FIll in full name, and DoB.

First question in Live Chat :

" Hi please tell me your full name "

thats quite incredible

…wait till you hear about the people that write for a hobby.

not everyone writes for profit

…and to any of the feeds actually contain an article ? or just links back to website, so they get pageview ?

it is the unavoidable point if you insist English Lit should avoid difficult topics in order to instil the joy of reading, because literature is filled with harrowing stories of people behaving inhumanely towards one another.

at the same time, arguing that difficult topics should not be avoided but taught carefully, does not mean i do not empathise with those affected.

its fun to watch. i think a few people have taken the opportunity to take control of famous subreddit names .

OPs question suggests there was at least some illusion !

if we’re only reading about rainbows and unicorns, it certainly thins the library.

british comic stuart lee on the subject.

imagine being in the strategy meeting with your team, when they suggest a play based on suspending withdrawing food from child would go well with your voters.

imagine agreeing to go with it. getting a speech written about it and one day standing at the lectern to say in front of crowd of assembled people “it is not our responsiblity to feed children”. and then pausing for applause and going home and telling your spouse, “today went great”.

in this supply chain of inhumanity, there were so many opportunities for the heart to say “yo…something is off here…cant quite put my finger on it…but it doesnt seem…right ?.”

to sail through all those checkpoints of human decency, and go through with it, is nothing less than psychopathy.

the unplanned kids that arrived under anti abortion laws.

it’s a weird mindset.

the idea that a cabal of mods were going to take things in a good direction was always unsound

I can see why, only if it is still being taught as it was 30 years ago - ie without addressing the language used - and I hope thats not the case. I can’t imagine anyone doing so in 2023.

If you start pulling stuff for those reasons (and for the record, I dont understand why they are still reading Steinbeck anyway) you go down a slightly dodgy path.

is there a better place, to learn and discuss racial slurs and the significance of the word, than in a class room ?

or should they learn it from rap music ? where it’s thrown around liberally like punctation, with no information about why it is the word that it is ?

thats incestuous
