That would imply he cares enough to hate. He doesn't. He cares only about himself. He doesn't have the capacity to think about the US enough to hate it.

Students who file disingenuous grade appeals and grievances should be penalized for wasting everyone's time and, in this case, for trying to bully an instructor.

Noting you approve of teasing to enforce certain norms and then flipping the fuck out and crying discrimination when you are challenged in perhaps the most kind way possible is so much of their entire ethos in one distilled bit.

I only taught college for one more year after I transitioned, but this shit was my nightmare, and why I left the field. 100 she is trying to get the TA fired. And this is appallingly bad writing for a Junior. Most Freshmen write better than this after their basic COMP sequence.

And speaking as a trans person who got their PhD at OU...the university is absolutely fucking spineless when it comes to protecting grad students generally and trans ones in particular

Even worse the instructor then. They don't even have actual protections of the job. They're just being sacrificed by the Uni to save the feelings of TPUSA folks.

gabe woolley, an oklahoma state rep, repeatedly misgenders the TA here and says the OU student that vaguely alluded to the bible in her essay "cited real science"

Nah she’ll go straight to the right-wing speaker circuit. Look for her to be a regular guest on CNN in five years.

I love whenever articles like this are all “SEE THE UNREASONABLE ANGRY DEMANDS OF THIS SJW TEACHER” and the teacher’s comment are always “please actually cite sources and try not to call your classmates demonic”

Really hard not to see this whole thing as an effort to get a trans person fired from her TA job
