Turns out that capitalism in decay produces an environment which is actively harmful to human growth and flourishing. Who could have predicted that?

          but those comments arent shitting on some of the most vulnerable members of society so they arent getting showered in 100s of upvotes

          Certified reddit-logo moment, i-am-adolf-hitler website.

              (god i hope 99% of the commenters on there arent actually teachers)

              On the one hand, it’s reddit-logo, so they’re probably mostly teenage / early 20s boys and federal agents.

              On the other hand, it’s Amerikkka, so the actual teachers are probably i-am-adolf-hitler too.

                I share your hope but unfortunately I knew a former teacher who would fit right in there with the things she says.

      that place is a reactionary shit hole

      I’ve believed this place is an op or is effectively unmoderated for a long time. If i ran the sub id be doing what r/k12sysadmin does, verification that posters actively work in schools. The nursing and askdoctors sub do this, but teachers doesn’t. I’ve found that r/teaching isn’t as bad.

      R/teachers hates kids with a passion and reddit hates them even more.

      “He’s fucking 2 years old.”

      I take everything related to teaching or school I read online or even hear in real life with a grain of salt. reddit-logo is going to be worse than most places, but this topic is a real honeypot for ”back in my day” and ”kids these days” rhetoric.
