As someone who identifies as a two I find the term "everyONE" to be hateful and non-inclusive.

It's not my job to walk on eggshells at all times worried that I may say something in total politeness that someone is offended by anyway.

luckily, theres an easy fix for addressing a crowd that is inclusive of all: Welcome, everyone.

Uh, excuse me, every ONE? I identify as having a split personality (one of which has dissociative identity disorder and is two more personalities) possessed by the spirit of an ancient Aztec priest. Calling me a "one" is ignorant and derogatory to my uniqueness.
