The University of North Carolina is in the limelight, but not for their basketball team. They’ve decided to play language police with an ‘inclusive language guide’. It aims to eliminate certain words from our vocabulary, like ‘man’ in ‘chairman’ or even ‘mother’ and ‘father’. Sounds inclusive? Not quite. Critics see this as a blatant disregard for freedom of speech and an attack on cherished traditions. Our words define our society, and their natural evolution reflects cultural shifts. But when it’s forced upon us by educational institutions, it smells less like progress and more like thought control. That’s not inclusivity; that’s an attempt to shape how we think, speak, and express ourselves.
