Mods take this down if it's too close to JAQing off territory.

Are they meant to be used like any other set of pronouns? What's the possessive form?

I started off with Comrade/them as I was trying to keep a bit of opsec and was completely ignorant about gender. I added he/him after a while for several reasons. First I realized opsec is a near impossibility for me but also I wanted to try to own my cis hetero identity and ignorance openly. I have learned a lot from my time here but I think by showing that I am a comrade first and a him second it buys me a bit of a softer rebuke if I need reeducation.
