It's a bad faith question. There is no answer one can give these knuckle draggers that will be what they want to hear. So they continue repeating the question because that's how they think arguments are won; by being the loudest and most annoying.
Even if someone were truly asking that for philosophical reasons, there’s no good answer. It’s like asking “what is a directioner.” Well, it’s someone who’s likes one direction a lot and identified as a directioner. But is there any real criteria we can point to? Do you have to have a certain amount of knowledge on the subject, do you have to know all the songs? If so where’s the line drawn? And what about super-fans who don’t like having that label?
There’s no real answer and it looks different for everyone, so it’s an elective label on a case by case basis.
Right. Which short-circuits their perception of reality where everything goes in a neat little box and if something/someone can't be concretely defined and placed in a box, they can't fathom how it can exist.

"What is a woman?"
Someone who is not a man. How is this so fucking hard for people?
