Here’s my opinion of how to try a bagel in its most classic format, me being someone from the northeast but not New York. Everything bagel, cut in half (like a sandwich), toasted, smear each open face with plain cream cheese (can substitute for veggie cream cheese), eat each half separately.

Otherwise it’s just a different shape of bread like ciabatta or baguette. Personally I don’t love bagels for sandwiches because they tend to not hold up structurally, but bagel is my favorite context for cream cheese.

Again?!

Who’s going to post that 2 nickels meme?

The USA first needs a serious left wing party for that to be possible.

Dude, we’re probably the only 2 people on earth who are going to see this conversation, how am I trying to force anything? The responses you’ve given have made you seem like a very close minded person. If you don’t agree with what I’m saying that’s fine, but if you’re going to engage in a debate then please address the things I’m actually saying. Otherwise I’m just going to stop responding.

I’m not obligating anything or asking for any accommodation. I’m trying to make an argument for a better system than what we currently have, whereas you just seem to be saying ‘change is stupid’.

It’s not that contrived to have two subjects in a sentence be a single person and a group of people. I have personally been in situations where someone was confused about the use of the singular them. Obviously it’s possible to understand in most circumstances, but why not make it easier? Especially when it’s a simple solution that also stops most of the misgendering people experience.

Are we not intelligent enough to make language whatever we want it to be? We actually do that all the time with political correctness and ungendering words like policeman.

You could use a similar argument to stop literally any innovation. Things don’t have to be an issue to be able to be improved.

I understand that, my point is that they’re not useful. Or at least it would be much more useful to have a singular and a plural pronoun, because that distinction is more relevant to modern speech.

More like…

Using gendered singular pronouns: kinda weird and pointless

Using they/them for both singular and plural: possibly confusing

Making a non-gendered singular pronoun: reduces confusion

So that means that’s the best way for it to work in the future? Having a distinction between singular and plural is useful, so why *not adjust our language and repurpose the not useful gendered pronouns?

I’ve been arguing this for a while and I don’t understand why so many people are against it.

He/Him: okay i guess

She/Her: weird change and doesn’t fit previous convention

He/Her: actually builds off of each other

That and while the distinction between Male and Female pronouns is kind of pointless, having a distinction between singular and plural pronouns is actually a helpful feature.

I was about to question the “zionist left” part and decided to do a quick search. Apparently it’s real, one of the largest parties in Israel is the “Labor Zionist” party which actually holds certain leftist values like proletarian* ownership of the means of production. Bibi is a right wing liberal all the way and his party reflects that, just to be clear. But it shows how any movement can be devastating and harmful when it adopts a mentality of exclusion. In the case of the LZ party, it’s the *Jewish proletariat that they want to build socialism for, while keeping an underclass of gentiles. So once again racism and hierarchies are here to ruin your movement.

This one’s actually pronounced with a soft j

Just proof of the necessity of that little /s

Oh and what dangers are civilians in Gaza facing?

The feature I really want is to be able to filter my suggested videos by length.
