This teacher, sadly, is far from unique.
We are living in sad and ugly times in this country when a teacher giggles and brags about losing the American Flag (and admitting the flag itself bothered her) and then suggesting her students say the Pledge of Allegiance to the pride flag.
And she admitted ALL of this like it was a good thing on Tik Tok.

She’s so damn amused with herself.
We imagine the parents of the kids in her classroom wouldn’t be quite as amused …
We don’t think she’s funny.
And neither does her school district, apparently:
A personal post by a teacher about the American flag is causing alarm/concern. Respecting our flag is a value we instill in students and is an expectation of our staff. We take this matter with extreme seriousness and are investigating and addressing it.

Not exactly holding our breath that anything will be done with this horrific teacher who teaches English as a second language … we’ll keep an eye on it.
Her Tik Tok account gets worse, of course:

She pledges allegiance to all the queers.
Bless her little heart.

Told you guys, the country is a mess.
Patricia Heaton perhaps said it best:
I’ve been reading about our fallen heroes all day, and then to see this…it made me weep. https://t.co/TaARsaWGHm

This.
All day this.
Not a grateful bone in her body. Sad and toxic for her students.

Proud of where I come from and how I said the pledge every morning in the same school that raised this young man. Watch the video. Those flags aren't lost or forgotten.https://t.co/hY9mesnz2F

This does not represent all teachers. I don’t get political with the students. Ever.
