I think she's just doing this for free promotion. Every article that's written about her she probably gets tons of new subscribers.
Yup, work the system for all it's worth. The damage to the reputation is long done, so bleed it dry.
While I don't think she should have been terminated from her role, I do wonder why this tactic seems to work so well.
Many smaller news outlets (especially in the UK) regularly run stories about a young woman going through employment disputes, being dumped in some way, or going through something borderline newsworthy, and many times these women have a OF page they actively promote.
I wonder if it's just easy stories from people that want to be promoted?
I don't want to dismiss the issue of people being fired for doing completely legal things, but I can't help but agree, this always seems to be the case. I saw an article recently about a woman struggling with other parents and teachers at school because of the size of her breasts. Seemed sad enough and didn't really understand why it was newsworthy, until I saw the mention of her OnlyFans and it all clicked haha.
If you follow the link another helpful commenter left, it's pretty obvious she's not interested in being an educator. She's using the controversy to promote her dick-sucking videos.
I mean.... for that salary and the work you must do, I am surprised anyone is interested in being a teacher.
She clearly chose to be born in a capitalist society, what a slut
Nobody was talking about "getting rich" In some states you cant even live on a salary of a teacher and people are forced to work secondary or part time jobs. Of course, teaching is beter for sociaty than making videos for onlyfans, but I don't blame her one bit.
Right you were criticizing teachers for valuing more than money (probably so reflexively you don't know you're doing it) but sure I'm the devil here somehow
What are we here arguing about? You want teachers to be poor and be overworked from other jobs when even their primary is very hard? I don't get it. Why are you arguing here with people?. This is common sense. Pay people livible and fair wage. Nothing complicated about that.
You're missing the forest for the trees. Teachers need to be paid more so that they can actually support themselves. Making derisive comments about people moving to other careers because they pay better is just attacking the wrong people. Making millions on OF is an extreme exception, but there are plenty of teachers who have left the education field to become a bartender or such, because teaching wasn't paying them enough to afford rent and groceries. Teachers leaving the field are the victims of this, get mad at the system not at the people trying to survive.
No, you don't get it. Every single person needs to grab their bootstraps and pull so hard that everyone is promoted to management! Then we'll all make management salaries. Having no employees left to manage, we'll resort to managing each other.

You're making a huge leap here and assuming a lot
I was simply saying it's kind of a shitty thing to say "I'm surprised anyone wants to be a teacher"
If I'm "attacking" anyone, it's that person
Not sure where you got that I'm attacking teachers.... Never did at all.
How about: it’s a good thing, so we should properly compensate people willing to do it and do it well. This is a societal problem, not a her problem.
Btw, putting the onus on the woman is something that misogynists would do, so you’re probably not really making any kind of point anyone would agree with except for maybe misogynists
I dont get what you meant then, without much context “good little capitalist” sounds condescending as fuck.
I'm still trying to figure out how I was insulting anyone but the poster. And how you think this is not offensive or condescending:
But in the end it doesn't matter. We're all just being judgy based on a sentence or two.
I said that teaching is hard and has inadequate salary. People should stop doing it for that kind of money....because....that's how you force people to increase the salary. If you don't agree with that then idk what there is to talk about. I guess you just want people to be poor and miserable. Or do do you have better solution for this problem?
Next, so because you are insulting individual instead of group, it is somehow alowed and acceptable?
When I say to you: Bob Ross says you're a mistake.
That's fine then? Good to know.
I'm insulting you, you condescending thick skilled troglodyte. You alone. I love teachers, and despise idiots. Hence I insulted YOU
Oh my gosh, I am simply stunned by your unparalleled brilliance. Your answers have singlehandedly solved every challenge faced by educators worldwide - truly, a monumental achievement. I stand humbled and grateful for your outpouring of wisdom and affection. My deepest gratitude for gracing us mere mortals with your infinite knowledge, boundless compassion and LOVE.
I couldn't possibly care less, CondescendingCossty
I will cherish our conversations forever and hold onto them tightly during those lonely moments when there's no one around to offer such valuable perspectives. I will never forget the impact you've had on my life.
Take care and good luck.
I've tagged you in my Lemmy app so I'll know to not interact with you because you're a condescending fraud. Good riddance
I feel like I just won the lottery! Being blocked by someone as esteemed and illustrious as yourself is an honor beyond measure. In fact, I believe this is the pinnacle of my social media career. I mean, how many people can brag about getting banned by none other than YOU? Seriously, I couldn't think of a better endorsement than having my name permanently etched into your block list. From now on, whenever anyone asks me what success looks like, I will proudly point to this moment as proof of my achievements. So once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for bestowing upon me this most coveted prize.
You certainly have some time on your hands.
Wasting precious minutes conversing with self-proclaimed intellectuals and moral titans—what a thrilling way to squander one's day! What larks await us mere mortals amidst such lofty discourse! Surely, no better purpose exists than indulging these sublime beings with our undivided attention.
not clever
Oh, really? I hadn't noticed that my intelligence was being evaluated by someone who thinks that insults and baseless accusations are an acceptable form of debate. I must have been too busy using my "non-clever" brain to come up with original ideas and engage in thoughtful conversations to notice. But thank you for your valuable input, I will be sure to take it into consideration the next time I need advice on how to be a close-minded brute. Or better yet, maybe you could share some tips on how to effectively silence differing viewpoints through intimidation instead of reasoned argument. Now THAT sounds like a useful skill!
NOOOOOO ONNNNNE CAAARES
ps didn't read this
Wow, I am truly honored that you would take the time out of your day to let me know that you didn't bother reading my previous message. I can only imagine the wealth of knowledge and insight that I missed out on by not having you as a reader. I am humbled by your wisdom. Thank you so much for sharing this enlightening information with me. I am forever changed.
Or maybe she's falling back on her only option after she had to quit and got fired.
I think it's probably better to say: " she’s not interested in being an educator anymore. "
You are probably right now, but I'm willing to believe that she did at one point want to be an educator, but the financials didn't work that way. Can't blame her.
