So conflicted.

Virtue signaling tut-tuting corporation getting sued by a mentally deranged attention whore.

I prefer, “me Lord”, “your excellency”, “sovereign potentate”.

So where do I get my money?

I self identify as above.

Believe in something. Even if it cost you some genitals.

Assuming Jazz is not also multiple personality, perhaps "it's" demand for the use of plural pronouns is some sort of Ebonics thing?

I blame society. We allowed this behavior to get traction and now this is the result. He should be in a mental institution getting counseling.

Could be a bad precedent set if it wins. I'm sure this goes on at most jobs and I don't know how employers are going to constantly police this. I guess some employers might decide it's not worth it and not hire such individuals.

Some languages dont have he/she, everyone is an it.

Also, I thought the "agreed" upon non-gender was zie. As in he she/him her/his hers/himself herself is Zie/zir/zirs/zirself.

Liberalism is a disease.

Just another lesson in being very careful in who/ what you hire. You might make HR happy by agreeing to bring in diversity but there are serious consequences at times which will really cause you grief

Curious to see how Nike plays this. they could end up paying well more than 1.1 million if they try to force speech.

Those are existing pronouns that are literally plural

Linguistically they can't be applied to a single person unless you bastardize the language

Well to be "personal" you have to be a person...these nuts haven't evolved that far yet!
