Imagine if she said Palestinians deserve to live.
A monster like that should be dragged into the street and shot!
/s cause I’m certain there are real monsters who believe the above.
Yeah there’s a bunch of them in the Knesset
Great. Now nicknames will be illegal. No more Max or Jim or Bill. It’s either Maximillian or James or you’re fired (and no one cares about poor ol’ Bill).
Just when I thought Florida couldn’t get any dumber… damn, was I wrong.
Teachers, like all employees, are expected to follow the law.
No. If a law is unjust and immoral it is the imperitive of everyone at the district to disobey it.
Just because it is law, does not make it right.
Jesus fucking Christ. When I was in middle school in the southern Midwest, on the first day of school I had the teachers straight up ask if anyone had a preferred name other than the one on their records. Unprompted. And no one gave a shit.
She have a fund we can donate too?
Bro wtf kind of a name is James Donald Bowman? Seriously, “Bow Man”? Dude can’t even lift a bow. 🤣 This is supposed to be a “Vice President”?
We need people to find this couch-fucker and start saying “Yo, James, you couch-fucker!” and tell the journalist to start asking “Mr. Bowman, when is the last time you’ve held a bow?” 😂
No, not bow as in “bow and arrow”. It’s bow as in “bow down and kiss my feet, little bitch!”
When you look at it in the right context it is a perfect name for him.Maybe a “bowjob”,
I wonder if this law was written to target transgender students but instead it’s now affecting cis gender kids who can’t go by their nick name any more and now teachers are losing their jobs for using nick names on their students they prefer.
Transphobia also affects cis people just like how homophobia can affect straight people because they recieve harassment if they’re mistaken as gay like how my brother faced racism by his math teacher because she thought he was Native.
This would be leopards eating faces if the teacher voted this in and the parents who are protesting.
Knew a straight guy who got beaten almost to death because two fascist chuds thought he was gay. Only survived because one of his buddies at the gig he was working that night noticed he didn’t make it back to the hotel after, could have easily just bled out overnight over nothing. When you decide to amplify hateful and violent ideology, it creates a hateful and violent world.
In Florida, students have this one cool trick to get their teachers fired. Thanks, Florida!
Also, is that government punishing speech?
“She is irreplaceable, not only a good teacher, but significantly more importantly she is the kindest and most caring person I have ever met in my life,” one supporter commented.
“Kindness and caring have no place in the classroom” - conservatives probably
Conservatives, absolutely. They see empathy as a weakness.
Probably because the most powerful conservatives all got to grow up in abusive boarding schools that disfigured their souls, deleted their empathy, and taught them how to savagely bully their way into power, humanity be damned.

But guns sure do!
My mom’s (teacher) old boss (principal) literally told her that she shouldn’t even know what the kids do after they leave school, basically saying she shouldn’t care about the kids.
Like why the fuck else do you become a teacher?!
Damn.
She should leave Gilead and join us up here in Canada. Staple the news article to her immigration paperwork. It’s a badge of honour. How can you all have pride in a country that does this shit? Stay safe down there!
Staple it to job applications too. I suspect many blue state and private schools would see it as a commendation.
It’s not great in blue areas either, just minus the sht like Florida is doing. But they are generally underpaid in general, in the west had a former coworker refuse a contract with a district because the pay is very low, like starting 25k in a 5-7year contract, and no choice of districts.
Private school are worst, you may or may not work some.weeks.
Guys, everyone that read this, remember, Ted Cruz is his preferred name. His real name is Rafael. If you don’t want to get in trouble, make sure to call him Rafael every chance you get.
Rafael Edward Cruz, the Canadian-American, US Senator.
It’s lowkey appropriate that he was born in Alberta.
Another immigrant, taking senatorial jobs from hard-working Americans! Damn you, Rafael!
señator Raf Cruz, shield your people with strong Texan wings! 🐧

So we’ve reached the point where calling someone what they want to be called can cost you your job. Imagine getting fired for basic human decency. 🤔
I go by my middle name. Not because I wanted to, but because that is what my immediate family chose. I became comfortable with it. So I decided in certain settings to let people use my first name.
99% of my extended family doesn’t know my first name. Some of them are teachers. If I had been in their class, they’d be in trouble. Fucking stupid law.
Fucking stupid

I only have one data point but my kid’s teachers (high school) have always both called my kid their preferred name and pronouns. I did get “the letter” this year to send back saying it was ok. Ridiculous.
This is just such a mess, why oh why.
What I really and truly can’t understand are the parents. How can you be THAT controlling? What do they think it’s going to accomplish?
For some, children are slaves or photocopies of themselves. To be anything else, is an insult.
Exhibit A: Musk, and how he reacted to Vivian Wilson.
