shite is incredibly stupid and ignorant. That makes no sense whatsoever. How can an act at the beginning of life, given a name, be associated with a word that is associated with the end of life?

This is further proof that these people are disconnected from reality.

I'd posit that the fact that the link comes from a "non-binary" author at "BrownGirlMagazine.com" tells you practically everything you need to know, right from the jump.

Logic and language are the mortal enemies of the liberal religion.

There are no "trans women," only severely mentally ill men who desperately need psychiatric help to treat their delusions.

The prostitution rests:



From same author:

Living with Depression

quote:

I was 14 when I tried to kill myself, and I honestly remember nothing of the experience as I blacked out. What I do remember, though, is that I was 12 the first time I wanted to kill myself. I basically experienced all of middle school and my first year of high school with suicidal thoughts always in the back of my mind, but I managed to save myself more times than I can ever count.

Until I couldn’t.

It was the first week of my sophomore year of high school when I attempted. And it was two years later when, after countless dollars was spent on my treatment, I realized I wanted to kill myself again.
