I found this quote supposedly attributed to Mozilla, as far as I can tell this is the whole issue, everything else is chuds on X running with it.
Kit (he/she/they/them/it) is the user’s constant companion. Wherever they choose to roam, Kit will accompany and guide them with clever, playful encouragement and support — giving the user the confidence to run free.
whilst it is legitimate, it misrepresents the purpose of both kit and branding guidelines: kit is a feature meant to invoke feelings; not a character having made a decision about its gender
Where do y’all take info on pronouns?
Haven’t seen anything in the official announcement: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/meet-kit/
Okay, don’t search for the word “binary”. Search for the word “they”.
Yes, really.
That’s all it took for people like this guy to freak out over wokeness gone amok and Mozilla is coming for your children.
Ah so it’s just more culture war bullshit from perpetually outraged rightoids and grifters. Nothing new then.
Yeah I noticed that too.
