mocking and quoting bigots I've seen so far

:liberalism: turns to pit “you know it’s hexbear when the tankie pronoun parade shows up to force pictures of pigshit in front of you!”* real quick

[*this is paraphrased, I can’t remember the exact original quote]

Or “so suddenly I’m Hitler because i think people calling themselves Fae gender is dumb”

Or “why should i need to learn a new set of different pronouns for every person I meet?” (this followed two comments after “I’m literally not a transphobe, I work with plenty of trans colleagues who feel safe around me” (average lib being scratched in real time by having to acknowledge neopronouns))

.
All of these shitheads claimed to be allies when they started interacting but our brilliant pronoun tags immediately made them out themselves as the bigots they are who only pretend to be allies because it looks bad to be openly and proudly transphobic

TL;DR: pitmaduro-katana-1hexbear-non-binary

    Here’s a terrible take I saw today from a lemm.ee user:

    [Hexbear’s] they/them tags are a blantant mockery of trans people.

    I guess my pronouns are a joke??

    no, they aren’t pro trans or pro lgbtq. They purposely pick those pronouns and go around to post racist stuff, bigotry, chinese propaganda and all the accompanying junk. Typical online terrorism.

    Hexbear is so good at being GSRM inclusive that they literally think it’s satirical or something. Which basically outs them as having never been a part of a truly inclusive space, since they expect that most people should use “normal” pronouns, and that spaces shouldn’t be visibly queer.
