What they meant is "freedom to say slurs", not "freedom of LGBT books in school libraries"

  Being trans, I feel this so much. On a side note, it was interesting after Trump was elected where some of my co-workers wanted to use old pronouns after some laws changed _in meetings_ and I realized the only thing stopping them was the awkwardness it would have been for _them_ in that situation

    In the Before Times, I thought that asking Americans to mind pronouns would never work -- not because they were mean, but because it would require the average American to learn what a "pronoun" was. Of course, it turned out that the average American had no problem learning what a pronoun was if it gave them the opportunity to be mean. Sigh.

      There was a certain dark humor from all the people proudly proclaiming to be "against pronouns".
