The Cobb County teacher who was fired last month after reading a book about gender identity to her students has appealed her termination to the State Board of Education.
Well she read a heavily politicized book in a region that wouldn’t like it. Wasn’t part of the curriculum, kinda not worth keeping her on. No reason to keep someone who intentionally creates headaches.
Presumably she did it as an intentional protest against stupid rules?
Sometimes people have to stand up to the bullshit.
Well she brought kids into it. Its one thing to picket or whatever, but you don’t screw with kids.
God forbid she educates the kids about a highly vulnerable minority on the authoritarian chopping block
Yes, I agree. Teachers shouldn’t be spreading propaganda, especially to kids.
Its not propaganda. Its reality. Gender exists. I think you’re on the wrong website - you’re looking for truthsocial.com
Wtf is truth social?
Lol is that really the best you can do MAGA troll?
Drugs exist etc etc. Not her call to tell little kids that drugs are actually fun right? Even when true.
Schools absolutely have drug education programs.
Are you fucking stupid?
Idk about you but they forced me to listen to a pig talk about DARE
“I always hated the speeches when I was in school, the preaching in auditoriums, the one-note message.
Stuff like saying drugs are bad. It’s wrong. Drugs are fantastic.”
“Um,” Fox-mask said.
Mrs. Yamada was glaring at me, but she hadn’t interrupted.
“People wouldn’t do them if they weren’t. They make you feel good, make your day brighter, give you
energy-”
“Weaver,” Mrs. Yamada cut in.
“-until they don’t,” I said. “People hear the message that drugs are bad, that they’ll ruin your life if you
do them once. And then you find out that isn’t exactly true because your friends did it and turned out
okay, or you wind up trying something and you’re fine. So you try them, try them again. It isn’t a
mind-shattering moment of horrible when you try that first drug. Or so I hear. It’s subtle, it creeps up
on you, and you never really get a good, convincing reason to stop before it ruins your life beyond
comprehension. I never went down that road, but I knew a fair number of people who did. People who
worked for me, when I was a supervillain.”
I had their attention now, at least.Yes. We should absolutely tell kids that drugs are fun. Along with all the rest. DARE programs are linked with higher drug usage, because they lie and keep the truth from kids, and they kids test what they were taught, find out it was lies, and don’t trust anything else from the program. Hiding reality from people does not make them better equipped for reality.
Didn’t the transphobes bring kids into it? She’s just fighting back aginst their inappropriate treatment of trans kids
Can you even explain what is gender identity? Since you are so against it. What is it and why shouldn’t kids learn about it?
