How many of you had a crappy childhood? How much of that had to do with bullying in schools?
Thanks to COVID-19 and online learning, many subhuman youngcels all over the world don't have to deal with that. They won't be tormented in PE classes. They won't have to eat alone in packed dining halls. They won't have their faces smashed into lockers. They won't have foids sneering at them in the hallway. They won't have to sit alone in a dorm room trying to sleep while Chads and Stacies are throwing parties next door. They won't be constantly reminded that they are genetic trash.
Quite frankly, the transition to online platforms is one of the most incel-friendly aspects of the coronavirus. I mean, you don't feel as socially excluded if everyone is socially distancing.
But the Trump admin wants to undo all that. They want schools and universities to return to business as usual in the midst of a pandemic.
For the last two weeks or so, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos has been threatening to yank federal funds for school districts which don't fully reopen, despite the fact that many school districts have neither sufficient space nor resources to run in-person classes five days a week for all pupils and maintain social distancing. This will probably hit communities that are already hit hardest by the pandemic: low-income people of colour (non-Chads, basically).
And just last week, Acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf (yes, that's actually his name) and Acting ICE Director Matthew Albance introduced an administrative guideline that would bar international students on F-1 visas from entering the country if their classes were conducted online. Given that many international students pay full tuition and are consequently crucial to many American academic institutions, this is essentially blackmail by the Trump administration: you will reopen your classrooms or we'll deport your (mostly ricecel and currycel) students.
Some of you might not be aware, but before I moved to the UK, I attended a private boarding school in the Northeastern United States which also had a sizeable international student population. Presumably, many students at my former and other boarding schools may also be denied entry (or will face deportation if they are still in the United States). Today I found out on Facebook that some of my fellow alums were trying to pressure my alma mater's administration into filing and/or joining an amicus brief in the case of Harvard v. Department of Homeland Security, a civil action that Harvard and MIT jointly filed in federal court last week seeking a preliminary injunction preventing ICE and DHS from enforcing the new rule, and in the eight or so similar lawsuits that other academic institutions, cities, and states have since filed across the country. I hope Harvard et al wins, but considering the extremely deferential stance that the federal judiciary has towards executive authority, I won't hold my breath.
Can some of you geniuses explain why the White House is pushing forward with this? "Stupid" doesn't even begin to describe it. Considering that the main victims of this policy will be low-value men, this is something that you burgercels should be thinking about.
