https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/mesquite-isd-teacher-resigns-amid-investigation-into-alarming-racist-posts-on-social-media/ar-AA1f0DuD

A Texas elementary school on Tuesday announced the firing of a teacher for social media comments about white people that it deemed "racist."
The issue arose in the Mesquite Independent School District in Mesquite, Texas, a suburban city situated east of Dallas. On Tuesday, the district shared a statement to X, formerly Twitter, announcing that a teacher, whom the statement did not name, had been let go from Thompson Elementary School following the discovery of "alarming, racist statements" she made on the platform.
"At approximately 4 p.m. [local time] yesterday, Mesquite ISD became aware of a series of alarming, racist statements posted to the X (formerly Twitter) account of a teacher at Thompson Elementary," the post explained. "Upon learning of this situation, our Personnel staff began an immediate investigation."

The post continued: "As of this morning, the employee is no longer a part of the Mesquite ISD organization and is not eligible for rehire. Due to privacy restrictions, Mesquite ISD cannot comment on the details of Personnel matters. Nevertheless, the highly offensive statements posted to her X account do not reflect the values and standards of Mesquite ISD, and the district condemns them in the strongest terms."


The teacher, who is Black, has since deactivated her X account. Her bio previously stated that she is 29 and a "Black supremacist."
In some of her posts, the teacher used derogatory terms for white people. In others, she complained about her sister spending time with a white man and asked her boyfriend to kill him.
I enjoy being racist, she wrote in one post. Im never changing.
The teacher, who has not been named by the district, worked at Mesquite ISD's Thompson Elementary.

Fair next. Racists have no place teaching our children, she got busted when she posted texts enraged her sister was dating a white guy and wanted some folks to come kill him. Then people looked into her post history and now unemployment...

Definitely worth firing someone over.

But if there was actually CRT in the classroom, the fired teacher would have known she was being bigoted and not racist, as racism requires a systemic component to it.

Yes, true, this is unacceptable behavior. But what's even more upsetting is that you know a lot of white people are probably doing this same thing and Texas don't give a fuck about that ( -_-)

Surely Elon meant no one would ever get in trouble at work for what they said online ever again. Surely he wasn't just saying that to push a right-wing agenda that no one ever got punished for what they said outside of work!

I remember in an episode of The Mentalist, one of the suspects was caught on camera chaining his gay (later revealed to be trans-in-denial) son to a desk and both physically and verbally beating them. The characters remarked that once the media got hold of this footage there would be national outrage and the man would never find work again.

... Didn't age too well, did it? Much of the US at the moment would be lining up to offer him employment after seeing that.

Not the only thing that didn't age well though. As with all police procedurals, there was inevitably the episode where the killer was a cop and it was suggested that the system will "come down exceptionally hard on him" because police are held to a higher standard. Right, I'm sure...

Im black and Ive never heard of hoteps before. The race mixing thing? I have but very rarely personally. There is a problem in our community about us getting angry that black people are not dating black people. That topic is sensitive and deep as an ocean but I think the idea of it is being phased out which is a good thing

So be it. Democrats and generally decent people don't think in such ways. The law should be the same for everyone, thus racists need to be called out and punished regardless of whether their background. Everyone should be treated equally, no exception.

It's what chuds not understand.

Are you saying that you posting that Black people cant be racist was satire of a right winger saying that? Because its something that they believe but you dont? I really dont get what youre trying to do here.

Theyre saying that the Critical Race Theory that conservatives shriek about clearly isnt being taught in schools or else the teacher would know that she was being bigoted, not racist. Im not sure Id consider the comment satire, but thats my reading of it.
