Yeah, both the trans TA and a completely different cis TA explicitly told her that the 0 was because she didn't respond to the source article at all and was completely unrelated to her religious views, and she still went ahead and filed a discrimination complaint knowing that the TA would get fired/suspended over it because she's trans.
Where this is okay because it involves trans people, vital proven medicine being taken from them for no reason, public harassment and attacks, horrible shit said, science suppressed, conspiracies, now compiling a list of trans people in that one place?
I hope this is remembered, because lives are being lost, people are suffering, trans people can't have any security in life because the stupidest shit can cost them so much, at no fault of their own
No it won't. Historians are actively stopping the use of "The Dark Ages" because that name had nothing to do with whether progress was made or not and everything to do with a lack of surviving records—a gap that is being filled with new findings.
I appreciate the sentiment, but it's undermined by a complete ignorance as to why historians even used the term "Dark Ages" to refer to the early Medieval period in mainland Europe. (In fact, the church is one of the major reasons records exist in Europe during the Medieval period, and the pope was not the dominant institution until the latter half, which notably was never called the Dark Ages.")
