Academics Union Prez Randi Weingarten Promotes Instrument to Delete Embarrassing Social Media Historical past After Getting Truth-Checked

I can all the time rely on the President of the American Federation of Academics, Randi Weingarten, to say one thing or tweet one thing ridiculous any given week. They are saying tyrants get extra erratic and harmful once they notice their energy is beginning to slip. It appears as if Randi is feeling her affect slip via her tightening fist.

She lately testified to Congress about her position within the college closures throughout COVID and her direct line of affect on former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, by which she tried to retell historical past to color herself as a hero versus a villain.

Because of Elon Musk shopping for Twitter, Weingarten wasn’t in a position to completely get away with rewriting historical past – her claims have been repeatedly nailed by Twitter’s Group Notes, their model of fact-checks.

Right here’s only one instance:

Sure we did @kbelokopitsky . We labored collectively 3 years in the past to get our children again to in particular person education in a manner that was secure for teenagers & workers. There was a lot unknown & a lot worry. NY helped w/wanted science backed steerage & sources. Fairly a distinction then from DeVos & DeSantis. https://t.co/XOgpknTOZy

Realizing maybe too late that the web is endlessly, Randi is now propping up a synthetic intelligence device for her union minions and educators to assist scrub previous embarrassing social media posts.

Do you scent that? – It’s known as desperation.

Isn’t It Ironic?

Randi wrote a tweet this week alerting her union members and educators of a brand new service AFT is providing paying members known as LifeBrand:

“Our union is right here for you that can assist you future-proof your social media. @AFTunion has partnered w/LifeBrand for a 25% low cost off the price of this highly effective device that scans your social media to catch forgotten posts that will not replicate who you might be at present.”

Our union is right here for you that can assist you future-proof your social media. @AFTunion has partnered w/LifeBrand for a 25% low cost off the price of this highly effective device that scans your social media to catch forgotten posts that will not replicate who you might be at present https://t.co/2rvadER4he

— Randi Weingarten 🇺🇦🇺🇸💪🏿👩‍🎓 (@rweingarten) May 9, 2023

In keeping with the AFT website, LifeBrand is a “Main AI-powered device…” simply what the world wants; a union chief advocating for AI to cowl up inconvenient speech. This tweet is deliciously timed after her failed makes an attempt to gaslight Individuals into believing she advocated for opening colleges as quickly as attainable throughout COVID.

Because of Group Notes on Twitter, customers have been in a position to remind her repeatedly about how she did all the things in her energy to maintain colleges closed. For instance when she called President Trump’s push to reopen colleges “reckless, callous, and merciless” two years in the past.

Or the time she endorsed what have been known as “security strikes” by lecturers. Too dangerous LifeBrand wasn’t in a position to delete the entire previous!

Guidelines For Thee, Solely Thee

Randi is making an attempt to promote a product beneath a false pretense. Her plug for LifeBrand makes it sound innocuous; in any case, most people change over time, and many people most likely want we might delete earlier social media posts because of the pure passage of time. 

For instance, I as soon as thought bangs have been an amazing vogue assertion, and believed commenting on each enticing male actor was one thing the social media-verse would care two figs about. Nonetheless, the actual function of LifeBrand is to attempt to keep away from being canceled. Or fact-checked.

How wealthy is that? An individual like Randi who ascribes to a political ideology that prides itself in canceling these they disagree with, desperately making an attempt to maintain from getting canceled.

What on Earth will Libs of TikTok do if green-haired, face-pierced, nonbinary unhinged educators can erase outdated movies and posts of themselves advocating for sexualizing preschoolers? On condition that the world has by no means been with out idiots, one thing tells me they’ll nonetheless have loads of materials to select from.

Frequent Flier

Typically it’s simple to neglect what Randi’s precise job is. In case you comply with her Twitter account, which I do, she spends half the time, if no more, tweeting about subjects that relate under no circumstances to American educators or American kids.

Take a wild guess on the place Randi spent this week. It wasn’t Baltimore to determine why excessive schoolers there don’t know how one can learn.

It wasn’t Loudoun County to seek out out why mother and father and the varsity board nonetheless need assistance discovering widespread floor. And it positive the hell wasn’t in DC to debate with Secretary of Training Miguel Cardona the sport plan on how they may catch up America’s kids in math, studying, and historical past. 

As an alternative, she traveled to Ukraine… for the third time. I feel that solely places her two extra visits away on her Assist Ukraine Go to Punch Card, after which she will get a free knife set.

At the moment, we met with @Vitaliy_Klychko the Mayor of Kyiv, #OlsenLisovii, the Training Minister and school on the College of Kyiv. Tomorrow, we see Ok-12 colleges. They ‘re all targeted on the way forward for Ukraine, the rebuilding & the very important significance of training. #standwithukraine pic.twitter.com/2UwIhUbWbV

— Randi Weingarten 🇺🇦🇺🇸💪🏿👩‍🎓 (@rweingarten) May 9, 2023

When she’s not visiting colleges in Ukraine, she’s voicing her assist for the author’s strike, defending curriculum targeted on gender identification and sexual orientation, fawning over President Biden and Vice President Harris, and attacking Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. All whereas claiming conservatives are politicizing training.

A Bully In One other Kind

I wish to tease, rib, and choose on individuals pretty frequently – however I can take as a lot as I give. I can’t abide individuals who rip on others however can’t stand the warmth when it’s directed at them.

The place I come from, these persons are known as bullies. That’s what Randi and her ilk are, bullies.

The identical political faction Randi prescribes to assaults individuals on a regular basis for his or her previous statements and posts. For instance, take the current hit piece in The Philadelphia Inquirer on Thomas Jefferson College President Mark Tykocinksi.

The outlet combed via the college president’s Twitter account to trace what number of tweets he had appreciated that have been crucial of assorted subjects, together with:

• The COVID vaccine
• Gender reassignment surgical procedure for kids
• Faculty variety places of work

Thoughts you; he didn’t write, share, or touch upon any of those subjects; he merely “appreciated” them on Twitter. This man, by the way in which, isn’t a Twitter powerhouse. He has solely a bit over a thousand followers. 

The left has no drawback being crucial of those that oppose them. Nonetheless, when the tables are turned, it doesn’t really feel so nice, and their reply, as an alternative of considerate counter-debate is to attempt to silence us. This time the try is thru the ruse of an AI device offered to assist your social media replicate “who you might be at present.”

Fox and right-wingers are attacking me and @AFTunion for certainly one of our member advantages, it is simply absurd. We provide members a reduction to LifeBrand, a improbable device which helps individuals assess their outdated social media posts. pic.twitter.com/gCwFdKSsNb
