jesus christ, this nazi country is so fucking illiterate. for anyone playing along at home, 650 words is like a page and a half of 1.5 spacing writing. put another tally down on "everyone is 12 now." it's even obvious just from the stupid TPUSA screenshots on twitter that this woman's essay was trash without even reading it. there's like 10 underlined grammatical or typographical mistakes on every screenshot. i'd be fucking embarrassed to have people associate me forever with some half-assed writing assignment i got triggered by in a college course. not to mention the prose is terrible and fails to engage with anything academic in any way. off rip, it's "God this" and "God that," nothing at all to do with empirically rigorous argumentation. in a word, these nazis are pathetic.

edit: just saw the update with the response from the university ABOUT A DOG SHIT ASSIGNMENT THAT DIDN'T EVEN ENGAGE WITH THE SUBJECT MATTER. I HAVE NO FINGERS AND I MUST FEDPOST ISTG. ****************************************************** THE UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA.

The funny thing is that the essay prompt totally left room for bigoted nonsense, you just have to give it a pseudointellectual veneer. A consequence of the success of the viewpoint diversity propaganda is that it forces liberal institutions to raise reactionaries like cuckoo chicks, teaching them how to slide otherwise odious viewpoints under the noses of polite society, but the anti-intellectualism is so virulent that now they're attacking the momma bird for trying to bring them the worms they need to eat.

infinite GPA glitch discovered if you write 'Jesus' 'God' 'Bible' and 'Christian' enough times in a red state university no matter the assignment you trigger an overflow and max out your grade

Damn that professor is a gem, her response was incredibly professional and even supportive. Such a shame the student, university, ace country has their head so far up their asses. I wish I had any one professor that would have given me such constructive feedback on anything I turned in and to do so in response to such an obvious hateful bigot even.

Not even trying to be edgy when I say this country will need a cultural revolution unlike anything that has been witnessed before in history in order to excise this obscene anti-social behavior and anti-intellectualism that is fucking laser etched into the fabric of this abominable nation. What a fucking grotesque """culture""" we're all fucking trapped in. I hate it here.

citing "god" in a college essay should just get you kicked out all together

god does not view women as less significant then men

lol, lmao even.

pushing the lie that everyone has their own truth and everyone can do whatever they want and be whoever they want is not biblical whatsoever

what a fucking joke, does this person not know other religions exist? "Not everyone has a right to claim their own truth, it says so in my specific religious text that I believe to be true"

Wow I had professors in college who tore me apart when I put a comma in the wrong place. This was such a thoughtful and insightful response to the equivalent of a Reddit comment.

Then the spineless University bends over backwards to give the illiterate dunce a passing grade for a paper that can be summarized as: “God says. Therefore I am.

Imagine being a TA and getting put under a national spotlight for giving a bad grade to a bad assignment. Nightmare fuel

Please America, continue ruining your higher education system with dumbass ideological purity tests. Please produce the dumbest, most incompetent elite ever, someone so preoccupied with vice signalling and divorced from reality that they won't be able to maintain the evil empire.

As a tall Hwight man, I will serve penance for my ancestors crimes by educating these fucking cretins in the gulag after the revolution. When they complain about their low grades I'll tell them God gave me the authority as a white man to determine their assignment's worth by their own logic, so choose new logic or get back to breaking rocks.

This sounds like more fun than it is. Talking to these troglodytes is a cognito-hazard and reading their God awful writing is it's own kind of punishment. Trust me.

Lol found this image in the replies

Wrote too much in her reasoning. "This is a scientific class, this is not a scientific response. Fail." is all that is required.

The more you write, the more they can hang you with. The administration can ask for further details and just raising the "demonic" part alone would be more than enough to justify it, behind closed doors, where it isn't used in propaganda through social media drama.

Heh, no bailouts, everyone has to earn their way!

Okay then I'm failing you for writing a shitty essay.

Wait, no, TPUSA BAIL ME OUT!

as a university student, you are encouraged to explore many ideas including-and-increasingly-limited-to reactionary conservatism.

you will be treated with the utmost respect no matter what you advocate for. unless you are advocating the divestment of university resources from profiteering off slavery and genocide. then you will be gassed, beaten, and blacklisted.

wrote that shit bad on purpose to mcarthyism a trans woman

actual sentence from her essay:

Society pushing the lie that there are multiple genders and everyone should be whatever they want to be is demonic

only one gender

Fulnecky

WE ARE CHARLIE KIRK, WE CARRY THE FLAME

One of the main purposes of conservatism is for the intellectually and creatively bankrupt to offload the consequences of their ineptitude onto society as a whole

"God created woman in the image of His beauty"

Therefore God is trans

Or at least cross dresses

Checkmate theists

That essay reads like Homer's restaurant review

"And at the end you just repeat 'God says so' over and over"

"It's so hard to get to 650 words"

Doesn't TPUSA do this like twice a year? How are any of them even finishing college

Jesus christ

The comments were so kind and constructive. Chuds are such evil bastards.

Plain-text transcripts of the five sets of images (four from the tweet thread + the statement from OU). OP, it'd be helpful if you could link to this comment in your post for visibility.

::: spoiler Student Samantha Fulnecky's reaction paper This article provoking and caused me to thoroughly evaluate the idea of gender and the role it plays in our society. The article discussed peers using teasing as a way to enforce gender norms. I do not necessarily see this as a problem. God made male and female and made us differently from each other on purpose and for a purpose. God is very intentional with what He makes, and I believe trying to change that would only do more harm. Gender roles and tendencies should not be considered "stereotypes". Women naturally want to do womanly things because God created us with those womanly desires in our hearts. The same goes for men. God created men in the image of His courage and strength, and He created women in the image of His beauty. He intentionally created women differently than men and we should live our lives with that in mind.

It is frustrating to me when I read articles like this and discussion posts from my classmates of so many people trying to conform to the same mundane opinion, so they do not step on people's toes. I think that is a cowardly and insincere way to live. It is important to use the freedom of speech we have in this country, and I personally believe that eliminating gender in our society would be detrimental, as it pulls us farther from God's original plan for humans. It is perfectly normal for kids to follow gender "stereotypes" because that is how God made us. The reason so many girls want to feel womanly and care for others in a motherly way is not because they feel pressured to fit into social norms. It is because God created and chose them to reflect His beauty and His compassion in that way. In Genesis, God says that it is not good for man to be alone, so He created a helper for man (which is a woman). Many people assume the word "helper" in this context to be condescending and offensive to women. However, the original word in Hebrew is "ezer kenegdo" and that directly translates to "helper equal to". Additionally, God describes Himself in the Bible using "ezer kenegdo", or "helper", and He describes His Holy Spirit as our Helper as well. This shows the importance God places on the role of the helper (women's roles). God does not view women as less significant than men. He created us with such intentionally and care and He made women in his image of being a helper, and in the image of His beauty. If leaning into that role means I am "following gender stereotypes" then I am happy to be following a stereotype that aligns with the gifts and abilities God gave me as a woman.

I do not think men and women are pressured to be more masculine or feminine. I strongly disagree with the idea from the article that encouraging acceptance of diverse gender expressions could improve students' confidence. Society pushing the lie that there are multiple genders and everyone should be whatever they want to be is demonic and severely harms American youth. I do not want kids to or bullied in school. However, pushing the lie that everyone has their own truth and everyone can do whatever they want and be whoever they want is not biblical whatsoever. The Bible says that our lives are not our own but that our lives and bodies belong to the Lord for His glory. I live my life based on this truth and firmly believe that there would be less gender issues and insecurities in children if they were knowing that they do not belong to themselves, but they belong to the Lord.

Overall, reading articles such as this one encourage me to one day raise my children knowing that they have a Heavenly Father who loves them and cherishes them deeply and that having their identity firmly rooted in who He is will give them the satisfaction and acceptance that the world can never provide for them. My prayer for the world and specifically for American society and youth is that they would not believe the lies being spread from Satan that make them believe they are better off as another gender than what God made them. I pray that they feel God's love and acceptance as who He originally created them to be. :::

::: spoiler Instructor Mel Curth's comment Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs, but instead I am deducting point for you posting a reaction paper that does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive. While you are entitled to your own personal beliefs, there is an appropriate time or place to implement them in your reflections. I encourage all students to question or challenge the course material with other empirical findings or testable hypotheses, but using your own personal beliefs to argue against the findings of not only this article, but the findings of countless articles across psychology, biology, sociology, etc. is not best practice.

You argue that abiding by normative gender roles is beneficial (it is perfectly fine to believe this), but then to say that everyone should act the same, while also saying that people aren't pressured into gendered expectations is contradictory, especially since your arguments reflect a religious pressure to act in gender-stereotypical ways. You can say that strict gender norms don't create gender stereotypes, but that isn't true by definition of what a stereotype is. Please note that acknowledging gender stereotypes does not immediately denote a negative connotation, a nuance this article discusses.

Additionally, to call an entire group of people "demonic" is highly offensive, especially a minoritized population. You are entitled to your own beliefs, but this isn't a vague narrative of "society pushes lies," but instead the result of countless years developing psychological and scientific evidence for these claims and directly interacting with the communities involved. You may personally disagree with this, but that doesn't change the fact that every major psychological, medical, pediatric, and psychiatric association in the United States acknowledges that, biologically and psychologically, sex and gender is neither binary nor fixed.

I implore you apply some more perspective and empathy in your work. If you personally disagree with the findings, then by all means share your criticisms, but make sure to do so in a way that is appropriate and using the methodology of empirical psychology, as aligned with the learning goals in this class. If you have any additional questions or concerns about this or would like some additional educational resources, I would be happy to discuss this further and provide you with them.

The University of Oklahoma takes seriously concerns involving First Amendment rights, certainly including religious freedoms. Upon receiving notice from the student on the grading of an assignment, the University immediately began a full review of the situation and has acted swiftly to address the matter.

First, the college acted immediately to address the academic issue raised by the student. College leaders contacted her on the day her letter was received and have maintained regular communication throughout the process. As previously stated, a formal grade appeals process was conducted. The process resulted in steps to ensure no academic harm to the student from the graded assignments.

Second, the student reported filing a claim of illegal discrimination based on religious beliefs to the appropriate university office. OU has a clear process for reviewing such claims and it has been activated. The graduate student instructor has been placed on administrative leave pending the finalization of this process. To ensure fairness in the process, a full-time professor is serving as the course instructor for the remainder of the semester. :::

::: spoiler Instructor Megan Waldron's comment Samantha, I am the other instructor for this course, and I have also taken the time to read your paper. I concur with Mel on the grade you received. This paper should not be considered as a completion of the assignment.

Everyone has different ways in which they see the world, but in an academic course such as this you are being asked to support your ideas with empirical evidence and higher-level reasoning. I find it concerning that you state at the beginning of your paper that you do not think bullying ('teasing") is a bad thing. In addition, your paper directly and harshly criticizes your peers and their opinions, which are just as valuable as yours. Disagreeing with others is fine, but there is a respectful way to go about it. That goes for discussion posts as well as reaction papers.

Please employ more thoughtfulness in your future assignments. :::

(continued in next comment)

edit: was missing final paragraph of reaction paper—fixed.

We have to start ki–(remember Flakes, no fedposting)–ssing our loved ones more instead of buying guns and using them

God created men in the image of His courage and strength, and He created women in the image of His beauty. He intentionally created women differently than men and we should live our lives with that in mind.

(From Samantha's essay)

Ermm actually if God is man's strength and courage and woman's beauty, SHE'd be a girlboss who created a universe if she showed herself lol

I have encountered this kind of person in undergrad studies. In a literature course that tracked from the earliest English written works through to the modern era, a majority of the early works were about religion. Very frequently we'd be asked by the professor in class to contrast the view of Christianity or some aspect of it in the work we'd just read with something earlier we'd previously read. Without fail, every time this question would be asked one specific student would volunteer to answer and then immediately start criticizing the thousand year old work for its incorrect view of Jesus. Every single time. It wasted so much class time, everybody in class would groan and eyeball each other while this god-botherer would tell us what their preacher told them and why what the fuckin monk wrote in like 1100 is wrong and bad.

This is a very specific Type of American and they should not be humored.

Someone in university wrote that absolute garbage? Amerikkkan education really is fucked up.

😤

What was the essay the student was supposed to be responding to?

If I didn't have good people in my life who just happened to be Christian I would be very anti-Christian by now. I fucking HATE the people that do this shit. Total garbage human that uses make-believe to excuse their bigotry and hatred.

Am I a boomer for thinking 650 words shouldn't qualify as an essay?

Is there a GoFundMe for the teacher? When dipshits on the right get canned for actual bigotry they are showered in money. We should do the same on the left.

I have been listening to the TrueAnon episode on Charlie Kirk, and I am starting to revise my opinion of "that was a bad thing because we've lost our laughingstock".

Also, the teacher here should have made her comment that "I am giving you a 0/25 because God created me with the desire to give you a failing grade", referenced some obscure Bible verse, and watched what the student did.

Exercising my first amendment rights to writing bad essays in class 💪💪💪
