"azotic" fired this volley in news:4omHn.20254$ snipped-for-privacy@newsfe18.iad:
Part of the problem that allows teachers to assume positions of authority then foist their idea(l)s upon students is that some of them are literate. Few of the general population of middle-school teachers are actually well-educated; true enough, even though they have "degrees" in "general education" (more of a description of the character of what they learned, than the scope of what they'll do). But more of the radical types are functionally literate than the "equal-pay-for-all-regardless- of-skills" types.
Some of "us" who condemn them are not. Those who are not have no right or ability to fight back, using illiterate, inane commentary. It has no use, and exhonerates the radicals' positions.
I wholeheartedly condemn what that teacher did. I can also write a cogent, well punctuated and properly spelled treatise on why I condemn it.
Get a book.
