Good teacher!
Much better than that girl’s makeup artist… is her mascara waterproof? If she keeps crying that much, she’s soon gonna look like an 80s glam rock singer.
'going' to? 🤪
To be honest, its pretty tame compared to caked up drag makeup where you are unrecognizable. If she didn't draw those sharp lines, the look would have been less aggressive.
really? after hearing what she had to say, all you can do is comment on her mascara. step away from the keyboard.
Message aside, albeit a good one, she is obviously heavily invested in Sharpie stock although I don't think her "style" took off.
I'm glad I'm not the only one saying it. I commend her for saying she'll never sit by and do the wrong thing again, but then I see that she let a blind 2 year old do her makeup and that's not exactly the right thing either.
All those fucking liberals
fuck them
the teacher should have failed Hannah B as an example.
That's the REAL FUCKING WORLD
The intolerant liberal fucks called for deaths and restriction of healthcare for pureblood.
In reality, you get to stand tall at most once, so it had better be fucking worth it.
People lost their jobs, their families, their lives over this dumb fuck response to covid.
And every one of those liberal fucks doesn't even have the self awareness to admit they were wrong and wonder why the purebloods knew better.
I'm going to be really mean here and say, are you really serious right now?
The bystander effect is a huge problem, and it's a huge problem in the real world. By teaching people what this effect looks like, and how violating authority to do what's right is good.
Obedience to authority not only runs contrary to good morals ("I was just following orders") it also runs contrary to the fiery red, rebellious American spirit.
The bystander effect helped push the COVID response. The people who refused to bow to authority, us, we stood up and told the authority "no".
Should we be "failed" for standing up?
It's school. It's supposed to teach you lessons. This was a valuable lesson taught to those kids, in an environment that was safe for them to learn it. The point of school is to introduce the world in a safer way, with a safety net, so that when they fall they can learn how to pick themselves up.
You're so off base here, it's not even funny or cute or even realistic. This teacher did the right thing, and did so in a way that no one was harmed and taught this person a life long lesson that needed to be learned.
This is one of the few times schooling has actually done its job at teaching a child.
are you really serious right now?
damn right with the first, but it was realistic.
"we" were outcast and shunned by the majority and STILL are over it.
many of us either got bullied into excess/useless procedures just to get paid or outright terminated for declining a medical procedure.
many of us have lost contact with our own bloodlines over this.
No, quite frankly this was a really poor choice and how we got into this shit in the first place.
You absolutely do not want to tell children that standing against authority and other bystanders suffers no consequences if they're morally right.
We were morally and scientifically right.
You need to teach them that standing against the authority and the mob can ABSOLUTELY have SEVERE repercussions and impress that the child should STILL have the fortitude to go through with it if they believe it.
That is what purebloods did.
Purebloods didn't identify it was just a random shit test and declined the procedure and have our employer and families congratulate us on doing a good thing.
Purebloods stood firm in the face of overwhelming consequences and followed through.
I don’t think he’s off base at all, I think he’s pointing out the lesson in a lesson. What I hear him saying is that not only are people willing to stand by in the real world, but we are increasingly seeing people in the real world punished for standing up for what is right. Refuse the jab, the right thing to do, lose your job and the right to travel. Live in Sweden and fight against immigrants raping your wife, they go free and you get arrested for being a bigot.
Failing Hanna would be the perfect representation of the current real world and that is scary.
Doesn’t mean stop standing up, but the person you’re replying to is correct and accurate and has made an excellent point.
this is exactly what I said.
It's easy to do the right thing when there are no consequences (which is what these students "learned" when the teacher failed to follow through with the threat)
it is REALLY FUCKING HARD to do the "right" thing when you suffer severe personal consequences rather than sit idle.
That should be the lesson. Is saving the fish worth the F.
If you really want apples to apples with covid.
The threat should have been everyone in the class fails if one person moves. That's how the government explained it. We're literally killing elderly by not getting the shot. Our peers used that to shame all the purebloods.
When I was a little kid at the volunteer fire company’s annual fundraising carnival, there was a game that gave winners a live goldfish in a water filled plastic bag. You were supposed to take it home and put it in a bowl to be a pet. A crazy guy who was my older brother’s friend on the high school football team was dared to eat the goldfish. A cheering crowd gathered around him as he plucked the goldfish out of the water bag, dropped it into his open maw, and swallowed it whole. No one really protested for the life of the goldfish. If it had floundered out of water like the one in the twitter story, people might’ve been more offended that the harm was without purpose and that it lasted a while. But I guess since this goldfish was eaten quickly, the people figured it served the purpose of providing a person with protein calories. It’s interesting how the different purposes of the harm might change peoples’ reactions. The guy also happened to be one of the first half-black, half-white people I met, so I don’t know if that influenced peoples’ reactions. Maybe some were hesitant to criticize a biracial person.
I wonder how the twitter story’s experiment might’ve gone differently if instead of putting the goldfish on the desk and then walking away, the teacher told the class he was going to swallow the goldfish in ten seconds and then held it over his mouth as he counted down. Would Hannah have interfered within the ten seconds? Or would she figure the teachers’ eating habits are his own business? Lots of people eat fish, maybe even Hannah.
As nice and feel good this message is , it’s not that simple in this real world we live in. There’s no way I’ll tell my kid to stick up for others. Put their neck out for others to put their lives at risk and then prob be called a racist by the victim once the dust settles anyway.
The bystander effect is watching or waiting for someone else to do something.
If someone is dying by the side of the road, the bystander effect causes people to glance and walk past, expecting someone else to do it.
This lesson teaches that yes, you should in fact call for help. That's not sticking your neck out, that's helping your fellow man.
You should be teaching your children not to be selfish people who will watch as they suffer in anguish. Those are the people who counter the every day normies who put us in this position to begin with.
Nah. You do you and I’ll do me. I teach them to survive first and foremost.
Also real world; I wonder if the teacher broke any law with this impromptu experiment involving minors
