    How do you feel about “James Vance, who identifies as JD”? It’s a mildly odd but not really disrespectful thing to call him, but I bet people who make dumb attack helicopter jokes will lose their shit over it.

      I personally do not have a problem with people identifying as whatever they want to be identified by; be it pronouns, nicknames, or “attack helicopters”.

      I find it sad though that people make a deal out of this sort of thing at all. We’re supposed to be an intelligent and civilized society; and we have these people who act like spoiled children about so many stupid (to me) things. Anyway…
