I'm in my usual position on this.  I don't understand why they are doing that, and I don't understand why anyone is upset that they are doing it.

I don't think anyone is upset, but it begs the question about what exactly does changing the rules of grammar supposed to accomplish. Does one disparity fix another disparity? Does this not qualify as racism itself? It's a sophomoric gesture to a deeper problem.
