Did laserpig ever make the corrections video he promised to make when r/badhistory tore his T-34 video to pieces, or is he still pretending he's "just an entertainer"?

Depends on the exact word. For example, person is grammatically female, even if the actual person isn't. Or, a lot of times you can make a different form, but you don't strictly need to.

It's actually somewhat of an ongoing debate in places WRT professions: declaring whatever the current word is to be gender neutral, or having mandatory versions for both male and female (German /inen approach).

I assume he's aligning the pronouns to the gender of the noun, rather than the person. "Susie is a great worker, he's very efficient" kind of stuff.

It gets so much easier if you pay for premium, though!

That's... honestly less surprising than I would have expected.
