How is the slave owner using a slave driver to whip slaves different from the slaves organizing and killing the slavers?
From the AP article.
The assignment was for a psychology class about lifespan development. Students were asked to write a 650-word response to an academic study that examined whether conformity with gender norms was associated with popularity or bullying among middle school students.
“Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs,” the instructor wrote in feedback obtained by The Oklahoman. Instead, the instructor said the paper did “not answer the questions for the assignment.”
The paper “contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive” the criticism went on.
The article links to the essay, but not to the referenced paper. Does anyone have a link to the original paper?
Edit: The Wikipedia article has sa link to the academic paper. In the Wikipedia page, it's claimed that another instructor reviewed the grade and agreed with the zero. I don't have the rubric, so I can't judge for myself, but I wonder other than not turning in the paper or mentioning that there was a paper to read, what would earn you a zero? Her paper was a rant.
The Washington Post page is paywalled. Here's the same article on MSN.
The argument seems poorly constructed and hard to pull out from the article. But it boils down to, "Business won't do it unless they have to. Lowering prices means demand has dropped and they need to boost demand. They will also cut jobs since they gave pay raises recenlty. Cutting jobs could result in a recession."
I'm still a bit iffy if that's the actual argument, but that's my read right now.
What the fuck. He was asked about the environment we're in and he said he always believed that hateful thoughts lead to hate words which lead to hateful actions. So we can't be surprised that when we have hate thought and hateful words that we see hateful actions.
How did he condone political violence?!? He just answered the fucking question!
RTFM is an obnoxious retort for people, arguably in community, not to engage with a member of the community. I don't mind reading the manual, but perhaps you can point me to where in the manual I could get further insight.
Reading a manual is also a skill. Being able to compartmentalize manual info into buckets of "obvious and I don't need to read on", "could be helpful", "interesting, but it gets there I ain't touching it" takes either training or just getting lucky after a certain number of reps.
This is, apparently, Shanin Blake. This is a picture from 2017.
Arguably, there's a lot to criticize her about, but her leading a carefree lifestyle and finding success in publicizing it doesn't seem like one.
I think she handled this brilliantly. I'd have only changed the last intrraction.
"No. I am only 24 weeks pregnant. Do I need documentation if I'm only 24 weeks pregnant?"
This shit fucked my head up in high school. As an American studying German, I did not expect fairy tales to be so ... This.
Don't suck your thumbs children.
That makes sense. The use of violence here is to control the workers and the rest of society. It gets everyone back in line during a crisis reminding people that they have the power, not only to exploit them, but to also kill, imprison, and immiserate. Get in line and you'll be better off. Work for us help get people in line and you'll be better off than them.
