Don’t leftists keep telling us that they are, in fact, the adults in the room? That they’re so much smarter than everyone else? Shouldn’t teachers be a little more grounded in reality? How many times have you seen teachers indulging and extolling, even pushing, crazy for their students?
Pupil who questioned classmate ‘identifying as a cat’ called ‘despicable’ by teacher
A Church of England school teacher told a pupil she was “despicable” after she refused to accept that her classmate identifies as a cat.
The 13-year-old girl and her friend were reprimanded by their teacher at Rye College, in East Sussex, on Friday at the end of a Year 8 class on “life education” in which they were told they can “be who you want to be and how you identify is up to you”.
The row, which has infuriated parents, was allegedly sparked by one of them asking a fellow pupil: “How can you identify as a cat when you’re a girl?”
Their teacher told them they were being reported to a senior leader and were no longer welcome at the school, part of the Aquinas Trust, a Church of England network of 11 schools, if they continued to express the view that only boys and girls exist.
I thought I had read an article that the whole “identifying as an animal” thing was made up? No?
The Telegraph has heard a recording of the heated exchange taken by one of the pupils, in which the teacher starts by saying “how dare you – you’ve just really upset someone” by “questioning their identity”.
The pupil responded: “If they want to identify as a cat or something then they are genuinely unwell – crazy.”
The teacher then asks the girls “where did you get this idea from that there are only two genders”, adding: “It is not an opinion.”
The teacher said that “gender is not linked to the parts that you were born with, gender is about how you identify, which is what I said right from the very beginning of the lesson.”
So, identifying as a cat is now considered a gender?
A parent of another Year 8 pupil at the school who has received the same lesson told The Telegraph: “I understand the point the teacher was attempting to make, what bothers me is the shutting down of debate in such a threatening and aggressive manner, which I don’t believe is appropriate in an educational setting.
“Regardless of the subject, education should serve to build awareness of differing points of view to widen the understanding of a subject. It shouldn’t be a case of indoctrination.”
Except, that is exactly what Leftists do, and they run the education system in the U.S., UK, and many other nations. They do see it as indoctrination, and if you won’t toe the line there will be consequences. There’s way more at the article if you’re up to reading massive crazy.
