> Why was it necessary to bring in pronouns to this discussion? It seems like a truly irrelevant dog whistle specifically in order to offend the identity of those that are non-binary. ...your response to which is to liken me to a dog while crying bully, ascribing malicious intent and bemoaning lack of decorum on my part? As a wolf, I am deeply offended. What I was responding to was the arbitrary nature of content moderation on Reddit. Substance doesn't matter, posturing does. I said nothing about the non-binary demographic-- you did that in trying to spin my comment into HR Thunderdome. This is literally the problem that makes Reddit so toxic! |

Dog whistles are blown by humans. Arguably it implies the people you're trying to reach are dogs, but I don't think the analogy is intended to be taken that far.

Following up "you used the wrong pronoun. Reddit posts identify as "they,"" with "As a wolf, I am deeply offended" doesn't exactly reassure me of honest intentions.
