California professor refuses to use ‘chief’ in her CEO title, says it offends ‘Indigenous colleagues'

Even the libs over at Young Turks are recognizing how asinine the Holy Church Of Woke has become, i.e., the lack of women in manufacturing is because of the first syllable in "manufacturing."

You can't make this shit up.

 
keep it up...the woke crazies are still in charge of the Dems as long as the Progs rule
 
Link: California professor refuses to use ‘chief’ in her CEO title, says it offends ‘Indigenous colleagues'

Dr. Dori Tunstall, faculty member of the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) Extended Studies programs, refuses to use the word “chief,” claiming that it is offensive to Native Americans...

Because of course it is. And manhole cover is offensive to women. Master bedroom is triggering blacks. Merit = white supremacy. "Pedophile" is offensive to 'minor attracted people.' Use "Birthing People" so as not to offend chronic narcissists or the mentally ill. Because Dylan Mulvaney can totally get knocked up, yo.

...However, according to Liberty University linguistics professor Dr. Jaeshil Kim: “The word chief comes from the Old French chef, meaning ‘leader’ or ‘head,’” and “[t]he term was applied to Native American leaders by European settlers, aligning with their existing use of the word for leaders in other societies.”

She concluded that the term “Chief Executive Officer” signifies “its original meaning of leadership and authority without direct reference to Native American cultures.”...


Dr. Kim is pissing into the wind. The cult will not be persuaded. It is my opinion that the left's genuflecting at the altar of the Holy Church Of Woke greatly helped to swing the pendulum the other way in November.
I don't think it's offensive and I doubt native Americans find it offensive but if she wishes to drop that title from her name, I got no problem with that.
 
Yeah, no sense in being sensitive to other groups, right??
I highly doubt any Native American tribal leader has even thought about what some egghead, self-important, tenured professor says in California.
 
I was a CA. professor. Taught at the college level, but I didn't need to make an ass out of myself to prove I was "important". Virtue signaling is a disease for which there is no cure, much like TDS.
Of course you were. And I was the Sergeant Major of the Army. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
 
LOL. Chief has nothing to do with Native Americans... LOL
 
It makes more sense to mock and ridicule pathetic snowflakes who won't grow the eff up.

Whining about what someone else does with her own title, hurting nobody.

But calling someone else a snowflake. Got it. Right wingers get triggered by the dumbest shit.

Whining about another that is hurting nobody is also hurting nobody... but calling them triggered? Got it.
