I don’t need to be wheedled or badgered for not being aware of the latest trend, or for bucking it. For example, I don’t do pronouns. I don’t care what people want to be called, it’s an imposition on me. This right here is enough to get you added to the list at Google, for example.

What if I want to just join a server to talk about old cars, or gardening or some other hobby in a casual fashion? I don't always want to see or hear about social issues or politic... and that goes for issues I agree and disagree with.
