Reply to comment by AelfredRex in Local teacher reinstated after refusing to use preferred pronouns, district policy suspended by _Woodrow_
So if your name is Robert and you ask people call you Rob or Bob or Bobby, they have every right to tell you “go fuck yourself, how DARE you try to curtail my free speech!”
That’s how silly you sound.

If someone comes up and says "Call me Rob or else"... that's a threat and that's the game these people play.

Lol, literally nobody is doing that. They’re asking you to just use their pronouns, and you’re being an obstinate asshole.

And when you refuse they throw tantrums and try to ruin your life. That's thuggery.

…..or you could just, not be a dick to people? It’s not like it’s a hard ask. If you’re talking to them, you wouldn’t even use their preferred pronouns. If you’re talking to someone else about them, is it REALLY that much to just use “she/he” instead of “he/she”?
Be kind to people.

Unless they refuse to speak the way you want them to, then destroy their careers. Right?

If you have to be mandated to not be an asshole to people, so be it. It’s really not that big of a deal, just don’t be a dick? Why is that so hard?

"Waaah, teacher didn't use my pronouns! He didn't validate my ego! Crucify him! Destroy his career! Ruin him financially! I deserve to be OBEYED!"
That's what you defend. You think you're being so moral but you have no problem destroying a person's life just to stroke your own ego. Who's the dick?

Yeah that teacher sounds like an asshole and a child. It doesn’t affect you in the slightest if someone asks to use X pronouns. You’re just whining that people call you an asshole. Don’t be an asshole. Be like Bill and Ted.

You type like a frustrated child. Take a nap, have some juice.

Oh, honey. No one is wasting the energy to threaten a troll like yourself.
