There is an issue with the claim in the first paragraph which immediately set off alarms. While it doesn't hurt the argument for interpersonal respect, such a claim doesn't support the point the author is trying to make. This reader found it interesting that the writer chose not to employ capital letters for the second person pronouns in the piece.
This reader also has Webster's, Roget's, The Harbrace Handbook, The American Spelling Book, and Washington's Rules of Civility together on the shelf, for some context. Some portion of the neurodivergent population (such as the person here) cling to these conventions for a sense of security when interacting with others in a written format and no offense or slight is intended. Please assume good faith when interacting with the people on Beehaw.
