The double sets of pronouns and neopronouns, at first glance, made it look like a satire of gender inclusivity to me.
And after some experience with them it’s clear that it isn’t satire, and they highly value gender inclusivity. My opinion now is that the apparent absurdity is a loyalty test. If you think fae/faer pronouns are silly, you aren’t an “ally” and you are immediately identified as out-group. And the out-group, transpobes, liberals, fascists, all get lumped together so much they can’t distinguish between them.
It’s pretty much exactly what the right wing does. They can’t distinguish between liberals, leftists, tankies, or anarchists, because it’s all just “the enemy” to them.
I do not like tankies but I have absolutely never experienced this, all tankies typically want to do is discuss theory and history to the point that it’s exhausting. Have you talked to any Trotskyists??
I have almost no experience with tankies tbh, so I’ll be the first to say my opinions of them comes mostly from ignorance.
But so far I’ve heard that a “nuanced understanding of geopolitics and history” means you think “NATO made Putin do it”.

I’m sorry WHAT
Please tell me this is a shitpost
Look at that, you took two unrelated parts and stripped out all of the context.
That’s what we call bad-faith trolling.
Tankies can be ideologically diametrically opposed to alt-right fascists, yet use the same techniques. For example, they both love bad-faith trolling.
