Edit: I also just got banned for apparently being a troll. Me. Not the person they believe to be a dragon though.

    That’s heavily ironic. Considering drag has actual comments about this,

    Because drag uses first person neopronouns. Drag’s drag/dragself pronouns are person independent. They’re inflected and conjugated the same way in all grammatical persons. They represent drag’s identity as a dragon rider.

    Drag rides dragons and also “rides” dragons

    Drag has made REPEATED comments that ‘rider’ is to be interpreted in both senses.

    Dragonfucker is also the literal fucking handle, genius. Jesus H. Christ.

    And that’s not drag’s pronouns,

    I’m not talking about their pronouns, though I guess that’s a distinction that requires a level of literacy several grades higher than you’re operating at; I’ve explicitly stated this multiple times in this thread.

      Why. Do you. Caaaaaare?

      You don’t seem to get it. You don’t question someone’s identity. Period. No ands, ifs or buts. You do not get to decide if someone’s identify is valid. You are an asshole and you are not an ally for doing it.

      This is why trans people (at least the ones I know) unironically tend to avoid hanging out with cis people. Cis people think they’re entitled to telling other people how they can identify.

        I’m sorry for thinking dragons don’t exist. I’ll go for a struggle session at the first opportunity to repent of my sins.

        Literally like talking to children. Throwing a fit over not being called a dragon. Insane.

          Christ, you’d lose your mind if you ever stepped into the furry community. The therians would give you an aneurysm.

          Once again, you do not get to say whether or not someone’s identity is valid. It doesn’t matter how “real” you perceive their identity to be. You are a bigot for doing so.

          Also, you can literally just block drag and pretend drag doesn’t exist. Just don’t respond to drag. Don’t talk to drag. Don’t refer to drag. You could just do that, but instead you’ve decided to be a bigot.

            Could have pretended that people who say “Dragons aren’t real” don’t exist, but the admin response was instead to ban folk for it. Could’ve done that, but instead, you’ve decided to approve of acting like literal children.

        So my drunk Republican uncle is actually an attack helicopter? I thought that was just political rhetoric and poor taste hyperbole, but I suppose I should respect his identity and also try to limit my thermal signature and seek heavy cover from above.

          If he really and truly does, then yes, especially when he’s posting on blahaj.

      clearly in the context of those objecting to the admins backing dragonfucking as an identity.

      Someone can call themselves the Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea. That doesn’t make them a democracy. And drag literally told you what to call them. Stop grasping at new ways to be wrong. It’s getting ridiculous.

        So drag isn’t a dragon rider, is what you’re saying?
