New wuestion, what is the worst change in your life in the last four years and what how do you expect it to get better/worse depending on who wins
Well I almost joined the National Guard but now I'm banned from joining.
How do you think your life changed because you missed the opportunity?
Well I most likely would've been deployed out to help fight the wildfires and to suppress the protests, so...
I mean do you feel like you missed any opportunities for personal growth or achievement? Or maybe you found new ones?

There are freedoms and rights Americans enjoy no matter who you are like freedom of speech for example. People use freedom of speech to say various things and disagree with what other groups use that freedom for. So much so that they'll try to write into law banning opposing views.
The purpose of American institutions is to protect fundamental rights for all sides to use. When one group tries to change these institutions, it threatens the equal use of rights. I just think Democrats under Biden are more likely to push (and most importantly), succeed in changing American institutions for their gain
What is the "Grand plan" of Democrats? Because all I see for the "Grand plan" of Republicans is depriving racial minorities of civil rights, oppressing sexual minorities on account of religious bias, and devaluing the public appreciation of scientific consensus. You are literally a service to continuous stupidity if you vote for a Republican candidate. Trump's entire presidency has hinged on his abuse of the distribution of information. He literally thrives off of your own intellectual incompetence. Neither party actually will properly service humanity, but Republican values are truly pathetic.
You have a right to speak your mind, but there is a greater value in being able to accurately demonstrate a particular viewpoint is just stupid or unethical, and to stop them from spreading their corrosive viewpoints. Freedom of speech has limits, at some point you have to actively make attempts to prevent people from saying things that ultimately harm people- Which is what Trump supporters do.
You can think whatever you want about Republicans. I just think they're less dangerous to the system than Democrats right now

I remain unconvinced that Donald Trump's long-term influence on the United States has been (And will be) anything more than intellectual erosion of the population
I think it's the other way around
If the population was anywhere near smart, he wouldn't have risen to prominence in the first place
At least Trump hasn't written into law anything to change the institutions of America. You could argue his presence has been bad for the image but for all his talk, he hasn't changed any fundamental part of the government. I'm more concerned Democrats will try to change the structures of government to meet their agendas especially with the court packing talk lately
I don’t care about “Institutions of America,” there isn’t an ounce of patriotism in my body. Topple the system. The current structure of the United States government intrinsically operates on effective raping of the poor and disadvantaged. Voting for Trump is admitting intellectual deficiency and ethical vacancy. Trump supporters have defunct perspectives foresight or empathy, and I honestly pity them.
It's not so much changing the institutions I have a problem with. It's changing it to fit your agenda. There's no limiting principle when you go that route
What do you think “That route” is?

I don't like Trump or Biden so I wasn't going to vote but thinking about it more, I might vote for Trump just so we don't get Biden
Thoughts?

Still teaching, but I‘m hoping to at least be doing a few physics classes considering that’s what my certification is in. I love teaching ninth grade science, but I want to do more advanced material a lot of the time.
My school has offered astronomy classes as electives before, but COVID kind of strangulated the range of things we can teach. But I think I’ll be able to put that together in the next few years.
You're a teacher?
How old are you
he's younger than me, so if he's more than a tutor or some shit, that's kind of shocking
it wouldn't actually be the first time he's exaggerated his accomplishments
Maybe you should let people respond and not make assumptions yeah?

Not to speak for him, but he probably graduated in the spring and started this fall.
Yep, finished my college career right at the start of COVID, now I get to teach during it. It’s a pretty bizarre year to start and it’s come with a lot of challenges, but I’m lucky to have two very kind and helpful mentors who’ve helped guide me through a lot of it.
Even veteran teachers are struggling this year because of how hybrid models need to be conducted, so I’m having a lot thrown at me all at once. I have some great support systems, and honestly after this year (Assuming things die down), teaching will be comparatively easier.
I’ve begun to settle down and adjust, though. The first few weeks were horribly stressful.
Do you notice any difference between you and the older teachers when it comes to implementing online teaching?
You might actually be situated better to build online classes because of your age
I certainly can empathize with my students about the difficulties of online instruction, knowing first-hand what it feels like to be forced to adjust to an entirely new, disassociated scheme for education. Although a number have managed to deduce it, I try not to he too obvious with my age and how recently I graduated form college, just to help keep that professional barrier between my students and I. While I consider myself pretty casual in the way I present myself in school, I don’t want them to just see me as a “Friend” they can mess around with. But they seem to be responsive enough, so I think I’ve struck an okay balance.
The thing is, being the newest of the team, I’m trying more so to adopt the work from my mentors and only occasionally will make any kind of modification to lesson plans, because I’m still new at the end of the day, and try to respect my mentor’s structure of assignments and presentation. I don’t want to walk in acting like “Nah, I can do this my own way.” I have to use what materials and methods are given to me and will always remind myself that this course has been taught successfully for many years before me, and my mentors know what they’re doing (Even if occasionally I don’t particularly like what I’m being asked to do). I will eventually earn the right to add my own twists to things, but for now, I want to watch and learn from the masters.
We have to keep a cohesive narrative across our different classes.
That's a good mindset to have I thought about becoming a teacher when I was younger but I don't think I could connect with students very well Are you having any trouble with them or are you the cool teacher?

As a student, I can say that students across the country either sank or swam during this period. For me, I kinda did both. In terms of learning, I absolutely sank. We have professors trying to explain how to calculate convection rates of various liquids through a 144p webcam and a mic pulled straight from an MW2 lobby. I'm also taking a surveying class where it's vital we go out into the field to set up equipment and actually survey a physical area. Instead, the professor does the surveying for us, gathers all the data, and sometimes we literally just upload the data they gathered back to them for a 1OO. Im not learning shit. In terms of grades however, they're offering everyone the opportunity to change grading to pass/fail so it can't negatively affect your GPA. Also most tests are easier and open notes. And since assignments are online there's more opportunity to uh find answers elsewhere. So it's a weird thing where I'll end up having a higher GPA while at the same time learning less. But a lot of people need that face to face component even if it's same material so a lot of people aren't doing well. I don't know anybody that's actively benefiting from learning online. It's either worse or about the same.
My brothers in high school have it worse. They're teenagers and need that social interaction that comes from high school. I mean my brother is spending senior year online. That's fucking terrible. So kids around the world are definitely having a huge blow to their development. Also college professors are better at operating technology than high school boomer teachers. These teachers can't even full screen a youtube video and now they're in charge of designing an entire course online. Not to mention they're not getting the support they need because everyone thinks this is temporary. It is temporary but they haven't invested anything in terms of material the teachers need to effectively teach.
So by the end of this thing at least a whole year of children and college students' time would have been wasted and I'm really concerned for the mental health and development of younger kids who need to be with others
