      The form even requires at least one file to be uploaded to submit… How could that go wrong?

        Any file size limitations? Would be a shame if they get gigabytes of text files filled with useless garbage.

          Why text? Upload porn. Then contact another conservative state’s Attorney General saying they should block the Indiana site for having porn.

      Sure wish I was better at scripting. I used to live in Indiana, still have family there, hell, I grew up there. I’m ashamed to call that place my home now. This shit is basically Mcarthyism from the 1950s. History repeats itself I guess.

      You can totally sign up with an anonymous mailinator.com email address!

      Also, the direct link you provided didn’t work for me. After I made an account, I had to navigate around the site to find the form.

      This shit still isn’t locked down? This article popped up a few weeks ago, and I did my part in reporting some very concerning memes.

    Aren’t all public school teachers technically socialist teachers? Since their salaries are paid by taxes.

      No Siree, here in Indiana we don’t have any truck with socialism. Our government employs unionized people to teach Jesus’s gospel about feeding the poor - no room for socialism here.

    Didn’t have 2024 as the speed runner’s version of WW1 and WW2 worst of compilation. But here we are. Nazis, trying to destroy democracy, socialist/Communist snitching, controlling woman’s reproductive rights in all forms, Italy has a Mussolini and straight up genocide.

    Germany- keep your shit together, Austria- protect your leaders, and Poland- lock your doors!

    These never work, because they inevitably get flooded with bullshit reports, but if Biden wins this year, I hope Congress takes aim at curbing these “bounty hunter” schemes.

    I’m sure this is all being done altruistically to protect the children. What a trash fucking human being.

    Jesus had some pretty socialist ideas… watch the right’s head explode when it becomes an anti-christian snitch line.

    (Looks into the GOP playbook). Wait, this has nothing to do with the ideology of the teacher, and everything to do with the pay. Newer teachers have less health costs and get paid lower. The more teachers get fired for any reason, the lower the pay. Just an end-run around teachers unions disguised as a ideological attack.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    That’s the gist of a new project launched by Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, a Republican, who has created a portal called “Eyes on Education” that encourages members of the public to tattle on teachers they believe are pushing so-called “woke” content on kids.

    Eyes on Education enables self-styled whistleblowers to submit evidence to the state of “objectionable curricula, policies, or programs.” And the site presents a selection of such content, organized by school district.

    The new state website asserts it is non-partisan, claiming to be interested in rooting out “political ideology — either left or right.” But when he announced the launch of the portal earlier this month, Rokita made the bias of the project clear, insisting Eyes on Education exists to expose “examples of socialist indoctrination” in the classroom — and seeks to highlight “destructive” teaching practices that “divide kids from their parents” and from what Rokita deems “normal society.”

    This includes screen grabs from YouTube transcripts where a superintendent mentions the words “black lives matter” or references “diversity and inclusion.” The supposedly objectionable material includes a screenshot of a social media post by Martin Luther King Jr.’s daughter Bernice, in which she writes: “There is no form of protest against racism or method of teaching about racism that will be palatable to racists.” (The word “racists” has been highlighted.)

    One document posted to the site and reviewed by Rolling Stone contains personally identifying details of instructors, including email address and phone numbers, effectively doxing these professionals, and opening them up to public harassment.

    The open letter calls Eyes on Education a violation of teacher privacy that engages in the “intentional act of doxing.” And it accuses Rokita of pushing “manufactured outrage” to target a profession that is being “incessantly denigrated” by the state government.


    The original article contains 1,157 words, the summary contains 297 words. Saved 74%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    A conservative government in Canada thought a similar idea. They abandoned the idea when many people publicly stated that they would “snitch” on the local right wing nut job.
