When I see people like the Wachowski brothers I sometimes believe that they are beyond help. They're such extremists that it feels as though it would be easier to get Jews and Nazis to reconcile than it would be to get this pair to reconcile with normal society.
Are they themselves going to rewrite and re-release the matrix with the red pill metaphore, one which they ripped off, removed?
These people are psychologically disturbed and it's easy to see why if they're reading papers such as the Guardian wh
How would you feel if you saw someone walk down the street naked except for an adult diaper and you had to speak to them in baby talk or else you could be fired from your job? Yeah, that's how a most people see "misgendering". Is it a fair comparison? I don't know, but a lot of people see it that way and having it in the span of a couple years be something that went from being reserved for niche porn to something that you're just supposed to accept is... well, it's not going to go over very well for a lot o
The concept of manners is often about controlling others and demanding conformity. We can all play make believe and invent manners. From henceforth you'll always refer to me as "you're highness". If you can't be bothered to adopt the manners I have prescribed then don't bother speaking to me I don't want to hear it.
Oh, if they asked for respect, I would think it over. But that's not what's happening. It's a demand, either I obey the ideology or else.

You can take the diaper off, but they can't put their dicks back on?
I understand why you don't want to consider them women, but if you were talking to someone in the street without a dick and yelled "THATS A MAN!" I mean I'm not going to nod or shake my head at that but it would make you the asshole.
I like how, on top of misgendering 2 american icons, you decide to go with comparing them to Jews and Nazis. Stay classy, bro.
I thought labeling, comparatively, Jew and Nazi, was comparing a socially depressed society on the verge of complete monetary post-war implosion to a sociopath who likes to play on the minds of the desperately unhappy for their own pleasure and self-aggrandizement. Wait just a minute... I'm confused.
