Can we talk about the gaslighting the left does about pronouns? They say that having to state/having pronouns in your signature title is not political and that everyone has them and we conservatives are making a big deal out of nothing. Yet they bully celebrities like Gina Carino into putting them in her bio. And, if you can't tell the difference in sex between me and my little sister, y'know, male and female, pronouns should be obvious just by looking, then yes it is political
Of course itâs political. Displaying âpreferred pronounsâ is a public declaration of your belief and support in gender theory - radical left dogma. Oops, sorry, did you know, itâs now transphobic or something to say âpreferred pronouns,â according to University of Michiganâs Language Police. Georgia State University didnât get the memo, theyâre still asking students if they prefer to be called coself, emself, yoself, ze, xie, vis, eir, ey or ve. See the problem? Itâs all made up babble. Thereâs no consistency and can be changed daily, depending on how we feel. Which leads to the next problem. We are told to forget about biology, donât use sex and focus only on whatâs in our mind. Thought is much easier to manipulate and control, after all.Â
We are told itâs no big deal and you must be a conspiracy theorist if you think itâs political, yet courts have already started to force professors to use the preferred pronouns of students or else join others being fired. Californiaâs SB 219 bill also fines or jails employees of long-term or intermediate care facilities who choose not to use preferred gender pronouns. Itâs not political. Thereâs almost no school or company in the country which wonât reprimand or get rid of you for ignoring their preferred pronoun requirements, but if youâre worried about that, you must be transphobic.
Even taking sex and biology out of the picture, itâs incredibly stupid and grammatically incorrect to use first and second-person gender pronouns. Itâs only the third-person pronoun in English that conveys gender, when youâre referring to somebody or something else, not yourself. A normal, courteous exchange about names might go like this: âHi, my name is Jessica, but I go by Jessâ âHi, Jess, pleased to meet you.â What proud gender pronoun enforcers are demanding manifests as follows: âHi, Iâm Jessica. I identify as gender non-conforming. When you talk about me to someone else in the future, I want you to identify me as Xe, because that will indicate that you accept and go along with me thinking of myself as a non-binary individual, and if you donât, Iâll get you fired.â Could you get any more egotistic?Â
This is not asking people to be polite, itâs thought policing. Itâs no different to holding up four fingers and demand you say âfive!â There is no place in a free and open society to punish people who do not think or speak the correct way that some edgy teenager demands. Itâs about power. I can almost guarantee every one of us have either censored ourselves or gone along with it from fear of offending the politically correct. We are expected to apologize and beg for forgiveness for "mistakingâ pronouns that are otherwise biologically and grammatically correct, and go around asking everyone if they like to be referred in third-person conversations by the pronoun that matches their sex or by a different one that they have made up with Scrabble pieces.Â
The gap between reality and language should be as narrow as possible so our speech makes sense and reflects reality, yet gender ideology requires to obliterate both language and reality. Asking me to be considerate is not the same thing as asking me to play along with whatâs in your head or else face punishment. But thatâs the whole point of these pronoun games. Do as I say or donât say anything at all. The perfect recipe for conformity.Â
