Yes, that's how English works, everyone has pronouns unless you want to use their name every time they're referred to.
I have a friend who didn't use pronouns when talking to or about others for a while. Turns out they were struggling with their own gender identity and they started using pronouns again once they figured themselves out.
This was a heartwarming and satisfying story arc.
The internet is so stupid that the people who are being stupid and the people who are being hilarious cannot form a legible Venn diagram
"Asking for pronouns is woke, therefore pronouns are EVIL!"
I'd like for them to stop using them altogether and only use names just to "trigger" us.
