It’s a private school.

I'm already afraid.

Bottom of the barrel N word humor.

I'm relieved I only sometimes have to hear that myself.

Back in like 2017 you had the pewdiepie debacle. Another notable event that year being some speaker at a MUN event turning out to be a massive pedo and getting arrested after fleeing from the Indian police trying to cross the border into Nepal. I think he made it and got to rot in a Nepalese jail instead. What he was doing in India I have no idea.

I remember that too. when Andrew Taint really took off, it sent shockwaves through my district too. I'm talking

" often with a specific name in mind where I had to weigh whether that counted as a threat to the person being talked about and whether I wanted to deal with another getting enraged at me for even bringing it up.

The civics class has a textbook called “totalitarian regimes” or something with Hitler and Stalin plastered all over the cover, I think Mao makes a cameo as well. Yes the kids swallow everything whole and think they’re geniuses for regurgitating the contents.

I'm glad I don't teach Civics because public school curriculum mandates aren't much better there.

Half the male student population is some variant of libertarian randite.

I see that shit mostly in college, and I can only hope that the influencer chuds in these kids' life don't have a lifelong grip on them.

There are these two little “””ironic””” Nazi gremlins, sieg heiling, Hitler loving, the whole package. They go around terrorizing minority students. One of them got shoved down a staircase and broke his arm after trying their bullshit on the wrong person. Guy who did it got expelled and the school held this whole “counseling session” thing where they basically blamed minority students for bringing it onto themselves and how violence is never ok. The Nazi kids got off scot free with an apology from the school. They went on to stab someone with a compass and the admin tried to cover it up. A history teacher sent out a mass email to the parents naming them and said it was the worst bullying she’d seen in like 30 years of teaching. She was fired before the day was out and the Nazi kids got another apology from the school for being subject to “mental trauma”. Another teacher made some comment in class about how fucked everything was, word got out and they were fired pretty soon after as well. Another apology from the school for being “re traumatized”. Reactions from the white students stemmed from not giving a fuck to tacit support to “oh that’s too bad sweaty, but by going after them we would become the real Nazis.”

Yeah we got some resident "wolfpack" Hitler Youth around here too, and there really isn't much that can be practically done about them, no matter what the laws say about hate speech (they're also the resident bullies, so they know how to push just enough without doing something punishable).

Your private school experience definitely sounds worse, though. I couldn't handle that. At all.

This is a school that can’t shut the fuck up about it’s DEI department. Just another reminder that the only thing a private school cares about is money and reputation.

This is also in a solidly blue state and city, not some backwater conservative Anytown.

This is familiar to me, too. Out of towners may assume I live in some liberal woke dream world where everyone hugs trees and throws flowers, but no, it's pretty chuddy, especially if the unhoused are involved.

Leftists, please rid yourselves of any pretensions that Gen Z is some sort of based communist generation and not like every other American. Reactionary politics is not an “old people thing” and it’s alive and well in the zoomers. Yes the situation is more precarious but the American left is an absolute farce compared to even Europe and the idea that dire economic straits in and of themselves would somehow lead to spontaneous revolution was debunked by, I don’t know, the entire 20th century. The zoomers are not going to save us.

For all our sakes, I do hope you're wrong there.
