I use it/its in spaces where I do not plan on engaging with people as individuals

I see your pronouns on Beehaw are it/its, can you clarify whether you intend on engaging with people as individuals and if not how that shapes how you treat them?

I do not read usernames and take messages as they are without looking for additional context. This space is not a chat room and there is no reason to treat it as such. It is a forum.

Makes video about the importance of pronouns. Refuses to read names or pronouns of the people that interact on the platform where they posted said video.

Hmmm...

I never said anything about pronouns

The first word you submitted in this comment chain is literally "pronouns" and the topic of conversation is your stated choice of "it/its" pronouns and implication that you use them when not engaging with individuals, like on this board.

I think they meant that they didn't say anything about not reading pronouns, just usernames.

I think this person is just very very very bad at communicating details.
