Read a post from a teacher about a meme that got her reprimanded last spring
I used to think banning memes was no big deal, just internet drama. But she described how a simple joke about standardized testing got flagged as disruptive and she almost lost her job. Makes me wonder who decides what's too far and if regular people get a say in it.

Wonder who's the gatekeeper for what's a joke and what's a threat...

I mean, is it really that bad if schools crack down on memes though? @phoenix_campbell88, maybe the gatekeeper is just an administrator trying to avoid the district getting sued because some joke got taken wrong by the wrong parent.
