The only thing "absurd and damaging" here is people's willingness to cast aspersions on a school they know nothing about, on the say-so of a student whose history with the school they know nothing about, for a judgment that quite possibly has nothing to do with what the student and her parents claim it does.
Sorry, I misunderstood. The school is indeed teaching (or at least preaching) an ideology but beyond that, it’s requiring all students to follow that ideology in and out of school.
That debate doesn’t really matter in this context. If you can identify another school imposing any ideology upon their students to a similar extent, I’d question them in the same manner.
I would. That’s why I’m not convinced your example has actually happened.
She was wearing that shirt at a diner off school property on her own time. Say she was wearing it in her own home. Should have been disciplined for wearing it at the dinner table with her family? This isn't ****ed up to you?
Just like public schools are trying to enforce the ideology of it's teachings in AGW climate change and automatic gun banning, for examples, outside of schools? You keep on proving my point.:roll:
It's a safe be that whatever you do to earn a living, that your occupation has nothing to do with academics or science..
What are you talking about? You’ve not even demonstrated any examples of those things being taught as ideology anywhere, let alone that there are any schools with a policy that allows students to be expelled if they fail to follow the ideology outside of school nor any schools where such a policy has been applied in a similar manner to this case.
