When people who seek control
and who monetize fear
are faced with evidence their narrative of control is false
rather than embrace reality
(or develop courage)
they double down
At times of high stress you see bizarre overpolicing & bullying increase over petty non-issues.

There is a gender difference in bullying tactics.
Men: physical
Women: social (exclusion)
Later looks/sounds like
“Don’t talk to her”
“Club”
“No one likes you”
(Yes, really adults resort to grade school tactics)
Faculty/teachers need to stay aware:

Whereas adults are taught “just shake it off” or “ignore it”, students or children are especially vulnerable to faculty or teacher over-policing.
This over-policing starts not just in preschool but in the cradle.
“The police” in schools: teachers.

We should make teachers & faculty aware of bullying, including the “female” type that is silent social exclusion and shaming.
But what if the *teacher* is the bully? Is teaching bullying?
This happens by race: labeling as early as age 3 or preschool

In education, women were at the forefront of defending segregation, spreading fear, and seeking to “defend children” ....from children.
Dismantling systemic racism requires addressing the role of *women* in building and bolstering the foundation.

So think about
on that foundation
if we literally turn teachers into the police - arming some who already bully children
Correction is that it would not newly create a culture of fear, rather, advance an existing culture of fear in schools

This, about racism in schools
or teachers as the source of #bullying towards students
is NOT what I learned in #pediatrics
(tho it should have been in curriculum)
I learned it when I was invited to the White House as a community stakeholder
Then started to see it in #MedEd

Identifying such things - even literally quoting the U.S. Dept of Education - gets called being “anti-white”, “hating whites”

This is right out of the same playbook of KKK

Using women to advance racism in society, education (schools of universities), workplaces, was a strength of the KKK.

Male bullies NEED female bullies at their side
to play “good cop, bad cop”
and for overt aggression to be balanced by “delicate” and “damsel in distress” bullying
Taliban came to power to defend “women’s honor” and KKK rode often for that reason

Thought experiment:
let’s say we agree with Churchill

other races & cultures are
reject our heritage to rush to the embrace of “higher grade race” &
white “civilization”
What embrace?

Before claiming to “save” women from other countries, America should address own failures to protect women of any race.

60% of mass shooters had a history of domestic violence.
There is a tolerance of violence against women, including so-called “own” women
thus WOC & BIPOC who are labeled “other” or “intimidating” are definitely not safe.

If we get serious about violence against women, children
we flag those who make important donations to politics, universities, etc
This is circular then:
Protect money
Defend institutions
Silence activists
Maintain status quo: Systemic racism & sexism

Again, women are central to getting grotesquely abusive men access to children, other women.
If you see me go hard against women or “model minorities”
is because of this.

Who made those rules? Go back to beginning of the thread: women of KKK sought positions in education as “mothers” to “protect culture”

Patriarchy, racism, disparities are upheld BY women

yet, as we saw earlier w/ domestic violence stats

rather, hate survives, thrives, spreads, and embeds into systems (schools, HR) with women as “leaders”

Women are policed on "tone" & dress.
If the "wrong" woman antagonizes, then. the "right" woman reassures.

would you have been reassured?
