Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character?

And the same crowd that would spend their time making posts about a certain dragon poster all the time.

IDK if that one’s exactly comparable, drag has repeatedly clarified about it being explicitly a fetish thing (not just a furry thing) and while they are annoying as all fuck even without the cringe neopronouns, the real issue there is how incredibly not okay it is bing people into your fetish without their consent. Drag is a dip and, while a lot of the hate they get is probably based around hetero-normative societal values and really isn’t justified on that account, the pronouns only exacerbate the pushback they get about their wildly toxic behavior, they don’t drive it.
The thorne thing is just annoying, and would probably be a non-issue if the person doing it weren’t so incredibly eager to draw attention to it and then start fights by spouting rhetoric that at this point they have to know is wrong.

Tldr, but suspect you proved my point that people are way too opinionated about other people’s idiosyncrasies. Does drag even post anymore (or like that at least)?

Man it sure is easy to claim victory when you refuse to engage with the other person, ain’t it? But well done for puttin’ me in my place, I sure am humbled to know that someone who balks at reading 179 whole words might disagree with me…
