I know right? The other day I was screaming at the female students in my class about how they're all lazy spoiled sluts who are to blame for all the worlds problems and one of those oppressive shitlords had the audacity to report it.

Boo hoo your poor girl feelings got hurt. That's not a real thing. Who cares?

/SJWs are a mirror image of the stereotypical white male oppressors they claim to fight against.

"Elevating discomfort to discrimination" was the entire achievement of 1980s feminism in creating sexual harassment law. I do agree that it mocks the intent of anti-discrimination law, but coming from a feminist it's an absurdly lacking in self-awareness comment.

In any case she was charged with sexual harassment not discrimination per se, so they actually only elevated discomfort to the level of discomfort. That does mock the intention of sexual harassment of course, but only because the intention was hateful and absurd attacks on men, and this time the woman got hoist by her own petard (although I see from the article that her being charged with sexual harassment is the basis for her accusing the school of sexual harassment against her).

Not super mens right related, but I do have to scratch my head at this comment.

or had a black woman as an authority figure.

Aren't the vast majority of school teachers female? I honestly only knew a single male teacher until my teenage years. The writer states this multiple times despite this fact.

So, they got butthurt because she told them the truth regarding institutional racism and they didn't like what they saw in the mirror, eh?

Fucking self-entitled brats...
