Today she pulled me aside and said that she disagreed with what I had to say. I asked why and she said that she believed what defectors had wrote in their biographies (she didn't name any specific books). I didn't actually get to counter that (or respond to anything really) beyond the documentary (Loyal Citizens of Pyongyang) I linked in my email which she didn't watch apparently. She was respectful I guess. Should I respond with a critique of Escape from Camp 14 and In Order to Live or should I just brush it off?
As a teacher, we're structurally insentivised to be assholes. If you're not actively fighting against it, you're being a controlling dick to children.
Kids can and should be saying "fuck teachers."
