Yeah that was tactless of her. I think the Repubs are 100% making this bigger than it should be though. Like as a trans Pennsylvanian I am just tired.

Do you hold the school boards banning any discussion of race that may make white students uncomfortable to the same standard?

wut?

History is history. School boards need to allow teachers to teach history. Period.

That's a very reduced question with a huge range of potential subjects. Maybe avoid making a race in general uncomfortable. I can't think of any pedagogy that encourages that isn't designed to break down the student.

Not really, and that doesn't narrow down the range of the question. Or negates the worry about the implications of the pedagogy method.

Fucking Reddit. I forget that most of you are on the spectrum.

Try rereading my comment, but this time read it as a joke about the abysmal state of our actively attacked a defunded public school system.

Not really funny just a bad observation. And it's not really an attack if it's preventing the adoption of a bad system.

My apologies. I don't want to harp on your disability. Please, stick with your therapy and get well. Being NT isn't all it's cracked up to be anyway.

Imagine how big this would be if she was against voting for trans people. Imagine how big the dem's would make it.

The only real difference in these scenarios is the person in yours wouldn't resign.

I think your comment sums it up nicely. Racism and sexism only are serious if you aren't a white male.
