Interesting take. I haven’t seen any poor behavior from drag at any point and, unless I’ve missed something, drag seems to be a fine and well-contributing member of this community.
Grail, on the other hand, I have no doubt is a troll. Aside from their consistent behavior, they were heavily involved with mindtraveller (if anyone remembers them) who was also very clearly a troll. Granted, they may also just be heavily narcissistic. Regardless, I refuse to entertain claims of divinity. The assertion that someone must be referred to as a god/goddess/superior being of any form is an assault on my and others’ freedom of religion, spirituality, or lack thereof.
No individual is inherently above or below another, nor will I be intimidated into referring to them as such - be it by them, mods, or anyone else.
I don’t really see this as encouraging suicide. Drag explicitly stated that another option is preferable. Could’ve been worded better, sure, and it’s in very poor taste, but… I cant say I disagree…
Banning the user above for anti-trans rhetoric. Explaining the position here because we’re consistently repeating ourselves and it’s exhausting.
Drag’s user name is Dragon Rider. I would assume the neopronoun “Drag” is a shortening of Dragon but even if not bare with me… Pronouns exist to replace nouns. Our name (or in this case online, our username) is a proper noun. People rejecting pronouns in favor of just using their name isn’t new. I don’t know why the community is so upset about this. You are well within your opinion to not like people. Whatever, you’re allowed to hate Drag as a person. Don’t hate Drag because you dislike Drag’s pronouns.
Even then, why tf do you care that someone wants to be called Drag? I don’t care about alternate account’s NAMES. We can’t prove whether or not Drag has alt accounts and even then, why do you care? Care about Drag’s actions.
The more I end up running into Grail the more they give me narcissist vibes. Especially their stance that “critising narcissism is actually a conservative view point”
Not to mention the amount of times they seem to find excuses to link back to their blog articles.
I’m not sure who mindtraveler was/is but looking at Grail’s recent comment history, yeah I hadn’t seen the worst of their behavior as we’re, in general, in different parts of the site.

idk I can respect drag’s neopronoun but I’d imagine drag would get much less hate if it wasn’t for shit like this

Fuck, hadn’t seen stuff like that. Opinion changed.
you, you’re doing it right. behavior is not an excuse to knowingly misgender someone. everything else in this thread is beside the point.
Wanting to fuck dragons isn’t a gender. It’s somewhere between kink and orientation.
