but also where did the counterfeit pronouns meme come from

@typhlosion Someone on Twitter is making a blocklist for "obnoxious furries" and one of the things that can land you on the list is listing your pronouns in your bio, "especially counterfeit ones."

@witchfynder_finder that's incredble

also i googled it and found what sounds like a hilarious article that leads with:

"Warning: This video is doubleplusungood. Orwellian colleges trying to teach students made-up pronouns. You're not allowed to be disrespectful even if you don't know what people want to be called. Bizarre form of thought control unfolding."

the bizarre form of thought control known as "asking"

@typhlosion chomps came across some twitter blocklist thing that said they'd add anyone with "counterfeit pronouns" in their bio to the blocklist

@colon_three @CoronaCoreanici i hate that i immediately read that post to the tune of the transformers theme
