"Your negative perception of lawyers is literally propaganda. The portrayal of defense attorneys as evil for defending criminals, the idea that suing people is something only rich or very greedy people do, the complete erasure of legal aid as a thing that exists, are all designed to make you afraid to advocate for your legal rights."

- @bemusedlybespectacled speaks the truth. This is super important. Besides legal aid attorneys, theres also attorneys that take a small percentage of winnings as legal fees, to help those who dont qualify for legal aid but still cant afford a lawyer.

Hate the laws forged in capitalism, not the lawyers (except some who deserve it).

My best/favorite teacher would literally take off the points for a question that the majority of the class got wrong from the total on the test and then hold a lesson on the topic because she realized if 90% of her students didn’t know the answer then she hadn’t done a good job teaching it.

[randaness]

I hate it when teachers take pride in having a large percentage of students get bad grades in their classes. It just means that students aren’t learning from you

[bloodytales]

True story, took a test, everyone got like a 65, I aced it. My teacher asked me how I got so high a grade when everyone else basically failed. I calmly explained that this particular test was on something that was covered in another class I had taken. Teacher decided that everyone could do a make up test, and at the end of the semester everyone’s lowest test grade would be dropped.

I am an extremely good test taker, it is one of my more useless skills. I once took a test from a class I didn’t even take and got a 96. I had several teachers remove my grade from the pool when setting the class curve.

But I also had one professor try to use my good grade as a reason to berate the failing grades of my fellow students and I had to confront the professor I’m front of the entire class and explain that my essay writing skills were most definitely not learned from her and that the only reason I successfully completed the assignment was because I had previously learned how to write an explication from my high school AP Lit teacher, and I figured out how to modify it for this assignment. The next two classes were dedicated to teaching the essay format she neglected to teach before she demanded it.

Some teachers/professors suck. Also some students excell despite their instructors. It was very annoying to be touted as proof of a shitty teacher’s success when I was just a giant fucking nerd.
