This lady is an idiot.. in the immortal words, of Pj O'Rourke..
Anyone that thinks highly of the american education system; has never fucked an El Ed Major
Teachers are the stupidest people on earth; Because they're not just stupid, they think they're smart
My gut feeling for the past decade-plus, is that Meade is the “rock of sanity” in your household.
If you tell me that Larry loves TikTok, I’ll change my mind.
Progs may be weak and lost, but they have the power. Wait for the discipline to come down on the deviant students. Prediction: when they own her, the school will own them right back.
When I taught high school science, I would read names on the first day telling the students beforehand that if they wanted to be referred to in some other way, they should tell me, either then or after class. I never got a banana or a rock, though I would have gone along if I had--partly to show I was a man of my word and partly because it had potential to lighten up the class.
The pronoun game is not ready for primetime. Too many bugs. I predict it will never be released beyond the beta testing phase. Only celebs are beta-testers. Whoever gave permission to this teacher to present it to her students as a finished product should be sent to a friendly concentration camp.
The most pathetic aspect of this is that she's asking Twitter. That's just so weird to me. She sounds like she's about to have a nervous breakdown. Shouldn't a teacher have a little bit of confidence in herself? A kid giving you a fake pronoun as a joke is not the end of the freaking world. Why display your insecurities to the entire world, including your students, their parents, your fellow teachers, and your principal and other administrators?
I had a few lousy teachers, k-12, but most of mine were very good, and a few were exceptional. Not one of them would have done the crazy s--t that Libs of TikTok is documenting. Most of my teachers were apolitical in class, a few were open liberals, and I can think of at least three high school teachers who were openly conservative. It was not an issue. All the teachers got along, at least in appearance. When appropriate they led honest class discussions about current events or controversial issues, but there was no proselytizing. That era seems like a different planet now.
"Somehow" the concept of pronouns came up. She brought them up so she could sound woke and cool to her new students. Instead, she ended up upset because they mocked her.
By 5th and 6th grade, they already know what pronouns are. This was not a "parts of speech" lesson. It was her wasting their time to feed her ego. I'm glad it backfired on her.
You're right that the students now own her. These are 10-11-12 year olds. They know how to afflict the comfortable.
Progs and leftists are going to be pariahs in the very near future.
Nobody will support this woman or her lunacy. It is embarrassing and only depraved shitheads think what she is pushing is a good idea.
Without "Mail In Votes" and other voter fraud Democrats wont clear 40% nationwide and the Nevertrumpers will not be able to win primaries.
Maricopa County is still looking for votes against Kari Lake btw.
Republicans are just as invested in voter fraud as democrats.
A kid after my own heart. And the dopey lib didn’t get that she was getting mocked by a kid.
I like banana and rock as pronouns but I’m sticking with beep/bop/bop.
Teachers are the stupidest people on earth;
Only a stupid person would want to be one, because you start in the worst schools. Schools can be no better than the students who attend them.
Maybe this is a good thing. Maybe these 6th graders are the Delta Tau Chi generation we need to even things out by being a thorn in the side of the Neidermeyer/Marmallard Woke generation.

Wow—super high praise from my favorite toy inventor of all time! Thank you very much, Roger.
Wonder not—I tolerate(barely) others’ indulgences in TikTok but in no way do I love what are known around here (thanks Bob Boyd) as “your commie videos.”
The progressive would think she's a rising star, trying to be the best she can be, if only people would let her, by offering their ideas for working with aggressive children, and perhaps a Native American prayer chant...led by an actual Native American.
The liberal would think she's asking the wrong questions and needs to refer to her Teacher's Union rep for advice on this situation and perhaps have the union rep raise this 'issue' with the school administration.
The GOP regular would think it's got to be near lunchtime.
The new and growing Republican base would think this person, this 'teacher' is a moron. And more than that, she's a walking description of todays Ed School grads. Welcome to the future.

I loved misbehaving in middle school like this. We had an 8th grade science teacher who was really losing his marbles, so we devised all kinds of pranks to test him. The first time we got out the bunsen burners to heat and bend glass tubes, we set fires into each of the science class's sinks using paper towels. He banned us from using the bunsen burners. For the rest of the year we repeatedly convinced him that it was another class that did that, not us, and he let us use them again. So we immediately set more fires in the sinks and were banned again. Good times. I think middle school is where the worst of the worst teachers are placed, just so the kids can drive them nuts.
my favorite, was when the El Ed major i was hitting on told me..
"You Realize, that Garbage Men make more than teachers!!!!"
and i said to her; "Maybe you should be a Garbage Man?"
AND she said; "GROSS! i would NEVER do a job like That!!!"

Your second paragraph hit the nail on the head. I experienced the same with my teachers in the 1970’s. My most liberal teacher was my high school History / American Government / Economics teacher. He challenged us and I debated him in class with my conservative positions against his liberal positions. He allowed and encouraged such discussions and didn’t disparage students (or their parents) who held opposite views. He was also pro-capitalist unlike what appears to be the marxist teachers of today who feel their job is to indoctrinate their students in that failed ideology. My teacher was frustrated more by apathetic students than anything else.
The teacher in this post by Ann has lost the respect of her students because of her wokeness. She further made herself a joke to them by recording this whiny video and posting it for all the world to see forever. I also hope that these students don’t fall for the wokeness our education system as they get older as they are the ones who need to get rid of it in our society as adults.

Instagram?
I'm going to make an exception and watch this one commie video.
I'll be back.
Oh my.
What a sorry excuse for an educated adult. She is the sort of person who begs to be mocked, ridiculed, and derided at every opportunity--like gilbar's nephew.
I'm up to the task!
FYI, gilbar has known some truly Awesome teachers.. He's just known too many El Ed Majors
Junior high (what's called middle school) tried to eradicate my natural talent for mockery, jeering, leering, and sneering, and replace them with compulsory cheering.
And I hadn't even heard of Monty Python then.
I sometimes think that people like Ms Odell here were as oblivious to mockery as kids as she seems to be here. In fact, that blindspot might be the key to the psyche of most of today's schoolmarms of all genders.
TikTok, nitTwitter is dead. Long live the nitTwitter.
To illustrate my difficulty with this whole debate, let's look at this clearly written straight word comment by Mary Beth at 8:58.
"Somehow the subject of pronouns came up. She brought them up so she could sound woke and cool to her new students. Instead, she ended up upset because they mocked her.
By 5th and 6th grade, they already know what pronouns are. This was not a "parts of speech" lesson. It was her wasting their time to feed her ego. I'm glad it backfired on her."
Now let me restate that comment using the new approach.
"Somehow the subject of pronouns came up. They brought them up so they could sound woke and cool to their new students. Instead, they ended up upset because xi mocked them. By 5th and 6th grade, xi already know what pronouns are. Jis was not a parts of speech lesson. Jit was their wasting xir time to feed their ego. He is glad it backfired on them."
It is incomprehensible.

Capitalist bread baking videos on LoafHub?
Pronouns matter. So does capitalization.
This pronoun business seems to me to be an exercise in power. If I can require you to treat lil ole me differently than your natural instinct for language use would permit, then I am truly spesh-shul, and I can cause you great social harm if you fail to do as I instruct. I can even put your job in jeopardy....because I am spesh-shul, and I have power! Dumb ass!

Well, since she's obviously. loser, NOT having confidence in herself is clearly the correct position

Because she's a proud member of the "culture of the victim", and so celebrating her victimhood is what she does.
There is nothing more humbling than spending your days surrounded by middle school kids. They have a great deal of insight, are great at recognizing bullshit, and have not yet developed filters. Don't ask then what they're thinking unless you're prepared for them to tell you.
In first grade at Catholic school, it was a wonder to discover that Sister Mary Cecilia had hair under the headgear. But this discovery was whispered among us, because she was known to wield a mean wooden ruler on knuckles when crossed.
"Because they're not just stupid, they think they're smart."
I don't know if they think they're smart, but so many are arrogant. All of us are ignorant over vast areas of human knowledge, but most of us have the judgement not to claim otherwise.
Teachers don't. So many will never admit to being ignorant of anything even when it's all too obvious to everyone else that they are.
And, well, as the saying has it, "Ignorance and arrogance make poor companions."
surrounded by middle school kids... and have not yet developed filters
Surrounded by b- and g-words, probably of the n- and g-word variants, if you ask me. That is, boys and girls, nerds and geeks. Hah! There is a branch, a tree, that they should climb, perhaps a seesaw to exercise their m-words, and get a little s-word, in another post.
“Capitalist bread baking videos on LoafHub?“
Oh great. Now the ChiComs’ll be stealing all muh dough. Dang you Bob Boyd!
I'm still convinced that I was black balled from the National Honor Society for doing something similar to my Junior year English teacher back in High School.
Rock on, Bananna!
Rock Bananna gives me hope for the young generation. Particularly if they can survive teachers like this one.
Are we sure we’re clear that “banana” and “rock” are NOUNS, not *PROnouns*? I think that was Meade’s point
Is she smarter than a fifth grader?
Thankfully, this garbage is now coming out. They're not smart enough to stop blabbing about the fascist re-education they're forcing down your kids' throats.
I've never been asked for my pronouns, but I ever am, then I have the perfect answer:
"Who, me?"
