    See this is what it feels like. I'm trans myself and have looked into it all and you can see a clear path of transphobia. Starting from loose comments, then donating a large amount of money to transphobic TERFs and then justifying herself in in a great big paper that made things worse. I'm not saying everyone should search up everything but should be critical I will say though, I grew up with Harry Potter and I will still consume the media because in my opinion, my joy out ways my little bit does. Though I pirate films and either read old books or pirate those online too. Just cheaper

If you want to call all women who hold that belief "TERFs" (regardless of if they are even radical feminists), that is the result of your ideology about gender identity theory, an ideology the rest of us are legally allowed to not believe in.

    It's not social media. People have always based their opinions on what other people have said, whether that is friends and family or people in the local pub. Social media has just raised the profile of the issue. It would be better for the world if more of us (and I include myself in this) could be more comfortable with saying. "You know what, I don't have an opinion on that issue as I don't know enough about it, but let me go away and think about it".

But it's vitally important to consider that there are many other examples of Rowling being transp hobic. In no way should either he or the student be jumping to conclusions on whether OTHER people are justified in THEIR atta cks on Rowling which may be related, for example, to her misinformed essay against transwomen in womens' spaces. Until that question, the teacher was doing very well; just had to had in a biased jump to conclusions at the very end.

    This is how REAL teachers teach. Instead of taking a stance and only teaching based on that they teach their students how to think for themselves and define their own values for themselves. He taught only the ability to research so the student could find or not find evidence to support their argument. The students convinced themselves they were wrong in their own eyes. He did not just say "you are wrong". Too many people in the profession now don't understand how to teach like this and even more don't seem to care to.

But you're not going to. You'd rather assume that none such example exists because that goes along with YOUR opinions. Confirmation bias applies to everyone, even me. In any case, the reason I'm not going out to check is because it doesn't matter. The point was the teacher guiding the student through reevaluating his stances which he discovers he doesn't actually agree with under further inspection. For all it matters J.K. Rowling's tweet was one of opinion and meant in a more symbolic stance. The teacher is not supporting J.K. Rowling in this or saying that what she says is true. He's simply asking the student to look deeper into the stances he thought he held, but on closer inspection doesn't, which is something we all should do. Whether there was more to the tweet or not is a question of hypotheticals and otherwise not relevant to the discussion at hand. You prefer to interpret everything as a political statement, and any doubt of your beliefs is an attack against your identity. Any discussion that might rebuke parts of your ideology is suddenly offensive to you. Please learn to be more empathetic with your fellow man, to consider what others are saying, because we all have reasons for doing what we do and it's important to understand them. I believe in you. You can do better.

And I'm asking what kind of critical thinking skills don't include asking the student if he gained his opinion from the tweet alone or within the context of the tweet and any other information he had on the matter? But where does politics come in to any of this? Rowling has made explicitly transphobic comments, and taken explicitly transphobic actions. If I have pointed out that these play into the hands of reactionaries and fascists it is in response to other remarks made to me. But the view that trans people exist is not political. It is a belief I hold. One that I think is based on sound information. And there is good reason to believe that there is more than a simple lesson in how to think going on in this video. And there certainly is among many of the people responding to it here. It could be yourself included. I would have to look back at your other comments. And I have to say that is too much effort at the moment. I could guess, or you could tell me, or you could repeat that it is irrelevant.

    I disagree there's a problem here given his age and willingness to learn. Maybe the guy doesn't use twitter, maybe he's not that interested in the debate, and has heard a common trope about a very famous author and a very famous set of books. And when the guy has said throw a challenging subject at me, he's automatically used a very worldwide challenging subject. He's young, he's learning, no one knows everything and he's taken it on board. The problem is the people who don't question it when presented with a response. I think good on the student for opening his mind, not getting angry or confrontational, and seeing the other side.

Whether or not a message is based on falsehood, whether or not the vehicle for this message is one steeped in deceit, "it doesn't change the message"? Oh I think it does. If the message is sound, then it has no excuse to be expressed in a manner of lies. I do not "like to believe it's staged because [I] disagree" - I am inclined to believe it is staged because it is obviously staged. If it made the opposite point, one that I agree with, I would still point out that it is staged. The conversation seems inorganic, it is unclear just what this man is a professor of and what class he is teaching, you cannot hear the rest of the class, he refers to "these guys" at the start of the video but it seems that the conversation is played out between "the professor" and the off-camera "student"... None of this is definitive proof but I can say with absolute confidence that the conversation in this video is unlike any conversation I have ever been in or witnessed in the real world - never mind in a school between a student and professor. I have never been alone in a room after class with my professor filming a conversation with them. I do not know how that would come about - I don't know a student or professor who would be willing to or have the time to do any of this and upload it to KZread, especially talking about this specific (highly controversial) topic. It is incredibly fishy. But what you have expressed is that you do not care whether or not it is staged. You believe the message is true, so it doesn't matter that it's staged. If it turned out that the moon landing footage had been staged (and I obviously don't think it was) and this had been proved with very little room for conceivable doubt, would you be arguing that "well, it doesn't matter, because those astronauts clearly went to the moon!" That is preposterous. "staged or not, it doesn't change the message" - give me a break. Yeah, it doesn't change the message, but it CERTAINLY changes the credibility of it as it is being expressed in this instance, and that of who is expressing it.

They then taught us about all kinds of manipulations used by groups large and small, including using kids at school or in the neighborhood to pressure other kids. We were trained to analyze and think critically about what our teachers taught, and how to stand up for what we believed, out loud, and withstand peer and teacher pressure, all before the onslaught of peer pressure of kindergarten. Young kids can and should be taught all this well before kindergarten. The gender identity gibberish is being inculcated in preschool now. Parents beware and teach your kids early.

Instead, he calmly and respectfully lead the student through a discourse that showed him the errors in his thinking. these people that we call "sheep" (and, trust me, I've been guilty of this far too often as well) are not sheep. they are people. a sheep does not have the ability to learn to think critically, a human does. if we want the "sheep" to learn, we need to treat them with respect and dignity, and help them to see the gaps in their thinking processes, just as this shining example of a teacher did in this video.

    he shouldn't feel like an idiot, at least not alone. they both should feel like idiots because two tweets are hardly the breadth of trouble she starts, all aimed at one particular group. i'm not trans and i'm not an activist on their behalf... but rowling has brought all this on herself and yes, many of her tweets ARE transphobic, which is likely why he found one of the apologies. but there's a lot more to her online activities, and she'd be wise to not have made those comments, attack people or continue it, yet she just will not stop causing trouble. critical thinking yes, but two tweets are from the whole story or even representative of he words and attitudes and repeated unnecessary attacks

    To be fair we really can't have an opinion on everything. The problem is that he still says "given that she is bigoted". I actually have no objection to "I have heard she is a bigot" from anyone who is willing to do the work if it matters. It's the ones who would never research it that are the problem. It's like "I've heard OJ Simpson was a murderer". Notably words like bigot (and Nazi etc.) get thrown around so much that I'm less likely to believe someone is a bigot than a murderer until it matters enough for me to research it. The other massive problem is that if you try to research it you get hit pieces that weave together a bunch of partial quotes out of context with incorrect paraphrases and the author's incorrect opinion (e.g. the goblin bankers represent Jews).

This was taught by Socrates, over 1,620 years ago, as a method to develop critical thinking for oneself. He was put to death for teaching it. Not much has changed in education, it seems.

But if there’s no pressure or “rules” and only an inquiry, the thought experiment can have the space and time it needs to happen. If we want to see this sort of healthy thought process on a mass scale, we’re all going to need to allow others the time and space they need to come to THEIR own conclusions-not everyone or anyone else’s conclusions. We g it’s important to you enough, maybe you can try to inquire calmly like this professor when confronted with someone who you and I likely both agree is an idiot. 😆 But for real, that’s what it will take.

We are communal animals with a need to feel secure in our peer groups, and that is what gets exploited by those that use divide & rule. It’s all about keeping attention away from the real crimes.

    None of this is critical thinking. He's just going through one dog whistle filled statement and ignoring all context, intent, current events, subtext, and double speak. This video is a clueless simp proving he doesn't understand what dog whistles are and relies entirely on the pedantic nitpicking dictionary definitions only debate style of Ben Shapiro. At the end of the day, we are all judged by the company we keep. Joanne's stans deserve to be judged just as harshly as the actual nazi propagandists Joanne has spent the last 5 years palling around with.

    If he said that Rowling was transphobic, to a great many of university teachers, they'd pat him on the head, tell him what a good student he was and give him an A on his next assignment. No one would ever state why they think that because they don't have to. Dogma is to be repeated not to be discussed or induce thought.

    This is why it's like a witch hunt. Back in the day, when someone was called a witch, if you didn't agree (note not even going as far as disagreeing) it meant you were probably a witch. And if you in any way tried to defend a witch, then this was proof that you were definitely a witch. And the best way to make sure you weren't accused of being a witch was to accuse someone else because a witch wouldn't accuse a fellow witch. Nowadays we have other things to accuse people of, like being a racist, sexist, homophobic or transphobic. And while some people are those things, most people aren't. And by saying that I prove (to some people) that I'm all of those things. And there is no evidence I can offer that will prove me not guilty. My only option is to admit to being and to promise to try and do better (by calling someone else a racist, sexist, homophobic or transphobic). It's a very basic social lever that's been in use in small groups for thousands of years (think back to high-school). But every once in a while it goes viral, and then humanity spends the next few hundred years pretending that they weren't part of it.

    I was in 2nd grade when we learned the distinction between fact and opinion. We spent at least a week on that unit. That was around 1983 or 84. It was strange to me at first that other people didn’t understand this, but then I realized that 3 decades have gone by and 20-somethings probably were not taught that. But things will change, they already are. Humans don’t like to be told what to do or how to think and the backlash is already starting in that generation. 🎉❤
