jerry pdx "They" is now considered a singular pronoun, at least according to Miriam Webster: https://pizzokristen.medium.com/they-is-now-officially-a-singular-pronoun-so-use-it-e2a4071c621f The writer of this article is named Kristen Pizzo, probably one of those socially maladjusted females that blames men for all her issues in life, and she claims that "they" has always been a singular pronoun and Miriam Webster is simply affirming it. No Kristen, it was not. Just because a tiny group of zealots used it that way for a while doesn't mean you can rewrite the rules of grammar. I understand that that grammar can evolve over time but that's when it happens organically and naturally, when it's shoehorned in by a tiny number of radical zealots who are forcing their evil immoral beliefs on all of us, it shouldn't allowed.
I am a dissident journalist, whose work has been published in dozens of daily newspapers, magazines, and journals in English, German, and Swedish, under my own name and many pseudonyms. While living in internal exile in New York, where I am whitelisted, I maintain NSU/The Wyatt Earp Journalism Bureau and some eight other blogs (some are distinctive but occasional venues, while others are mirrors), and also write for stout-hearted men such as Peter Brimelow and Jared Taylor.

More accurate would be both of them doing tag team on an Uncle Sam
representation.
