Yeah, kinda true, kinda whataboutism... If calling other people by their chosen pronouns being their biggest problem, is your biggest problem... I'm envious of their life and your life... Thanks, I'm fine, lets not trade lives.
Hmm. >80% of Lemmy voters don't like the same logic applied in reverse? Is that being hypocrites, or am I missing something?
The problem with your "logic" is that Green never said it was his biggest problem. And if you can find me someone who does say that people not calling others by their correct pronouns is their biggest problem, I would be very surprised.
I would suggest to you that if this was John Green's biggest problem, he wouldn't make a glib tweet about it.
Hmmh. But I mean even that also applies in reverse. Also the "pronouns people" don't say it's their biggest problem. At least the ones I've ever met. So Greens post has the same logical shortcomings as I have.
Jordan Peterson's fans sure seem to think it's a top priority.
