One thing I might posit is that a lot of people -- myself included -- have had really bad experiences with teachers from our own childhoods. I can tell you stories that would curl your hair of teachers, and every single person I know can do the same. Elementary school teachers unfortunately do not have a lot of goodwill from a lot of people due to our own experiences with them.
That said, I do think that it's not too much to expect to vaccinate teachers at the top of the line to assure them that they can do their jobs safely along with other essential workers. I don't feel that enabling them to do what is a vital job without fear of taking the virus home to their own families is "coddling" or any other GQP buzzword.
Weiss and McWhorter's substacks are becoming places not where principled centrist liberals come together with principle centrist conservatives and figure out how we can row in the same direction, away from the rocks. These substacks are turning into a bunch of crowing GQP-ers who love hearing what they think are liberals saying that liberalism sucks ass and always has.
We are not AGAINST liberalism. We are for it, and we are aghast at how the masks have fallen off what we thought was the same liberal movement and found out that they are as hate-filled, hypocritical, and dangerous as the GQP has revealed itself to be.
So any ultra-righters here, try not to get too smug. It's not exactly an endorsement of your position that many liberals have lost respect for the left wing because we found out that they are a lot more like YOU than first appeared.
