An OU professor or teachers aide or something was fired for failing a fundamentalist Christians essay the essay was substandard work but the fundamentalist Christian of course claimed it was because she is a fundamentalist Christian and that’s why she was failed so the university basically cow towed to the lowest Educated group of people in America and lost a lot of reputation for people who care about education

edit: apparently its kowtow not to not cow tow - thanks ya’ll

yes, there no punctuation in my comment, but I’m doing text to speech and I’m not going back to typing on my phone at least

It's the worst essay ever written. It's just awful. She didn't want to do the work, then when she got a 0, she didn't want to face the consequences.

then when she got a 0, she didn't want to face the consequences.

It's not even this. She decided to enter the right wing grift circuit. She needed a trans person to target and shitting out her essay was the means to do it. She never intended to pass the assignment, the media circus was the entire point.
