We've been tricked! Hoodwinked! Bamboozled! Far right agitators have brainwashed us into believing there are such things as gender neutral pronouns! "They"? "Thon"? These aren't gender neutral pronouns. It's time for hexbearians to stand up against this transphobic rhetoric. For too long, we've stood by as websites, forms, and video games referred to cisgender people as "they" and "them" instead of "he" and "she". Shame. Shame! We need to rise up against this misgendering! We can't keep referring to people of unknown gender as "they", because that pronoun is only for people of one specific gender.

Transphobes have even convinced us to use so-called "gender neutral pronouns" on ourselves. "I"? "Me"? "Myself"? These are right wing dogwhistles. From now on drone will only be referring to droneself using the gender-specific first person pronouns "drone" and "droneself". Drone suggests others use the gender-specific first person pronouns "manself", "womanself", and gender-specific variations upon "nonbinaryself".

And remember never ever ever to refer to a questioning trans or nonbinary person by a pronoun. This is how the transphobes win, by manipulating us into using so-called "gender neutral pronouns" on questioning and nonbinary people. We must protect trans people by making everything in our society as gendered as possible. Gender neutrality and separation of gender identity from basic participation in society are what the transphobes want! We cannot allow any form of gender neutrality onto Hexbear or into our local communities!

Stand up against gender neutral pronouns!

(This is a satirical post directed at people who believe some of the things in this satire. I don't believe that gender neutral pronouns are a transphobic myth. Gender-specificity should not be prerequisites to existence in society. Questioning trans and NB people need pronouns that don't gender them. There is nothing wrong with gender neutral first person pronouns as a default or with first person neopronouns.)
