Why single out pronouns. Let's all pile some hate on adverbs and prepositions while we're at it. Ffs as if people wanting to be addressed using different language is something worth thinking about when there's literally a climate catastrophe that will kill billions on the way.

But no, it's the Pride people who are wrong. Smdh.

Can we also declare war on collective nouns? I hate them all with a blaze of passion.
