'This is stupid:' Australian school suspends 10-year-old for telling trans student to use boys room

Back in August, Twitchy reported on the arrest of an autistic girl in the UK[/i]. Her 'crime'? Telling a police officer she looked like a lesbian and/or Conan O'Brien. [u]No, we're not making that up.

Hmmm ... sure looks to me like this 16-year-old English girl is seeing things VERY clearly ...

She's definitely far more mature and rational than the London police officers who arrested her. By the way, they used SEVEN police officers to arrest her for this "heinous crime." 

Today, Australia continues the Left's proud tradition of punishing autistic children for ungoodthink by suspending a 10-year-old autistic girl for telling a 'trans-identifying' student to use the boys' restroom.

This is ridiculous and stupid. Not The Bee reports:

If you know anything about autism you know how ridiculous this story is.

A 10-year-old autistic Australian girl was suspended from school recently after encountering a trans-identifying boy in the girls' restroom and asking him to use the boys' room.

A two-day suspension for an autistic 10-year-old who, due to the way her brain is wired, simply told the truth to another student. That's what autistic kids do, they tell the truth. Everything that is true is true, and everything that is false is false. So when a boy walks into the girls' room, even if he's dressed like a girl, an autistic child is bound to make a deal out of it — because it's extremely confusing.

The school suspended her for 'behaving in a manner that posed a danger, whether actual, perceived or threatened, to the health, safety, or wellbeing of any person.'

'Perceived' means that anything -- anything -- can be a 'danger' because everyone has a different perception of the same even. It's some Orwellian insanity.

So insane even Elon Musk noticed:

Elon Musk (@elonmusk) ~ {Replying to @Not_the_Bee} !

That says it all.

Carol (@1971SuzieQ) ~ “Whether actual, perceived or threatened.” How could anyone NOT offend someone? What about the safety of the young girl?

The entire point is that anything you say can be offensive to someone. It gives the Left MASSIVE amounts of control. Which is the entire point.

JustHereForTheEntertainment (@tvlover66) ~
All demographics previously adored by the left have all become secondary to T:
Women < T
Children < T
Elderly < T
Mentally handicapped < T
Lesbian < T
Gay < T
POCs < T.
Lib's assigned victimhood status has a hierarchy and T always takes precedence.

Isn't intersectionality grand? There's always a hierarchy. And it's subject to change on a whim.

Rocco Speranza (@R0cco_Speranza) ~ As someone on the spectrum, being suspended for doing nothing wrong would cause me far more emotional stress - fate sure does love irony ...

Some emotional stress is more equal than others.

Meggles (@Meggles_1) ~ I'm not autistic, so maybe I'm off-base here ... but, I have to wonder how the hell people with autism are supposed to understand the ever-changing social rules??? Maybe someone with more experience can help me understand.

You're not off-base. Autism is classified by many things, but it impacts social interaction and communication skills, and those on the spectrum are often very literal people. They don't grasp these social rules, which makes them a target-rich population for the perpetually aggrieved.

Ari Teman (@AriTeman) ~ Victoria is a beautiful, dystopian police state whose heroes beat the elderly for not wearing masks and punish children with special needs for speaking the truth.

Its gorgeous galleries & gardens were created so they'd have more locations for signs warning you about fines.

Perfectly stated.

Dirk Hardpec (@Eat_punchbeef) ~ Damn, @Australia really hates autistic people.

No lies detected.

McGarveyton (@McGarveyton) ~ Uh, the boy going in the girls restroom is “behaving in a manner that posed a danger, whether actual, perceived or threatened, to the health, safety, or wellbeing of any person.”

Nailed it. But the Left has a flowchart of whose perceived danger trumps someone else's. 'Trans-identifying' student wins over autistic girl in the bathroom.

Which flies in the face of things we've been taught since childhood about trusting our gut when it comes to our safety: we're supposed to ignore those very real feelings so we don't offend someone, even if it means putting ourselves or our daughters in danger.

Sad state of affairs.

Richard Morris (@AScotinExile) ~ It seems to me that the school's behaviour to the autistic girl was "behaving in a manner that posed a danger, whether actual, perceived or threatened, to the health, safety or wellbeing of any person."

Yes. Yes it was.

Jon (@JonnyThePhoenix) ~ The entire Western world is collapsing into evil absurdity. All in the name of tolerance. If I wasn't living through it, I would not believe it possible.

Yeah, fascist libtardism is a virulent disease that has quickly raged through the weak-minded people in this world. 

And we get to watch it unfold in real time.

BB (@BobsBlitz) ~ Australia sucks. This is disgusting.

Yep, these idiots are just setting themselves and everyone else up for a fall to the tyrannical likes of Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin & Kim Jong Un. Of course, they're leftists, so maybe they want communists to take over. 

Penal colonies gonna penal colony, we guess. But at least the gardens are lovely.

Sean Kelly (@skenzyme) ~ Neurodiversity will never be tolerated by the woke. They need everyone unquestioningly onboard with their delusions.

Yes, because, in truth, woketards are rabidly intolerant of others. THEY are what they profess to despise. 

It can't be tolerated. It gets in the way of the agenda.

Will there be camps? Fairfax County decrees 're-education' for students, hides it from parents

It's not a good time to be a Northern Virginia Democrat, particularly when it comes to schools. For a while, it was a great time. Officials in counties like Loudoun and Fairfax could do whatever they wanted, no matter how unethical or illegal, with zero repercussions.

But elections have consequences. In just the past few weeks, Loudoun County Superintendant Scott Zeigler was found guilty of retaliating against a teacher who exposed sexual assaults in Loudoun schools, courts unsealed records showing how Loudoun County officials covered up those assaults, Governor Glenn Younkin pardoned the father who was being railroaded for standing up for his daughter who was a victim of those assaults, and Attorney General Jason Miyares is investigating Fairfax officials for corruption and election interference. (And this isn't even getting into the Susanna Gibson x-rated saga.)

Now comes even more bad news out of Fairfax County. On Monday, The Washington Examiner published an op-ed from Fairfax parent and Independent Women's Network (IWN) member Stephanie Lundquist-Arora with damning accusations against Fairfax County schools and its Chief Equity Officer.

Harry Jackson (@HarryJ4Justice) ~ Is Fairfax County Public Schools’s chief equity officer hiding its student reeducation training from parents?

First of all, why does a school district need a 'Chief Equity Officer'?

Uploaded Image

But setting that aside for the moment, the allegations made by Lundquist-Arora are damning.

Fairfax County’s school district updated its code of conduct this year to include a 'required culturally responsive, learning intervention' for students with first-time 'hate speech' infractions. In Fairfax County, hate speech is defined in the broadest sense possible to include 'misgendering.'

The Fairfax 'Code of Conduct' alone is horrific. It includes the right of students 'to a school and classroom environment that affirms the identity of all students' and 'the right to access restroom and locker room facilities and other non-stigmatizing accommodations that are consistent with the student’s gender identity.'

Here is the same school district's definition of 'hate speech':

Any form of expression intended to humiliate or incite hatred against a group or class of persons based upon their actual or perceived race, ethnicity, color, national origin, citizenship/immigration status, weight, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, or disability.

'Actual or perceived.' Read that again. Identify as a non-binary, person of color from Botswana? Everyone must affirm that. Identify as disabled? Affirm that too. Identify as weighing 100 pounds when you weigh 180? Yep, you're in.

But it gets so much worse. As a concerned parent, Lundquist-Arora tried to contact the school district to get clarification on the vague rules and what is involved with 're-education.'

I emailed the district’s superintendent, Michelle Reid, to inquire who is responsible for leading this 'learning intervention' and what it entails. Reid forwarded my request to her team, including the district’s chief equity officer, Nardos King.

Several days later, I emailed Reid and King for a status update on the training. There was no response.

The following week, I emailed them again, this time with the PPRA office’s email address copied. That day, Reid responded, “After checking in with the team, these are still under development and will be shared as soon as they are completed.”

Maybe they're still wrestling with the best way to waterboard students who don't immediately, submissively comply with the woketard hive mind, eh? 

Beg your pardon? You are implementing re-education for students for the current school year and you haven't even completed the guidelines? But that didn't stop you from forcing students to take a quiz on the code of conduct, did it?

Regarding the reeducation training, parents are left wondering: Are Fairfax administrators incompetent, or are they trying to hide something?

In fairness, either of these two explanations is possible. The district’s superintendent and school board members are in favor of hiding children’s gender identities from their parents, so it would not be surprising if they are hiding the training materials as well. And about Fairfax’s competence, I am less than confident in the district’s administrators.

As for Chief Equity Officer King herself, her current salary is over $230,000 per year (and we still can't figure out the work she does to justify a quarter million), even though the district's salary guidelines for teachers max out at $130,000. Administrators in Fairfax County are doing quite well for themselves:

Lundquist-Arora also questions why King was promoted to this position when, as a school principal in Alexandria, Virginia, she advertised a weight loss and sex enhancement product called 'Body Magic' in the school yearbook. A product that she sold.

Jo-Anne Sears (@JoAnnePSears) ~ @FCPSSupt - as a reminder your so-called equal outcomes expert "Dr." Nardos King, after she slinked away for putting an ad an @fcpsnews school yearbook selling her snake oil, went to @BaltCitySchools. You might have promoted a 🍋.

A final question from Lundquist-Arora:

Is her unresponsiveness and failure to produce training materials born out of incompetence or something more nefarious? The answer is likely both.

Yes. Embrace the power of 'AND.'

AnneB (@AnneB5191536) ~ She's both incompetent and hiding information from the community. This is a #mustread for voters in Fairfax County.

It's also interesting that King deactivated her Twitter account. She hardly seems interested in responding to the questions and serving the needs of parents in her school district.

Norma Margulies (@MarguliesNorma) ~ Care to comment @FCPSSupt ? BTW - we note that Dr. Nardos King LEFT this platform. Please convey to her our kind request for comments.

Given the runaround that Superintendent Reid gave to Lundquist-Arora, don't expect a response anytime soon.

For the moment, the concerns made public by Lundquist-Arora are only allegations leveled by a concerned parent. However, given the history of Northern Virginia school districts and their now-proven coverups and illicit behavior, you will forgive us for thinking that there is probably some fire related to the smoke we see here too.
