    Why are you referring to drag in the third person???

    Just kidding! Drag understands that “you” is a second person pronoun. But you see, it uses the same conjugation as they/them pronouns. Since you think conjugation determines person, you’re forced to think that either they/them is second person or you is third person.

    Drag doesn’t have to worry about that, because drag knows there’s no relationship between conjugation and person. And now you do too.
