Hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are immersed in extreme poverty. Yet, disproportionate wealth remains in the hands of a few. It is an unjust scenario, in the face of which we cannot fail to question ourselves and commit to change things. There is no lack of resources at the root of disparities, but the need to address solvable problems related to a more equitable distribution of wealth, to be achieved with moral sense and honesty.

And this is exactly why the whole thing must collapse

@capitalweather @NWS_BaltWash This Capital Weather Gang tweet feels like: “Remain calm, but also maybe write some goodbye notes.”

Notice how really rich people keep encouraging people to go into trades, but none of them would want that for their own children. There’s nothing wrong with trades, but what they’re really trying to do is create a nation of service workers and laborers. People who remain in service to them. They want a much wider wealth gap than there is now. That’s why suddenly they are so anti-college and are trying to break the university system.

We can’t survive without “unskilled” laborers but NOBODY needs a billionaire.

If you haven’t taught in a classroom post-Covid, you don’t know what it is like to teach the modern student. The students have changed. Teaching has changed. You have to be in the classroom daily to understand what I mean.

@keithcc_ @JoeVogel_ @libsoftiktok Yeah that’s fair. With high school, they can easily be pretty responsible and reasonable. Middle school is a whole other kind of circus lol… I can see why staff might feel more like they have to micromanage it a bit 😂

@MsDvTeaches @JoeVogel_ @libsoftiktok At Pyle, the adults steered the event, I think to ensure it occurred at the time and place they preferred. IMO they assumed most of the control such that it wasn't really a student led event.

Keep Gaithersburg out of your fucking mouth @libsoftiktok — and leave our students alone

@keithcc_ @JoeVogel_ @libsoftiktok Here’s a screenshot & link to the language in the Student Rights & Responsibilities Handbook. To me, it looks like kids are entitled to adult support, but I suppose that could be interpreted in different ways.

That’s interesting. Tbh, idk about middle school, but I work at WMHS & our kids organized an ICE protest last month on their own. In my experience, protests are always student-led, but kids give admin the respect of a heads up. MCPS has policy for students’ right to protest.
