These people who literally teach hate for the concept of reality must be fully purged from our institutions - should be painfully obvious in the wake of the Charlie Kirk murder from someone brainwashed by this insane ideology.

Graduate teaching assistant Mel Curth failed student on essay advocating Biblical values and traditional gender roles.
A University of Oklahoma student who received a zero out of 25 on an assignment regarding gender norms says she was targeted for her Christian beliefs, citing a scathing response from the teacher's assistant who doled out the grade.
Samantha Fulnecky is a junior pre-med student at the Sooner State's flagship university.
"I was asked to read an article and give my opinion on the article, and the article was about gender binary and mental health and gender stereotypes, specifically in children, because it's a lifespan development class," Fulnecky told Fox News Digital. "So I was asked to give my opinion and my reaction to the paper."
Fulnecky and her classmates were tasked with writing a response to a scholarly article titled "Relations Among Gender Typicality, Peer Relations, and Mental Health During Early Adolescence," summarizing results of a study about gender norms among middle schoolers and the social ramifications children may face for not conforming to gender norms.

Take that TA behind a building and give he/she/it/whatever a thorough attitude adjustment.
Does she play basketball, how tall is she and the horizontal length of her arms and hands.
However, the only classes I remember having to express opinions about controversial topics were a series of honors economics classes where the students ranged from Marxist to anarcho-capitalists who thought Milton Friedman was a little too pink on the inside. Those were fun classes, but the teachers would have never given a zero for an opinion.
I'll say!
Curth's response insisted that the grade had nothing to do with Fulnecky's beliefs, but criticized the essay for lacking empirical evidence, which was not mentioned as a requirement in the grading rubric. Curth also described the paper as "offensive."
"Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs, but instead I am deducting point [sic] 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," Curth's response said.
Curth said that the concept of only two sexes is not backed by science.
"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," Curth said.
The teaching assistant also found Fulnecky's use of the word "demonic" to describe the idea of sex and gender on a spectrum "highly offensive."
"Additionally, to call an entire group of people 'demonic' is highly offensive, especially a minoritized population," Curth said.

Pronto.
Perhaps.
She failed to get brainwashed by the demonic Left in academia.
She didn’t understand the assignment. She was supposed to write a woke paper parroting the pro-mutilation position. Not to give her actual, honest opinion.
I had a few very progressive professors from Berkely when I was in college. However they weren’t in the complete indoctrination phase yet and treated us fairly. They were all close to retirement so by now I”m sure the professors back at college are hard core indoctrination commissars.
The article is called, Surgical Sex - Why We Stopped Doing Sex Change Operations by Paul R. McHugh, University Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University.
This transsexual movement is adopting the WOKE effort that destroys the lives of those who won’t comply.
In addition to Mel’s psychiatric problems he is not very bright. The pendulum is not swinging in his direction. In an effort to injure a student he has destroyed his own career. Let’s check and see what he is doing in a month.
Don't be lazy, read the article!
The paper was graded by graduate teaching assistant *** *****, who uses she/they pronouns.
A zero out of 25 is a score you would give a student who clearly 1. did not read the essay or 2. did not understand the essay or 3. read things into the essay that were not there. This young lady did none of the above. She read the article, gave an opinion outside the article, and wrote clearly. This article did not quote her entire essay, but I suspect with a fair/reading grading would have been no more than 2-3 points deducted.
Oh brother..what a load of crap from the TA!!
LOL edgeaycation at it’s finest.
