firstly, OPs pic and most other memes about pronouns aren't about telling others your pronouns
secondly, if you want people to know your pronouns, you can put them in your username or bio like you did
frankly idc about pronouns, so getting insubstancial memes like this shoved in my face simply annoys me. but somehow leftists are surprised that many people are annoyed and fed up by constantly being confronted with things they don't care about and are thus developing a disliking for it
I mean at that point it's not really any different from other memes, right? Something that a lot of us know about and find amusing but gets quite repetitive. It doesn't make me me dislike it though.
Insubstantial memes do seem rather popular in 196 btw.
how is OP's pic amusing? it's just thinly veiled referencing leftist ideology without a punchline or joke
if they contain a joke and have the potential to be funny, that's fine.
but yeah there are many others that are just random text with no punchline and they're just as annoying. the difference is that they aren't associated with an ideology/politics
Depends on who you ask, for some it's funny for some it's not. Also how are pronouns politics lol, just because right wingers are generally assholes that refuse to use the proper ones doesn't mean that pronouns are politics. Also, you are currently pushing an ideology of your own.
