Moonbat Educrat Cancels Capital Letters

It is getting so hard to find new things to cancel in the name of political correctness that a Canadian educrat has denounced the use of capital letters.

Dr Linda Manyguns, PhD, is Associate Vice President of Indigenization and Decolonization at Mount Royal University in Calgary. Despite the excellent name, she is a moonbat:

Indigenous people have been actively engaged in a multidimensional struggle for equality, since time immemorial. we strive for historical-cultural recognition and acknowledgment of colonial oppression that persistently devalues the diversity of our unique cultural heritages.

Don’t bother calling in a copy editor. It is by design that the only word she will capitalize is “indigenous.”

the goal of equity, diversity and inclusion of all people is synonymous with the interests of Indigenous people. we support and expand the goal of equality and inclusion to all forms of life and all people. we … reject the symbols of hierarchy wherever they are found and do not use capital letters except to acknowledge the Indigenous struggle for recognition.

Note that despite her rejection of hierarchy, she promotes a linguistic hierarchy whereby the word “indigenous” has higher status than any other word.

No doubt this whacky lady who fails to present written English properly brings in a healthy six figures from the taxpayer-subsidized education establishment, which pays her to squawk about how oppressed she imagines herself to be.

On a tip from Brian Brandt. Hat tip: Legal Insurrection.
