Part of the drama is people getting in trouble for using they/them, look at the screenshot being used against Gormadt in this very thread.
It's a thorny issue to be sure, but I still struggle to see what's wrong with they/them.
Using they/them when someone asks you not to is a shitty thing to do and should not be acceptable on an instance that’s supposed to be a safe space for queer people.
so many people are willfully missing this very simple point, and it says a lot about how they really think about trans people.
Of course, but it's not clear at all that's what's happening in the screenshot.
