How is it acceptable anywhere for someone to be expelled for hitting someone else, in a scenario like this where the cause is completely understandable and justifiable? If anything, the kid making deepfake porn should be the one expelled because that kinda thing can be legitimately life-ruining for its target. The person being expelled had every reason, right, and justification to throw hands.
I'm probably sounding like Ailurus here, but this is screwed up.
Also, isn't deepfake porn a crime in a lot of places even if it's of adults, and not of kids like in this case, which CP is already hella illegal on its own?
Zero tolerance for physical violence: they say it's always unacceptable (exactly like that, I imagine)
So expel the victim of a potentially life-ruining act and also a potential crime, and not the person making the deepfake porn. That makes perfect sense.
/sarcasmReally, that deepfake porn is going to do worse damage to someone who isn't even in high school yet, than a slug to the face ever will; that black-eye will heal, the reputational damage caused by someone making deepfake porn of you, not so much, and deepfake porn is a crime in a lot of places to boot.
Oh, and btw, that person was let back in on probation with that expulsion still on her record, if I were in charge of that school district, I would've expunged her record and let her back in with whatever achievements she would've had prior to expulsion fully restored, assuming that's possible, as her acts were fully justifiable IMO, and instead I would've expelled the person making and posting the deepfake porn, and potentially pressed charges if deepfake porn is illegal in a given state/province, which is an act that's far worse than slugging a person as it causes permanent damage to a person's reputation; like I said, a black-eye will heal, reputational damage caused by deepfake porn won't.
UPDATE: Charges were pressed against the guy sending the deepfake porn.
