“She is irreplaceable, not only a good teacher, but significantly more importantly she is the kindest and most caring person I have ever met in my life,” one supporter commented.

My mom's (teacher) old boss (principal) literally told her that she shouldn't even know what the kids do after they leave school, basically saying she shouldn't care about the kids.

Like why the fuck else do you become a teacher?!

Probably because the most powerful conservatives all got to grow up in abusive boarding schools that disfigured their souls, deleted their empathy, and taught them how to savagely bully their way into power, humanity be damned.
