Total Autonomy: Your body, your transition, your gender, your pronouns, your rules. No "gatekeeping" or "truscum" allowed.
Mutual Aid: We protect each other. DIY-HRT, illegal tips, and safety are encouraged.
Anti-Statism: The state seeks to control our lives, often at our expense. It is an oppressor and an enemy.
Intersectionality or Death: If your trans anarchy isn't black, brown, disabled, and/or neurodivergent inclusive, it isn't anarchy.

I'd be willing to bet money it wasn't even on purpose and they just used it that way because it's completely normal English usage that's been that way for decades. Just like I used it in that previous sentence.
They aren't happy someone noticed. They're happy someone pointed out something that can take credit for.
It was so inclusive of you to refer to a nebulous conglomeration of capitalist pigs as they ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ ๐ธ ๐ท
That's not a singular they. The Coca Cola corporation, and the subset involved in writing shooting editing and approving any ad they make, is many people.
Then why did you use "is" instead of "are"?
IMO because it is (a corporation) in the singular, but it does (by the work of its employees) in the plural.
Maybe that makes no sense. IDK. ๐
