"it's"
Sigh
Judging by the picture, it’s a cat.
My cat likes pizza so I'm going to agree.
OP, the correct gender neutral pronoun is "they", even if we talk about one person.
But generally a very solid meme!
this is definitely not oc, dates back to at least aug 2020. this is also showcased by OP calling the teacher “she” while OOP hit em with the ol’ “it”
Object Oriented Programmer?

Thanks for context!
Which is always fun to point out to the bigots who lose their shit about "they/them" pronoun stuff.
grammatical animacy (“it” vs “they”) aside, its not as easy to get it/it’s right as some commenters suggest. the authors of the constitution got it wrong too. the error has it’s own few decades of historical precedent. 🙃
They could barely agree on how words were spelled back then.
turns out codifying one single spelling for an incredibly diverse language and forcing all of its speakers to stick to it was slightly more difficult than founding a new genre of government
(edit this was meant to be a funny silly little comment not biting satire so you all can stop dogpiling me now you make this website miserable)
hello you are literally shoving words in my mouth. i said i like pancakes and you said “oh so you hate waffles?” stop it.
i never said democracy started in the US. the US was the first country to adopt a federal constitutional republic, thank you very much. 😪😪😪

A state is an it, not a they.
i have edited my first sentence to clarify your misunderstanding 👍
Ah, yes that's helpful. Apologies for the misunderstanding.
