Social media lambastes woke teacher for resurfaced viral video in which he complains that making children behave in class is 'white supremacy'

Social media users are calling for a Virginia high school teacher to be fired after a May video resurfaced showing the teacher saying that making children behave in class is akin to "white supremacy."

What are the details?
According to the New York Post, Josh Thompson — an English teacher at Blacksburg High School in Blacksburg, Virginia — raised eyebrows and ruffled feathers after a since-deleted TikTok video of him from May began making rounds on the internet this week.

In the video, Thompson blasted the district's Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports program — which is used to help reduce disruptive behaviors in the classroom — by saying that the notion is the very "definition of white supremacy."

Calling the techniques "white supremacy with a hug," Thompson said, “It's things like making sure that you're following directions, and making sure that you're sitting quietly, and you are in your seat — and all these things that come from white culture."
