Kek. This reminds me of a teacher I had that was irate that I had pushed back against an example in the Trig math book. I told him their answer was incorrect & the other kids would learn the process wrong if he used it. I then was instructed to come do the problem on the board, which I did & graphed it correctly. He was pissed that I would question HIM. He then gave me another question which I free handed the graph & told him to do it himself. He was irate that my graph lined up almost perfectly & sent me to the principal for "disrupting the class". My next year (senior) was filled with playing games in the office with an open invite to leave any classroom if I turned in the homework for the day before I left.
The crazy thing is my brother called him out on the exact same problem the teacher didn't fix & the only time that he ever went to the office for "discipline" is when the teacher realized I was his brother for that exact lesson. He was the perfect student otherwise.
Tyrants will push tyranny every chance they get.
edit: To be fair, this was my father's fault. He refused to allow me to ever use a calculator & taught me to "think math" as he called it. He was irate that the advanced math (calculus) teacher demanded we buy a TI-85 for the class as a requirement. Wouldn't you know that over half the class put either Snakes or Tetris on their calculator.
