[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 7th grader DS completely surprised me yesterday when we discussed this topic. I was disappointed MCPS didnt lift mask guidelines at least in secondary schools. and his reaction was: "are you nuts? That was totally the right call. With over a thousand kids stuffed into small spaces, masks are a necessity". I guess masks are not stifling his development.[/quote]

Agree but it impinges on the Freedom of Trumpublicans (who are paid posters that don't live in MoCo).[/quote]

The people complaining are then unofficial trumpers as they live in MoCo and pretend to be liberals who care about others.   [/quote]

This. I can’t help but wonder if the OP is one of the Margery Smelkinson groupies who are essentially no-nothing Trumpers who use her science background as a cloak for the GOP anti mask / anti vaccine / anti any sensible precaution against the spread of covid.

Schools without masks are closing all over the south. Entire districts have closed schools in Texas and Florida (both states who are anti masks in school) due to the spread of covid. MCPS has remained open and yes, while not perfect, has managed to navigate the first two months fairly well.

Masks are literally not a big deal but these anti maskers are more invested in cultish politics than the safety of our kids and keeping schools safe and open. [/quote]

Come on, OP is probably smelkinson herself. They are a ridiculous group of people who think they are smarter than they actually are and hide behind their educational titles in order to get others to follow their ridiculous narratives. They’d love you to believe students in MoCo  are killing themselves on an hourly basis, all learned absolutely nothing last year, are miserable in masks, and will never recover from last year. They are the worst kind of people pretending to be the best. Luckily, the majority of MoCo residents aren’t as stupid as they wish we were and see them from what they truly are. “Everyone’s laughing at us…” no, Margery. Everyone is laughing at you and your cronies though.[/quote]

But at least Kara mcnulty finally has some “friends.” [/quote]

I support wearing masks but am firmly in the anti-bullying camp, so the people who are making these disparaging comments about Margery and Kara, neither of whom I even know, actually turn me off and seem more Trumpian than those 2 individuals do.[/quote]

I agree.  I'm in a lot of groups that have overlap, and they post in them.  I always get uncomfortable on DCUM when people start smearing them, especially Margery.  To be honest, sometimes it feels pretty anti-Semitic too

But we should let this anonymous message board be anonymous.  Or, if you are going to put one of these people (who are not paid, btw.  These are parent volunteers) on blast, sign the post with your real name.

They have the guts to go out in public and put their name and face behind their opinion  Have the courage to do the same[/quote]

Completely agree! Especially how this one poster plays with Margery’s last name is anti-Semitic. But wait a few minutes and this poster is going to come back and say that she is Jewish and can say whatever. [/quote]

Not the poster youre referring to, but as Jewish woman, its hardly anti-Semitic to call out a woman's actions who have nothing to do with religion. Are you really this stupid? Smelkinson has bizarre views and wants you all to agree with her bc she's a scientist  in education. I know plenty of people at the NIH who do not agree with her.[/quote]

Just the fact that you called an internet stranger stupid gives you away as that vile poster who keeps twisting Margery’s last name. I guess the fact that she wanted her four elementary school aged kids in actual school is bizarre to you but it’s not bizarre to the rest of world. What have you done to get the kids back to school? Oh, wait you stopped the spread by using Instacart. [/quote]

Good one. Are you a member of her cult? At the NIH, we are just waiting for her to get fired. Sorry your leader isn't as competent as you think. Her views are definitely bizarre to the community that can actually think for themselves. I'm sure she'll be glad she has a cheerleader though. Yikes.[/quote]

Lol.. do we work in the same department? The fact is… she’s a microscopist… the lowest of the low here and she parades her title around like she’s important. She definitely calls any news show that will listen to her insane rants. We all just grab popcorn. The fact any of you take her seriously is comical.[/quote]
