Page has only been Elliot since December 1, 2020, but somehow in that short time, has managed to transform the past to suit a new identity.<\/p>\n<p>Daily Wire podcaster Michael Knowles wrote a lengthy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/knowles-are-the-oscars-guilty-of-deadnaming-a-2008-best-actress-nominee\">op-ed<\/a> exploring the contradictions and confusion surrounding the change. He pointed out how the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences still has the name \u201cEllen Page\u201d listed under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oscars.org\/oscars\/ceremonies\/2008\">nominees<\/a> for Best Actress in a Leading Role for 2008, which should lead to the Oscars being canceled and deplatformed like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/jordan-peterson-id-rather-die-than-delete-truthful-tweet-for-cancel-creeps\">Jordan Peterson<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a chance they weren\u2019t because the Academy bowed to Page\u2019s wishes on another page. When searching for \u201cEllen Page\u201d on <a href=\"https:\/\/oscars.org\/\">Oscars.org<\/a>, users encounter \u201cElliot Page\u201d instead with a short explainer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNOTE: Nomination originally submitted under Elliot Page\u2019s prior name. At the request of the nominee, following his December 1, 2020 announcement that he is transgender, his name has been changed accordingly with support of the Academy\u2019s Awards and Events Committee,\u201d it <a href=\"https:\/\/awardsdatabase.oscars.org\/search\/getresults?query=%7B%22Nominee%22%3A%22Page%22%2C%22Sort%22%3A%221-Nominee-Alpha%22%2C%22AwardShowNumberFrom%22%3A0%2C%22AwardShowNumberTo%22%3A0%2C%22Search%22%3A30%7D\">says<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s less confusing than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0680983\/\">IMDb<\/a>, which appears to have erased Page\u2019s former name entirely. The short bio on the Hollywood star doesn\u2019t contain the name \u201cEllen\u201d at all, even for roles that Page performed under the former name. Page\u2019s acting past has been erased and rewritten, which Knowles compares to the classic dystopian novel \u201c1984.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Page\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Elliot_Page\">Wikipedia<\/a> offers a terse \u201cformerly Ellen Page\u201d by way of description, but uses he\/him pronouns and Elliot throughout the rest of the text.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The practice of \u201cdeadnaming\u201d refers to using a person\u2019s previous name, especially for transgender individuals. Knowles points out that Page went by \u201cEllen\u201d for 33 out of 35 years of life and can\u2019t just erase that history and start over, plus shouldn\u2019t expect the rest of the world to do so.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Knowles points out the absurdity of the charade, especially if Page decided tomorrow to switch back to using female pronouns and going by Ellen again. After many instances of transgender people detransitioning, which The Daily Wire has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/detransitioners-flood-social-media-with-testimony-photos-the-darkest-time-in-my-life\">reported on<\/a> before, this possibility is not too far-fetched.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If someone from 2008 awakened from a coma and immediately decided to look up their favorite actress Ellen Page, that person would be left disappointed because she doesn\u2019t exist anymore in places like IMDb and Wikipedia.
