GEICO, the second-largest vehicle insurance underwriter in the US, has decided it will no longer cover Tesla Cybertrucks. The company is terminating current Cybertruck policies and says the truck “doesn’t meet our underwriting guidelines.”

      “their” is shorter than “his or her”

      (Even if you don’t care about gender inclusiveness, they is just more convenient)

        If you’re correcting, sincerely, then good job.

        If you’re trolling… also, good job.

        Either way 👍

          I wasn’t strictly meaning to correct so much as point out a reason why it’s more concise. I value the inclusive motivation too, if that was hard to tell; I just think there is another reason even if you don’t care about inclusion.

          It seems a lot of people are actively opposed to it though, not sure why. I’m just asking questions, you know?

          😉

            I’ll bet a lot of times people just start typing “he” and tack on “or she” when they catch themselves.
