University of North Carolina Creates Language Guide That Erases 'Man' And 'Mother' From Existence
Summit News ^ | 06/30/2023 | Steve Watson

The University of North Carolina (UNC) has shared an ‘inclusive’ language guide, laying out guidelines for what students and staff are and are not allowed to say.

The guide essentially wipes the word ‘man’ out of existence, and discourages the use of the words ‘mother’ and ‘father’.

A statement from the university claims “Carolina is committed to creating an inclusive and equitable learning environment for every Tar Heel. To fully represent the diversity of our students, faculty, staff and everyone in our community, it is important to use language that supports these values.”

It continues, “This inclusive language guide can act as a starting point for communicating in a way that supports a diverse and welcoming community.”

Here’s what’s not allowed:

Any word with ‘man’ in it is consigned to the dustbin.

Furthermore… Don’t say ‘mom’, say ‘guardian’.

And don’t say ‘poor’, say “people whose incomes are below the federal poverty threshold.”

There are a lot of rules here…

Remember that there is also romantic orientation as well, except is you’re ‘aromantic’:

This lunacy is gong on all over the country and it’s spilling out of woke education into the real world.

Since every person on earth has a mother and a father...how do you get rid of these all inclusive words.

If gender is done away with, does that make rape obsolete?

They forgot:
Professor- someone that teaches because they are incapable of doing what they teach.

Modern “ universities “ should be treated as insane asylums.

Why does any rational human being give money to these collective fools ?

It would be simpler just to get rid of the University of North Carolina’s academic accreditation.

Yes.

Those who can, do,
those who cannot, teach
those who cannot teach,
teach the teachers.
Those who cannot teach the
teachers
become the deans.

Long ago, I remember when the “janitor” became the “sanitation engineer.”

Now? Talk about language on steroids.

They’ll do it.

In the old Soviet Union the government declared the works of dissidents to be unacceptable and sent agents out to locate every mention in books in all the libraries and they physically cut the names out with razor knives. Now they’d delete the computer information.

I just saw a news story yesterday that said the Canadian polluted air stuck over the northern US was harmful including to “pregnant people.” Not women.

Media staffs seem to get toilet trained faster than puppies. Maybe it’s the memory of the newspapers upon which to urinate.

When I worked at a gas station in the 70’s, we called ourselves “Petroleum transfer engineers”. We were pumping gas.

Let’s see all the faggot, lesbo and tranny professors disagree. There are no real men at UNC. The above mentioned need to be driven from American society by any means.

Yet no concerns for gender neutrality when the masculine denotes a negative. MAN made climate change. hit MAN, klansMAN, bag MAN, mad MAN. As if there’s a lameass, transparent attempt at subtle MANipulation (no pun intended)
