Racism in the classroom

[Marc v4.0]

Look, all I'm saying is maybe, just maybe, he had a valid reason for killing all those families and eating their pets! It could be an age-culture thing, and everyone has to eat!

Like these should not actually be substantially more difficult things for a person to do than, say, blatantly compromising their ethics as an educator.

Two assumptions you're making
a: She accepts that what she did is racist
b: She gives a fuck if she does
Edit: Nik, did you, say, REPORT this sudden change? or are you just telling us, Cause that's some ballsy shit right there if so.

EditEdit: well yeah, also fuck you Fifth with your constant edits.

I think we should come up with a system of analysis with which we could look at the posting statistics of perma-banned people from joining up until banning, and then use that data to determine who is statistically most likely to become the next in line.

"You have been banned for Pre-trolling"

[Osterbaum]

That would actually be pretty excellent.

I'd like to thank everyone for the support, especially Nonsy and Premms who advised me before I really posted much, and everyone else for taking this so seriously.

It seems to be stalling because classmates just... either don't care, or are scared. Like, we're looking 12 students scared to speak up, 20 completely indifferent students, and the remaining 8 are sided with me.

I'm finding out if anyone else had a grade jump as well. :/


Also: thanks to everyone who defended me against Funka; I don't often deserve it but it was a nice thing to see and gave me butterflies and shit.

Edit: addressing Premmy: I'm filing that tomorrow alongside my fulltime application.

I think I have balls.


EditEdit: Addressing the delay- My grade had leapt to an 80%, and I had a rew people trying to encourage me to just shut up and be happy at a new easy A; taking a couple days to accept the decision sits with me as appropriate, esp. since I came to the right one.

Re: Scared to Speak up.

Is there any way you can have people present anonymous complaints or somesuch?

There is, but the validity of it being them and not just one or two of the 8 willing to speak up just buffering the count would be called into question fairly quickly, I wager.

Now that you mention it, I'll ask them if they'd be willing to attend and show support over a pair of cell phones with them meeting somewhere outside the school, though.

[Premmy advised me elsewhere to handle this in person, handing in the letter and making it a case on the spot.]

Yeah, I haven't seen NonCon just try to outright dismiss everything that someone posted as completely made up.

Yeah Funka's posting here was kind of awful above and beyond even anything funka usually gets up to tbh, like we've all talked some shit about some shit here on this forum of words but when you get into things related to people's personal lives there's a different standard you gotta apply. Especially with the thing about calling people liars (especially doing so long after the fact as an offhanded excuse for shitty behavior).
