it represents itself as a sneptaur i don't think you have to worry about dehumanizing it
Precisely! I can tell when someone is using a pronoun to be disparaging and when someone is just reacting to their perception. That's part of why any pronouns are fine for me, I think it's more useful to encourage people to gender me reflexively so I can hear how I am perceived directly.
What's weird to me is how many people still insist on their humanity when calling the human species a mixed bag feels a bit too generous.
