Our enemies find another "non-white" Eurocentrist to write for them:
https://www.amren.com/features/2022/05/my-life-as-a-black-teacher-in-black-schools-is-hell/I’m writing to give you a bit of insight into the life of a black teacher who does not subscribe to the victim mentality that is rampant within the black community. My life as a black teacher in black schools is hell. Because I believe in personal responsibility and accountability, I’m not a “sistah.” According to other black people, I’m a coon, sellout, Uncle Tom, etc. I no longer care.
It is possible to both believe in accountability and subscribe to victim mentality. If you know you have been victimized, it is your duty to do everything in your power to hold your oppressor accountable. And to fail in this duty makes yourself accountable for your victimization also.
I told her, “The students won’t do their work. I give them class time and even offer to stay after school for extra help. I’ve also offered extensions. They don’t do anything.” She replied, “I understand you’re struggling as a new teacher. You haven’t realized yet that these students come from difficult homes. You can’t expect them to do homework. In fact, when I was a teacher, I never gave homework. We did everything in class. You have to meet our ‘babies’ where they are.”
In a world which cared about not initiating violence, class would not be compulsory either. But students are absolutely justified in not doing homework that they do not want to do. This has nothing to do with difficult homes - bringing this in is False Leftism. True Leftism would expect no students to do any homework they do not want to do. Why should they?
I asked: “I get that their lives might be difficult, but why are we allowing them to use this as a crutch? Won’t this continue the cycle? Aren’t we crippling them by coddling them? Shouldn’t we prepare them so they can get out of their current situations? How are we getting them ‘college and career ready’ if we tell them they don’t have to do homework, or any work for that matter, because they’ve had a hard life?”
Again, even students with easy lives have no reason to do any homework they do not want to do. No, it is you who are continuing the cycle of Western civilization by getting them 'college and career ready' by overriding their own original wishes. No, what you call "coddling" them is simply not initiating violence against them. Anyone who believes that absence of initiated violence causes "crippling" should not be a teacher. Yes, perhaps not being 'college and career ready' puts them at a competitive disadvantage compared to those who are, but being competitively disadvantaged is not the same thing as being "crippled". This is what a good teacher should be teaching students: there should never have been such a competition going on in the first place (and indeed there was not prior to Western incursion), and we should be trying to end the competition ASAP!
https://trueleft.createaforum.com/colonial-era/national-socialism-is-revolutionary-not-reactionary/msg10981/#msg10981True Leftism still believes in superiority and inferiority; the difference is that we believe the superior can be (and in reality are more often than not) defeated by the inferior in worldly competition (the colonial era being one example). In other words, True Leftism is divergence of the moral hierarchy from the natural hierarchy.
Socialism is then the attempt, given awareness of the above, to set things up in practice so as to help the superior (but less competitive) defeat the inferior (but more competitive).
Back to enemy article:
That day, I had an epiphany: How is this the white man’s fault? You are literally telling me to teach my students to underachieve.
It is the "white" man's fault because he was the one who spread Western civilization (including compulsory schooling) and hence Western standards of achievement during the colonial era. Your students as you describe them are underachieving only by Western standards. We should be killing Western civilization to suit your students, not crushing your students' spirits to suit Western standards.
How is this going to help them? They’re going to be stupid, entitled victims . . . but will no doubt blame the white man and systemic racism for their failures.
How would them blaming the "white" man be incorrect? Was it
not the "white" man who introduced compulsory schooling all over the world where previously such a thing never existed?
I resigned and took the job at my current school district. It was the only job I could find. It’s very hard to get into the better school districts. There are more white students at my current school, and having more diversity has been something of a saving grace
**** you.
The children aren’t completely stupid. They can figure out that there are no consequences for bad behavior.
Indeed. But what if I told you bad behaviour is adding more and more machines into the world? Yet Western civilization not only does not punish machinists, it positively rewards them! We should be thankful that at least some children (e.g. the students you complain about) have no interest in becoming machinists despite the rewards that await machinists! These children are the ones we should be adjusting civilization to meet! Instead you want to adjust them against their will until they become Westerners.
Standards are going away in favor of feelings.
What is the problem? Finally some people are able to feel that Western civilization is evil. And your response is to say that such people do not meet Western standards? Should we not instead see if we can use these feelings to establish a different set of standards?
most of these Title I schools don’t support no-nonsense black teachers who promote accountability. They don’t support black teachers who refuse to perpetuate the myth of black victimization in a “systemically racist” society. They don’t support black teachers who encourage black students to shake off this slave mentality.
Who is the slave: the one who still remembers that compulsory schooling is initiated violence, or the one who has forgotten this?
Did "blacks" introduce compulsory schooling into the world? Yet they are subjected to it. How then are "blacks" not victimized in a systemically racist society?
As for promoting accountability, no one born from the beginning of the colonial era onwards who disagrees that WESTERN CIVILIZATION MUST DIE can claim seriously to care about promoting accountability.
