According to Meta’s “Hateful Conduct” policy, it is fully acceptable for someone to call me mentally ill, because I’m gay. All transgender people can also be targeted. Because … “discourse.” The gist, I guess, is that if enough people hate us, Meta says it’s okay to publicly express that hatred.

One of the biggest problems of grades is how they’ve been so thoroughly naturalized, as though they must continue existing because they already exist. This fails to recognize they are a recent technology (only popularized in the last 60 years). And that there is little research to support their use.

Do a quick google search for the words “grub” and “grubber." These are not words any of us should be using to describe students.

The problem with "grade-grubbing" is grades, not "grubbing."
