Try to imagine essentially never having a MS or HS teacher you can remember saying “Great Job.” or even “Good job.”, based on what you said, thought or created. “You missed a minus sign.” “It is ‘their’ not ‘there’.” “You misunderstood the assignment.” I mean every educator??

So when I see someone on CNN laughing about the little people who can’t spell, read or write...how do I put this...he’s laughing about me. My family. My grandfathers. My people. My PhD. And I’m fine with it. I just want him to try to keep up with morons. Like me. It’s sincere.

I’d like to teach a lesson about folks who aren’t good at school. Who suck at math and can’t spell. Who have to fake reading when reading aloud in a room full of smug kids who laugh. I never saw *anyone* stand up for my people. My tribe. Or me. We were all invisible. Until now.

So forgive me. But I am willing to match wits with my IQ superiors. I still can’t spell. I can’t keep Luxembourg & Belgium straight all the time. Hell, my left and right still confuse the heck out of me. But this insufferable schooled arrogance & contempt for others is a cancer.

No one has to take this shit from
@donlemon and company. Not bible thumpers. Not Christians. Not working people. Not dropouts. Not farmers. Not conservatives. Not midwesterners. Not hillbillies. And I’m ready. I’ll stand for those who get screwed. It’s what progressives do. Thx.Prikaži ovu nit

Thanks for not being too shy to share this.

I hate the fact that I can’t bear to listen to this. But it is so destructive to so many of us who are afraid to say “Uh, that would be me you are using to make your idiotic point.” It is a normalized form of open middlebrow bigotry. Like whites discussing “the help” in 1820.

Given these cognitive / behavioral differences, I've always been curious about how you eventually got so much traction with mathematics, a notoriously precise / symbolic domain. Does work w/ math symbols / abstractions differ noticeably from your experience of written words?

I'll take a guess, I believe he understood mathematics and other subjects really well, better than what his teachers could ever imagine but its in his own language and the struggle was converting whats in his head to a universal language, so the real struggle was translation.

I became a HS teacher because I had awful HS teachers. Subject area competency isn’t enough. Teachers act “in loco parentis” and must be trained, remunerated and held to account in the same way other professionals are.
