//pronoun & syntax neutralizer for word replacer II
//Max Schaffer (2019) with Weston Renoud (2016)

//this remains very much a work in progress, looking for more people to expand this and add more language support!

//ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
//Created by merging my work in 2019 with that of Weston Renoud (wrenoud)'s 2016 neutral_pronouns.json, who's work
//was really just all around better and cleaner than mine
//Thank you, Weston, for caring about this, it means a lot :) You helped me get off the ground here as I struggled
//to understand how regex works and fix my crappy functons.

//And a bit thank you to Word Replacer's team who made this possible for people without full coding backgrounds


//INTRO
//The goal behind pushing the project forward is not simply to make the internet a more inclusive space, it is
//to research what an inclusive experience can do for people on the internet--how it alters perception, changes
//interpretation, and makes a usually binary space (of 0s and 1s) less binary (of course, using binary operations).
//It is a way, at least personally, to see how nuetralizers might aid in combating dysphoria, and may help break
//assumptions of gender that can be harmful to the progess of equality online.

//HOW TO USE
//Install Word Replacer II and go to "settings"
//copy and paste this code (beginning from the first bracket to the last) into Word Replacer's input box,
//click "import"
//enable it from the button top right in your browser and enjoy!
