      OP, the correct gender neutral pronoun is “they”, even if we talk about one person.

      But generally a very solid meme!

        this is definitely not oc, dates back to at least aug 2020. this is also showcased by OP calling the teacher “she” while OOP hit em with the ol’ “it”

        Which is always fun to point out to the bigots who lose their shit about “they/them” pronoun stuff.

      grammatical animacy (“it” vs “they”) aside, its not as easy to get it/it’s right as some commenters suggest. the authors of the constitution got it wrong too. the error has it’s own few decades of historical precedent. 🙃

      No State shall, without the Consent of the Congress, lay any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it’s inspection Laws: and the net Produce of all Duties and Imposts, laid by any State on Imports or Exports, shall be for the Use of the Treasury of the United States; and all such Laws shall be subject to the Revision and Controul of the Congress.

        They could barely agree on how words were spelled back then.

          turns out codifying one single spelling for an incredibly diverse language and forcing all of its speakers to stick to it was slightly more difficult than founding a new genre of government

              “Democracy did not start in the US.”

              hello you are literally shoving words in my mouth. i said i like pancakes and you said “oh so you hate waffles?” stop it.

              i never said democracy started in the US. the US was the first country to adopt a federal constitutional republic, thank you very much. 😪😪😪
