In a shocking, horrifying incident at Shawnee Mission East High School, a Black student was hospitalized after being attacked by a white male student. Despite being the victim, she faces suspension in a case highlighting systemic racism and administrative negligence.
They forgot that in the title. But I’m sure it was just an honest mistake…
Also that dude fights like a bitch.
Why would the obvious outcome need to be in the title? The problem being highlighted is punishing the victim.
Because it’s a misrepresentation of the situation, a better title would be: “School Hate Crime: Racist Kid Yells “N Word” While Attacking Black Girl, Breaks Her Nose And Hospitalizes Her, but both get suspended”
Is this normal in lemmy now? The guys has a good point, but got more downpoints.
Yeah the rosy days of Lemmy that invited discourse only lasted a few months.
Because it’s not obvious at all and because it’s blatantly misrepresenting the situation?
Yeah bro, that title and description are definitely not trying to race bait folks 👍
Doesn’t belong in the title. No victim blaming.
How does “a bitch” fight? Doesn’t seem like you have much respect for women either.
What you talking about?
Including the bull’s suspension as well in the title wouldn’t be victim blaming, it’s not even like victim blaming adjacent.
“student punches another student and gets suspended”
I don’t see any victim blame whatsoever here… Why is your comment in the negative? There’s something unspoken behind conversations like this and I have absolutely no clue what exactly that is…
I understand the downvotes for comments along the lines of “there’s two sides to any argument”… I understand the victim blaming aspect of that, but “the bully got suspended”? I’m missing something…
Anyone?
It absolutely belongs in the title, and it’s not victim blaming, it’s just the relevant facts of the situation.
Any number of ways but in this specific instance, it’s swinging your fists like a hammer.
