    Wrote too much in her reasoning. “This is a scientific class, this is not a scientific response. Fail.” is all that is required.

    The more you write, the more they can hang you with. The administration can ask for further details and just raising the “demonic” part alone would be more than enough to justify it, behind closed doors, where it isn’t used in propaganda through social media drama.

      Yes. I don’t want to police how a trans professor responds to an assignment that amounted to a personal attack, but she did give them ammo by saying it was “offensive”. The chuds will ignore everything else and claim the student failed because she hurt the professor’s feelings.

        Yes exactly. If someone is handing in an essay like that then the assumption should be bad faith. This teacher responded very naively, or perhaps thought that their verbose explanations would be of benefit rather than harm, the problem is that the more you write the more there is to pick at. A one liner fail is boring for social media, a huge response is easy propaganda.
