I specifically referenced an incident but there were others. Did you finish reading that sentence?

That was in the nineties? I mean infighting specifically due to that 2S change. Also, chill.

I absolutely haven't heard anyone infighting about this thing I'm hearing about for the first time, and also am referencing other times we added things and people engaged in infighting, since last behavior can often help predict future.

I take issue with putting a specific group first, intentionally, and can tell you (now that I've had a day) that the first indigenous person I asked about it said that it was "bullshit" because it feels "placating" to persons historically unrepresented and oppressed. Which does support my concern even if n=1.

For clarity, he is neither cisgender, nor heteronormative in any fashion.
