SF school board recall hits critical milestone to qualify for the ballot

Politics does not belong in public schools during a pandemic. The city attorney sued the board at one point demanding they produce a back to school plan last year. After a seven hour closed door school board session with their attorneys, their tone changed real quick after that meeting.
SFUSD is not a Petri dish to experiment on kids with real world politics.
> In her Twitter thread, posted before she became a school board member, Collins said many Asian people do not talk about critical race theory and instead promote a “model minority” myth and use white supremacist thinking.
> “Where are the vocal Asians speaking up against Trump? Don’t Asian Americans know they are on his list as well?” she tweeted. “Do they think they won’t be deported? profiled? beaten? Being a house n— is still being a n—. You’re still considered ‘the help.’ ”
What’s remarkable about these tweets is that they’re not some off-color joke or mocking someone for superficial characteristics. They reflect prejudice against Asians directed at their culture—labeling the things Asian parents teach their kids “white supremacist.” I can’t think of anyone else who publicly attacked Asians in this way in recent memory. Collins invokes Trump, but to my recollection he never attacked Asians for their culture like Collins has done.
Trump was also never recalled unlike this school board member.
You have a consistent theme of using every opportunity to magnify bad actions by non Republican actors no matter how insignificant the person might be, discount the apologies etc. while downplaying Republican racism (ex Stephen Miller who wouldn't let a brown ass into this country if he could) and providing convoluted arguments to support blatantly antiscience stance taken by the Republican party. Its tiresome to see this shtick play out in every thread.
And who were the perpetrators of these attacks, if you don’t mind me asking? Some guys in MAGA hats? Did they also have a noose?

Not for the lack of trying, though!

These “insignificant actors” are very representative, in fact. For example, this “anti Asian violence” narrative that you repeat here is coming from the biggest people in Democratic establishment, and the implication that the perpetrators are Trump supporters or Republicans is clearly false, and it’s obvious to anyone who is paying attention. Your comment here is pushing false narrative, while accusing others of doing exactly what you are doing yourself.
