Again it isn't just because you post about it. It is that you post tweets that are the most sensationalist and lacking in context because as you admitted, you don't even verify or research anything you are posting. So your posts are low quality, unreliable, and highly biased. They are often using outliers to try and paint the whole of community with characteristics of the outlier. That isn't the actions of some with a reasonable contrary position on an issue. It is the actions of someone who has a bias against the group.
Parents are the key to this issue Even in California When that woke school council women let the dumb kids in smart classes without any tests or grade qualifications The parents voted her out It’s not equal because smart kids are smarter than dumb kids The dumb kids can’t do math as good as the smart kids so they need more help , You can just drop them into calculus 2 , they are going to fail breh
Remember that @FranchiseBlade is one of the leftist activist, teachers union types...in California. Very fringe.
Remember that purely ad hominem responses don't addresses issues or arguments provided. Very shallow and lacking in logical formulation of a credible position.
I was reading a paper that touch on what you posted here. Your post here gel with what I think many of us have sadly seen too often online. This tweet below ref that recent paper on the subject of moral dynamic due to social media (the attention economy). Low quality, emotionally charge, outrage, unreliable contents are shared and amplified… “Competing in this attention economy can lead people to create and express exaggerated beliefs and carefully curated content designed to capture attention rather than reflect reality or benefit humanity (Fisher, 2022). The pull of the attention economy is thus central to understanding the psychology and behavior of social media users. One means by which individuals can capture attention and drive engagement is by sharing morally and emotionally evocative content (see Brady, Crockett, & Van Bavel, 2020). Our attention to moral issues is the result of more than 6 million years of evolution, in which survival often hinged on the ability of individuals and coalitions to effectively navigate their social groups (Boehm, 2012; Krebs, 2008). Even today, transgressing moral norms can result in public shaming, punishment, and professional censure while affirming community values or moral heroism can immediately bolster one’s social status (Haidt, 2007; Salerno & Peter-Hagene, 2013). Moralistic punishment can be a force for good, increasing cooperation by holding bad actors accountable. But punishment can also increase social conflict by dehumanizing others and even escalate to violent conflict (Fincher & Tetlock, 2016). As such, morality plays a central role in human sociality, from regulating social behavior to mobilizing collective action. Social media appears to accelerate and inflame these facets of moral psychology, fostering and rewarding norms of outrage (Brady et al., 2021). Indeed, people now encounter more acts related to morality and experience stronger feelings of moral outrage from online content than print, TV, and radio combined (Crockett, 2017; see Figure 1). Our online exposure to (im)morality might reflect that fact that moral content captures attention (Brady et. al, 2017), and social media makes moral behavior (such as punishment) less costly. This has raised the question, "If moral outrage is a fire, is the internet like gasoline?" (Crockett, 2017). Our review of the literature suggests that social media often acts like an accelerant for existing moral dynamics—amplifying negative facets of morality such as outrage, harassment, status seeking, and intergroup conflict, as well as some positive aspects of morality, such as social support, prosociality, and collective action. … In this review, we describe the psychological function and appeal of morality, and how these instincts are harnessed and monetized by individuals, political actors, and social media companies. We then review the impact of our moral psychology on a broad array of individual and societal issues related to social media. Finally, we discuss the current and future directions of research on social media and morality (such as the need for more research across platforms and cultural contexts). This paper will provide a state-of-the-art overview of how the interplay between morality and social media influences individuals, groups, and societies.
I appreciate your thoughtful responses whether I agree 5% or 100%. It is refreshing to see, and interesting as well as often educational to read.
Was anything I said in that post factually incorrect? You might not consider yourself fringe, granted, but objectively, you are. How is stating facts an ad hominem attack?
The ONLY thing this post responds to is you talking about me as a teacher and the union to which I belong. Maybe, take a break and regroup. You simply aren't making sense.
Bruh, objectively you are a profoundly weird dude. The amount of time you spend waging culture wars on a basketball message board are so outside the norm, it would be hard to measure. Of course, you are incapable of this self reflection, because if you were, you wouldn't be so profoundly weird.
What really bothers you is not that I discuss the topics, but that you get schooled all the time. Also, to quote a famous leftist activist: "ad hominem"
