    Nah, the drag stuff is fucked up. Misgendering people is a shitty thing to do regardless of the person being misgendered.

      You’re making it sound like it’s choosing to misgender her, it’s not. It’s not fucked up because it’s a text extruder making a mistake, there’s no good or bad intention here. It’s shitty because the current state of glorified hallucinating autocorrects is shitty, but not because evil Grok is choosing to do anything.

            If it had accidentally said something heinously racist about somebody, would you laugh and say “haha well maybe it’s not wrong!” because that’s what the comments in this post are saying.

              I’m having hard time imagining what sort of stuff it would’ve said in this imaginary scenario

                You’re really having a hard time imagining Grok saying some racist right wing shit? Do you not remember all the shit about Obama not being American?

                  If it said JD Vance actually a black man from Malaysia I’d find that pretty funny too, yeah

                    That’s not comparable and you know it.

                    But I remember your name now, you were one of those sexists raging against women. Not surprised you’re also pro-misgendering people. Oh and I can see you’ve been banned elsewhere for transphobia too. Not wasting any more time replying to you.

      Drag isn’t the same as trans. It’s a character. There’s a huge difference. Drag is performative. Trans is just about being honest.

      Misgendering a trans person, at least intentionally, is an asshole move. Misgendering a drag queen? Please. If you are unsure, they will let you know when you’ve crossed a line.

        Saying she isn’t a woman but is actually a man dressing up is misgendering her. Don’t misgender people at all, full stop; It’s not funny and it only perpetuates sexism.

        Likewise transphobes attack cis women all the time for not being their idea of what a woman looks like.

      These are the people who think homophobia is cool when they don’t like the person. They’d be racists in the 1960s saying “it’s okay to call them that when they are rude to me.”
