frick Generac. Go woke go broke. There are other options. These dumbass companies will never learn. If you cater to a tiny percentage of the populace that is mentally ill and evil you deserve all the bad things that are coming your way.

Pronoun, noun , verb adjective or whatever. And while you are trying to claim a gotcha for your mantle you completely missed the point of when was it considered illegal, against civil rights or anything else other than disrespectful?


Never claimed it was. You missed the point of it being ridiculous and should think about your post.

If this is true, screw Generac.

I highly doubt it’s as cut and dried as this makes it sound.

They just want to get married and be left alone. This can’t be said enough. That line was total bullshite. They come for our children and our jobs. They demand we participate in their delusions.

I've had no issues with my Generac....on the other hand my neighbor has a Kohler and he's had the servicing people out to work on his unit MULTIPLE times in the past few years. I think if Generac doesn't get this gentleman some kind of settlement that it will hurt their bottom line when he wins in court.

Nosevens is the exact example of why society is unraveling. It does not understand that pronouns describe individuals and the individuals are part of society regardless of their preferred pronoun. You can force the pronouns but also expect the same or much larger force to reject it. A lion is a lion, a tiger is a tiger, an elephant is an elephant. You can call it a snake if you want but do not expect anyone with an above average IQ to agree with you. It is what it is.

In what realm of American life is if deemed unlawful to call someone by the choice of a name? If Trump was to be called say a Russian asset is that illegal? If you call out to your husband and say hey assh**e or your wife by saying hey bit*h is that illegal? But calling a mental person fake name William instead of their real name Winona can get you fired? And this is why we are here. Wow.. Not name but pronoun. Are you on crack?


I could be wrong but I think the poster you’re replying to is talking about how ridiculous it is that a person get fired over this and where the line is drawn because an argument could have been made that a leftist calling Trump a “Russian Asset” should also lead to that hypothetical leftist being fired if Trump made a big to do and told whoever the leftist worked for that he didn’t identify as that. IOW- one is just as ridiculous as the other.

Well this may be the case. Give general a little time and they will falter just like every company that tries to go woke.

Why the hell would any company risk anything like this. There is never enough reasons to play that game. Honestly, I hope that guy does some damage to the company for that stupidity of firing him. Bowing down to stupid pronoun stuff.

If everything he said is true, F Generac and I have a Generac hooked to my house. However, there are always two sides to the story (I'm not a SFP alter) and I would like to hear the other side before jumping to conclusions.

As an almost Christian (Catholic, but close enough) I'm always suspect of people clinging to their Bible in an interview. Holding and reading a Bible on camera does not make you more or less of a Christian. I see it as a crutch that "somewhat" Christians use to help their argument when they don't really have one. Just my opinion.

Watching their imminent slide will be entertaining at the very least.

Generac is a trash product honestly

Was once an okay product but that ship has long sailed.
