So weird to see a liberal content creator use that weird selective title case that became submissions with conservative posters. (You know, capitalizing the first letter of some words)

Edit: to clarify, I'm not trying to create drama or accuse anyone of anything. I'm just curious because I always associated this style of capitalization with certain discourse (or with German language)

It's usually to Brand™ a concept. Democrat Witch Hunt™ The Deep State™ Do Nothing Democrats™

It's one thing about Trump that I could say "he knows what he's doing." He's all about marketing, he knows how to create brands, he just doesn't know what to do with them after he creates them lol

They've co-opted capitalization??

You've got to be making this up, for real?

What did I just read.

This is a conservative thing? I always thought it was a cutesy thing, like from Winnie the Pooh.

It makes blocks of text easier to read for folks with ADHD.

Does it? I do not have ADHD AFAIK, but to me it looks a lot less readable, because I at first read it like the sentence ended somewhere around "Big of Me" (because new sentences generally begin with a capital letter), and because it is unclear what they are trying to convey when they capitalize those words: Is it a title? A trademark? Something else?
