A bunch of eighth graders in a “wealthy Philadelphia suburb” recently targeted teachers with an extreme online harassment campaign that The New York Times reported was “the first known group TikTok attack of its kind by middle schoolers on their teachers in the United States.”
According to The Times, the Great Valley Middle School students created at least 22 fake accounts impersonating about 20 teachers in offensive ways. The fake accounts portrayed long-time, dedicated teachers sharing “pedophilia innuendo, racist memes,” and homophobic posts, as well as posts fabricating “sexual hookups among teachers.”
Adults are wildly overreacting to some kids being jerks. Part of being an adult is tolerating other people saying things you don’t like. American schools are authoritarian nightmares.
Yes, part of being an adult is to allow others to baselessly accuse you of pedophilia.
Should we start with you?
What, y’all didn’t know dank is a pedo?
It works better if you know their name, what they look like, and place of employment from the beginning.
Yeah I’m not really seeing the harassment angle when you have to track these kids down on TikTok to see the videos.
