I just checked in on the Teachers Forum on Reddit to see how they are holding up after the election.  You would need a heart of stone not to laugh at this post.

Reddit: first_time_in_my_teaching_career

This is allegedly from a AP Gov teacher.  It is long and fraught, and describes the reaction of students to Trump being elected.  Let’s focus on quotes from her students.

So, to give my students the voice they so rightfully deserve; here is a list of quotes from our discussion today.

“He won,and I am terrified. But even if she won, I would still be scared.”- A sophomore girl who had been kicked out after her parents found out she was gay.

“I feel like the people who want to be protectors, are showing women why they have to do everything for themselves.”-A freshman boy,who frequently quotes Andrew Tate.

“I’m sorry Ms… this country has failed you.”- A sophomore boy who I have to gaslight into coming to class.

“I watched my mom hold my baby sister cry Trump won the first time. This morning, she held us both tight crying before she went to work.”-A sophomore girl of a single mother.

“I’m scared.”-Many Students

“Law and Order my ass”-A freshman non-binary student who LOVES playing devils advocate.

“I can’t even make a joke about this. I am so tired Ms… I dont even feel like making jokes.”-A sophomore girl, who I constantly have to tell to stop talking in my class every day.

“Ms…You as a woman have taught me how to be a man. I am so sorry you have to continue teaching about this, basically raising the children of American. And you will never be recognized for it because of your gender.”-A senior boy I had during student teaching, who I fed every single day because his family couldn’t afford to eat.

“Ms…Can I please stay in here today? I just feel safer here.”-A freshman boy who had been bullied for being ‘gay’…he wasn’t gay.

It’s funny because none of this ever happened.  It isn’t plausible.  Each one is a liberal trope.  Somehow, there isn’t a tear-jerker about a girl afraid that Trump is going to cancel her abortion appointment.

The person posting this removed her name after posting.  That also indicates that it’s fake.

Most of the comments are of two types.

The first type are the people calling the post “fan fiction” or otherwise indicating it’s completely phony.

The other type, are from other Gov teachers saying that their students didn’t mention the election.

There are several other fantasy posts on Reddit that are similar to this.
