Shop Truths, Phrases, Tales; and Outright Lies

Herd, Flock, Gaggle, Pack, Congress, School, Swarm, Hive, ETC. each of these words are already tightly associated with how we describe several groups or the assemblage of various beings and species. We break down our age groups by classing ourselves with words like Boomers, Xer's, millennials, gen Z, and so forth. When it comes to political persuasions terms like, Left, Right, Moderate, Progressive, Conservative, Liberal, Libertarian, often wind up with secondary descriptive words such as Radical, Socialist, Communist, Ultra, and more. I won't even attempt to understand the latest movement of describing genders with the whole pronoun thing, likewise I will refrain from delving into how people of all races colors creeds and religions often use words to describe persons not of the same volition as they are, Heck, while growing up some kids learned about some of my family's ancestry tagged me as half breed, it made me the cool kid though amongst my peers. For them to actually have a kid in their midst who had some native American blood was to them something of a status symbol. Don't mess with us or the Comanche will stomp your butt. or you can't beat us at this game because the Cherokee knows strategies you've never heard of. While in the Army one of the guys who was in my platoon once called me an Apple, He said I was red on the outside but white on the inside I don't remember why or what brought it up though.
Now when it comes to adding a vernacular to persons we think of as thin skinned, snowflake has become the term often used, to make this plural, the word snowflakes is used, however this seems to be a little under descriptive when portraying the derogative nature in describing a bunch of thin-skinned persons, as not being offensive enough to describe them. I'm sure someone will come up with the appropriate negative integer to tag on the label. Once this happens the word snowflake will become the next descriptive to be stricken from group speak.

All the poor women called Karen Oh and yes it is correct to use gender. apparently there are now 300 genders and that we should take into consideration a persons choice to be non binary, yeah but the science does not add up. We come from 2 chromosomes 1 male 1 female so yes you could get a she, he or he, she but not 300 variants. if they don't want to be considered male or female then they have to accept that they cant change DNA, guess what no male or female chromosome = no baby. What a person chooses to be or considers themselves as is entirely up to them, that's the great thing about living in a free society. I am getting a tad annoyed that by building an all inclusive society they have decided to exclude those who are binary and disagree with their doctoring. That is not being inclusive. When did education become so limp.

MeJasonT! Long time no see, I'd wondered about not seeing you pop up lately.

It'll be a cold day you know where before any of the 300 (as of 08:39 Central Daylight Time) will convince me to address them any fraction out of my perception, other than 'it'. There 2 genders, hence 2 groups of applicable labels. Nature allows certain mix-ups, just as in any mass produced item. The predominate feature is what it is.
To demand equality or considerations of any type is void when somebody adopts outsider. It is now 08:45, I'll bet 28 more classifications exist.
