That boy ain’t right. I like how he’s convinced of this even though most students don’t wear their political beliefs on their sleeves. I didn’t in my classes in college. Charlie’s just mad because he’s stupid and he knows this whole charade he has of crying victim can last so long.

I’m not sure he’s that self-aware. He’s just convinced that we teachers punish “highly intelligent” conservative students with poor grades, because we’re mean liberals. In 30+ years of teaching, and nearly 18 years of education, I have never seen this happen. Some teachers may favor some students over others, but usually not for reasons of politics. Besides, how often does politics end up being a factor in math, science or foreign languages classes?

The idea that conservative students deserve poor grades because their reasoning abilities are flawed escapes poor Charlie, who displays those shortcomings daily on Twitter.
