I wish I could agree with you, but when I worked at a campus, I heard teachers make similar remarks about children of color.
“They care about teaching and keep the kids safe,” were among the reasons why these teachers should get to keep their jobs.
I’d think that silently forcing a child to accept their fate due to systemic racism due to your biases would be considered an act of aggression, but apparently I was at fault for reporting this behavior.
Okay, but they’re not saying that about a child of color. They’re saying it about DHS coming in and throwing people to the ground. I’m sorry that happened to you, but it’s not really relevant.
Huh, there seems to be a resounding “fuck you” to my previous comment. I think I may have either read too deep into your original comment, or I’m missing something that’s implied.
I read your comment as, “teachers are practically Mr. Rogers and it speaks volumes that they’d disparage anyone.” Did I misunderstand?
I believe it’s meant to be read as “teachers are observing ice behaving worse than even the most irreverent highschoolers”. Correct me if I’m wrong and I’ll delete this
You know it’s fucking dire if someone that works at a school says that.

They’re gonna get so much worse unless they’re stopped.

I see, thank you!
That’s also what I read it as
