So that's a "yes, I am going to obstinately pretend that making literally the whole world speak about something does not mean anything and can't even be called an achievement"?

Aww. It's gonna be hard to get anyone to think anything you say matters when you don't believe that speaking doesn't mean anything. ;>

Still talking about it.

Or are you pretending like making people speak about a thing — globally — doesn't mean anything?

"Making people all over the world speak about something doesn't mean anything", he said

You're a wellspring of irony, my little muppet.

Aside from just being objectively wrong in whatever garbage you we're going on about earlier, that is.

Back up my stance of "you're talking about it" when you start your comment with "I'm talking about it"?

I really don't see a reason to "back that up" any further. You did all for me.

I agree.

"Planet's burning up, another genocide, fascism on the rise... ugh... where are the funny memes."

Apathy is the greatest tool of the oppressor.

I don't think that's too ambiguous. I read it exactly the way you put it.

Basically "idk if their weapons work but it doesn't matter they don't need them" so if they don't need the swords one would assume no-one is fighting them and just running like you said.

So I'm just here to second you.

I think it's less of a problem with gendered nouns and much more of a problem with personal pronouns.

Inanimate objects rarely change their gender identity, so those translations should be more or less fine.

However for instance translating Finnish to English, you have to translate second person gender-neutral pronouns as he/she, so when translating, you have to make an assumption, or translate is as the clunky both versions "masculine/feminine" with a slash which sort of breaks the flow of the text.
