    Don’t make assumptions about my assumption. In a thread about US politics and a US President, WE USE PRONOUNS to avoid having to repeat all the desciptors we would need to be exactly correct.

    Join us.

    “Pronouns are words used to replace nouns in sentences, helping to avoid repetition.”

    If you argue over pronouns, NO topic can be discussed. That’s why civil people never, ever argue with pronouns. Be one of us! ONE OF US ONE OF US.

    There’s no world were arguing with pronouns helps anybody, anywhere, at any time, as nothing else could be discussed.

    Learn! YOU CAN DO IT

    I could take apart each of your pronouns, but I don’t, because look what happens when you challenge pronouns that have nothing to do with you.

      Glad you’ve finally admitted it was an assumption 👍

      We can finally put this whole ordeal to bed.

        There you go, making assumptions that I even had an assumption.

        Pronouns are hard, you’ll get it someday! I believe in you (singular).

        Did you know that pronouns refer to the last referenced subject unless dictated otherwise, changing the subject? IT’S TRUE.

        So, figure it out.

        There’s a thread about sports teams, The Jerks vs The Ignorants.

        Someone in the thread says “your team sucks”

        Are they referring to you (singular)? Or the subject of the thread (those two teams)?

        You… “Not MY team, I hate sports!”
