American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten<\/a> came under fire on Twitter Tuesday after a post pinning blame for America’s teacher shortages on “culture wars.”<\/p>\n

“The truth about America’s teacher shortage -it worsened during the pandemic-because of burnout & “the culture wars that put teachers and staff under constant scrutiny over any conversations involving history, racism and sexuality,” Weingarten wrote.<\/p>\n

The caption coincided a link to a Washington Post<\/a> article from last month arguing that the teacher shortage emerged in consequence of low pay failing to attract potential educators to the field.<\/p>\n

Many platform users took a different perspective on the “culture wars” claim, lambasting Weingarten not only for her remarks, but also for turning off the comments.<\/p>\n

“Of course she has the comments disabled. No need to hear dissenting views,” one user named “Ian” tweeted.<\/p>\n

Another slammed her for censoring dissent, writing, “You speak as if \u2018constant scrutiny\u2019 of what teachers are teaching is a bad thing? You have really lost the plot. Why are replies turned off?”<\/p>\n

Others criticized the notion that parents should refrain from criticizing their children’s teachers as well as the content of their course curriculum, arguing parents reserve the right<\/a> to be involved in education.<\/p>\n

Another comment from a former school board candidate from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, Timothy John Mehl, accused Weingarten and her followers of “grooming” children in his tweet, echoing a common criticism from others in the thread.<\/p>\n

“There wouldn\u2019t be a culture war if you weren\u2019t grooming kids,” he tweeted, alluding to swirling controversies regarding sexually explicit books and instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in elementary school classrooms.<\/p>\n

Others slammed the AFT president for refusing to take responsibility for the shortage, labeling her as “out of touch,” a “coward” or a “propagandist.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
