You are literally getting offended on someone's behalf at this very moment.

Which is even more ironic when you look at their name and realise they just joined a war of words.

Not on someone's behalf, but at someone who is defending a person they don't even know needs defending. Like, what the fuck do you think you gain by "correcting" pronouns for a John Smith?

It's all about the personal gain, none of it is altruistic. It's egocentric mania.

"Literally" not, I'm arguing for people to stop giving a shit about gender, especially about people who aren't and won't be a part of the discussion. It's asinine and vapid self-serving slop to "defend" someone who for all you know is a huge bigot? Like come on, you don't even know the person, why white-knight...
