CONSERVATIVES: Corporations are people and deserve free-speech rights

CORPORATIONS: Trans people exist

CONSERVATIVES: Not like that

Recognizing that corporations are people, I would like them to share their pronouns.

I’m serious! I write about businesses a lot, and I have long been torn whether to refer to a corporation as an “it“ or as a “they/them.“

@patrickgillam @charliejane I want to say this is context sensitive? When a company acts, they. If the legal portion of the company is acted upon, it. If the personnel are primarily impacted upon, they (again).
Just an off-the-cuff thought.

The two corporate genders: "Inc" and "LLC"

@woozle @patrickgillam @charliejane in America. In England, they have Plc; Germans have AG; and so on.

Different languages handle gender differently, so that follows :D
