[@evelyneca7454]

Just a reminder that if you see a child/minor getting abused by a teacher, please DO report it so that the abuse can be stopped. Don't wait for the CHILD to come forward with their story because they are a CHILD (this includes teenagers). They might not understand why what is happening is harmful to them or they might be pressured into silence by their teacher. (and the teacher stays free to potentially abuse others) You also do not have to report it to the school. (If you are afraid people will gossip or the school will cover it up ect). Report it to the police directly. It is a crime to abuse a child. It's an affair for the police. In cases like this, the identity of the child is supposed to stay protected. There should be laws in place for that. It's not your place to tell someone else's story of their abuse but if someone is in need of help, get them help. I felt like that got a little muddled in the video so I felt the need to mention it in the comments.

[@erinbush9005]

Not only this, research the protocol in your area. There are a lot of laws about things like this, and following the steps can help to get the victim a lot of help. For example, where I live, any abuse that an adult hears about has to be reported to the police and a social worker gets called in to assist the victim and provide mental health assistance. If you see something, say something

[@MrLeFluffy1]

Honestly I feel like the only reason Jane Lynch hasn't really received too much shit about her role and why her character is actually generally tolerated a but more than others is because, like you said, Jane Lynch recognized right way that her character was NOT A GOOD PERSON. The character may be a source of comedy, and hell, maybe there might come a time where you can sort of sympathize with parts of her, but she never plays her like her actions are justified. Plays her like her CHARACTER thinks her actions are justified? Oh, absolutely! But she absolutely plays her as someone that, even when introduced with a "reason" for her actions, does not have an *excuse* for her actions. And that's why her performance not only outshined everyone else, but her character and her personal role in the show hasn't received the kind of backlash the others have. You can see the awareness in the way she brings that character to life, and people recognize that.

Having a cast of deeply flawed characters is not an inherently bad thing, and can make for some excellent storytelling.

[@helloill672]

The cast of Community are flawed in one way or another, but you can see them grow closer and lose some of them along the seasons. Also, it balanced the comedy and heart felt episodes pretty well.

[@z-beeblebrox]

@@helloill672 Community's pilot episode is also a great counterpoint to Glee's pilot. It's horrible people doing horrible things, until faced with the stupid consequences of their stupid actions, they're forced to be genuine with each other for once. Since the writers actually recognize that they're bad, the characters actually receive redemption arcs instead of tacit approval for being assholes

[@BenHunt10]

But… that does happen…

[@caseys2698]

@@helloill672 was about to mention Community! Totally agree, that show gets the “flawed but likeable characters” thing right from the pilot episode. I haven’t watched Glee, but from what I can gather it struggles with making its characters likable for a long time, and watching unlikable mean characters for multiple seasons before they learn just doesn’t sound like a great time. That is my personal bias showing though, if someone tells me to watch a show and says “the main character(s) are awful and intolerable for the first few seasons, but they get better later!”, I just won’t want to watch it. I’d rather characters have something redeemable about them from the beginning, otherwise I feel like I’m gonna waste my time. In my opinion, a TV show should have flawed but likable characters who you get invested in, because that’s what TV shows do best. Movies are much better for studies on terrible people, because you only have to sit with them for an hour or two, not hours upon hours

I liked Jane Lynch's character and that's it. She is iconic in a mean sort of way and fits the role like a glove. But for a show that self-advertised its diversity, Glee kind of reinforced many stereotypes and misconceptions: mental health, race, biphobia, sexual abuse, etc. Kinda hypocritical.

[@D-Fens_1632]

Did Glee just get called out for not being woke enough?

[@NCC-1701_no_bloody_a_b_c_or_d]

Jane's character for the most part was meant to be the antagonist, so she could get away with just being mean and having fun with it, whereas some of the others were meant to be "good role models" or instilling some kind of positive message and it fell flat. Interestingly, when Jane's character did do good it really felt more like what they were actually trying to achieve in their message the rest of the time.

[@emmetthalsall6251]

The crazy part is that the Jane Lynch character is, in a lot of ways, the hero of the show IF we’re using properly portrayed diversity as a metric. Yes, she did and says terrible things, but she also calls out Will constantly on horrible shit he does. Including the episode that Coach Beast comes out as trans. (Also the trans representation in the show is super cringe. They were clearly trying to woke without really understanding the struggles trans people go through, and at times actually contributed to the terrible stereotypes, as you mentioned)

[@guyofminimalimportance7]

It feels like this show wants to have the "It's Always Sunny" Approach where the comedy comes from everyone being an awful person, yet it also wants you to genuinely care about and root for these characters even though there's very little redemption compared to the genuinely terrible things they do.

[@Caroline-hw9yw]

Exactly! It started out as a black comedy but once it got really popular the creators felt like they needed to do more with the show and started trying to add lessons on top of everything, which didn't match up tonally with their original intention. Them wanting some parts to be taken as genuine and some to be laughed off and dismissed makes the show feel really inconsistent and messy.

It was bad enough that everyone knew about him when I was in 3rd grade, and he didn’t get provided a new home and job out of state until I was a junior.

[@qz6332]

Figured I’d add this: it was so common in our school, I and other students thought it was like that everywhere. When I got to college and started talking to people about my high school, I very quickly realized it wasn’t. There are so so many other instances of stuff like this happening at my school, I firmly believe all of the administrators should be jailed.

Just to correct one thing. If you are going to have a glee club/high school choir, you actually do need a budget. You have to pay for sheet music, sometimes you have to pay for someone to play the piano (although sometimes you can get a band teacher/student to do that for free). It's also nice to have choir robes or something like that so that every kid doesn't have to spend the money to come up with some kind of uniform and acceptable performance outfit. You also often have to pay for transportation to performance venues/conferences/etc. So yeah, you don't need a huge budget, but you do probably need more than $60. Carry on.

[@eaqua56]

Well said

[@kayleigharnold]

Yeah for sure, my choir teacher was the one who played the piano or he just played the track in the background, but even with that expense out of the way you still have things to pay for. Sheet music like you said is it’s own expense, not to mention microphones, speakers, and equipment. But each year, each student has to pay $100, of course there was ways to reduce it down to $25 I believe for certain students, but I spent $100 each year for choir. $75 for the dress, $5 for the folder, and $20 for the yearly shirt. Not to mention the week camp was $430. And you had to pay per student for our 2 big completions each year

[@luminousmoon86]

@@kayleigharnold Interesting. This was many years ago, but in my high school, choir was an actual class (albeit an elective) that you got credit for, so the school district paid for almost everything, except our choir robes, which we had some fundraisers to pay for (selling candy bars and such), and if a student did extra things like trying out for the all-state conference, they had to pay for their own entrance fee and all that. I'm sure it varies a lot by the school district and whether the choir or glee club is an actual class or purely an extracurricular activity.

[@bogosbinted5734]

As a band and theatre kid, sheet music and music rights are expensive enough alone, even if you aren't also paying to print it. Anything related to performance has insane amounts of hidden but necessary costs.

[@luminousmoon86]

@@bogosbinted5734 Yeah, I probably should have explained that part better, but when you buy sheet music, you aren't just paying for some paper with notes and lyrics printed on it; the price effectively includes a license to perform that work. Hence why sheet music is so expensive. And in order to license an entire choir, every single performer must have their own licensed and purchased copy, they can't share, and you can't buy one copy and make a bunch of copies of it on a copying machine or whatever. Even if it's a digital license where you print it yourself, you still have to buy a license for every person in the choir.
