i suspect the reason that so many on the left dislike "libs of tiktok" so much is that she has flipped their own script on them. they are used to being the ones who get to shame people and pile on moral opprobrium while being immune from criticism in return. no mas. suspending this kid seems an insane over-reaction to using a phrase in common parlance. and these petty scholastic tyrants are accustomed to being able to get away with it unseen and unaccountable. no mas. the overton window has moved and censorship based privilege is dissolving. the agora is starting to open to the whole of the public. sunshine is getting in. stay mad, wokesters. in about 5 more minutes it's going to be all you have left.

@boriquagato I only got kicked out of HS class once. (Early 2000s) I used 'illegal alien' and the Spanish teacher lost it. I wouldn't stand down so she tossed me. The dean just rolled his eyes and let me go to study hall.
@boriquagato I know it's normal in an American context but "illegal alien" hits like you're intentionally trying to dehumanise somebody. I don't think it's justified he's being reprimanded but damn it's maximally belligerent as a term, even if it has a legal basis.
