Description
Grammatical errors and orthographic mishaps are often played for laughs, but this subtle sanctioning by the sticklerocracy can have real social consequences too. Jessica Flanigan argues that grammarianism often maintains existing hierarchies and imposes arbitrary barriers to knowledge production and innovation.
