LNER apologises after staff said ‘good afternoon ladies and gentlemen’ https://mol.im/a/9574901 via http://dailym.ai/android
Apparently this non binary person felt excluded by the greeting because he uses a plural pronoun.
Instead of caving, the appropriate response should have been to tell the pretentious little prick where to get off and where to stick his pronouns.
Although I was a member of the RMT during my signalling days, I can’t say that I felt particularly included. Can’t think why…
An update shared by someone on the interwebs.
So, not just a narcissistic attention seeking bully, he is also a hypocrite. Well, I would never have seen that one coming.
Presumably they should have said ladies gentlemen and self obsessed attention seeking twats.
Sounds good to me.
These greetings are going to get very long.
Perhaps it should travel on it’s employer’s trains instead of the competition’s…

Yes, but not sure where it went. May be a WordPress thing.
Makes you wonder where all these wankers come from !!!
There was a time when gay rights was something to be fought for. Now though it’s about imposing their ideology on the rest of us. We’ll I’m not playing. He can fuck off. I am not crucifying the English language to pander to his pretentious pronouns.
Me neither LR.
Mostly collective delusion i think. Seem to be the problem with the net, the whole echo tank thing.
Fairly easy now to find people with similar delusions and complain about disaffection as a pressure group. And easy to convince the impressionable (about 80% of people in my experience), that we should do something about it.
Quite why we all have to pander to less than 1% of the population who almost universally do nothing to contribute to society and on fact seem to be invoking dangerous changes.
Not to sure why we pander as much as we do to another 50% or so of society that doesn’t contribute financially either, that doesn’t seem to have worked out too well either.
Try,”Oy, you lot, pay attention!”
If the self-defined non-binary person was unhappy about an element of the service provided, I would point out that he/she/it has the option not to patronise that service provider and to use a different form of transport. Decision time, ducky.
The self defined non binary person sent out a tweet at Christmas referring to… wait for it… ladies and gentlemen.
This woke nonsense needs to stop.
I’m sure one form of address the wokeists would approve of in this situation would be “Good morning, fellow travellers”.
