High School Boys Struggling at our Big 3

Anonymous
I guess I come from a time when parents spoke to their kids about not doing bad things? I guess you can't take anything for granted now - ya never know who is going to sue you.

Guess my plan has to fold before it starts. I didn't account for the $800 / hour legal fees. Thanks lawyers.

I talk to DS, in the morning I say have a great day, try not to tape anyone or be toxic. I know it’s hard but a day at the time…

The rape jokes appearing next to a thread about rape at a private school are inappropriate. Actually, don’t you think joking about it is always inappropriate?

Yes. It's def tasteless at best. Part of the problem at worst.

Is this the parent promoting Joe Rogan? He is sexist and racist.

Tiny violin OP. Why are you bringing this up here. Have your kid talk to the teacher + act like a big boy if he is so triggered.

Don’t be a rapist, don’t be a racist. Done. Now give back your consulting $$$$$


Reinterprestation of theores?

So in other words, you don't believe there was wealth built in this country on the backs of unpaid slavery? And that institutions have marginalized people of color and denied wealth creation for people of color from an institutional basis since the countries founding? Please be specific, what do you find pseudo?


The wealth of some many of my ancestors came after slavery and lived up north where there was never slavery.


Your white ancestors still benefited from being able to vote unencumbered, being able to own property wherever they wanted (which undoubtedly helped your family accumulate generational wealth), being able to attend schools and colleges unencumbered, being able to own and start business unencumbered, having all Americans use their money to flow into said businesses, being able to own and profit off their trademarks, being able to hold high earning positions in Wall Street, medical field, etc. Need I go on?! The fact that you really think all racism starts and stops at this imaginary slavery line and north and south astounds me


Tell that to Jewish people that could not attend schools or live in neighborhoods or enter into certain fields in the US. They had all these restrictions put on them – look it up they couldn’t live in many neighborhoods in DC or work in many fields or professions. Somehow they manage to rise up though and overcome them and become very successful. Irish and Italians were treated terribly and could not get jobs or employment either. No Catholics allowed etc but not worse than Jewish people.


Ok so the point you are trying to make is… Jews are better people than Blacks?

Give it a rest “restating the point incorrectly on purpose and then arguing with it” PP 😱
What’s the point of this silliness? Race baiting? Does this work for you IRL? What’s I’ve rarely seen a stupider argument method. And yet you are committed to your craft.

Also the people comparing people and ranking their travails. What’s that doing?

I guess this thread has jumped the shark a long time ago.

Well if there's anything I've learned from this thread, high school boys win the Oppression Olympics. They've had it soooo rough.

Are you for real? Seriously? Absolutely not. The point is many people in this country feel they had a bad shake and were discriminated against and held back. That is the point so if you are having this discussion in school it would have to encompass all of the people discriminated against to be accurate.

And so was the perpetrator.

What difference does that make?

Are you saying some rape jokes are ok - depending who the victims/perpetrators are?

Really?

Wow. You have really internalized the lesson at GDS.
