That middle school teacher who is torn brings up an excellent point and I think the line is somewhere around "Who does this effect?" Cause if it directly impacts your classmates, the teachers, and the education process, you aren't really sticking it to the man like you think you are. Making no one able to go to the bathroom isn't anti-establishment, it just means people who are already sick of the school (probably for the same reasons you are if classrooms are underfunded, the administration has screwed up priorities etc.) have to suffer more

[@angiewinchester3384]

If they really wanted to do something as a form of activism a lot of gen z has started online protests, like flooding the Texas abortion hotline (where people can report others who've had an abortion) with useless messages. If they wanted to protest going to school during a pandemic, especially if they're being forced into in person school, a strike is fine. Literally all this is is upper middle class douchebag kids stealing from underfunded schools and making teachers and administration, who already don't get paid enough, pay for it. Like just do a mostly harmless prank or something with that energy.

The thing is, people can get hurt. The second I heard that the bathrooms closed and that kid said "Idk, hold it in, ig" I got stuck on that. For some people with medical issues, like myself with one kidney, or others with other issues like that or if you just think of the fact that girls get periods, having no access to a bathroom could be very bad. I can't hold my pee in for too long because of my issue so I'd be one of the people who would have pissed herself before third period. Not to mention how many girls would be bleeding through their underwear. Targeting bathrooms is selfishness amplified, in my opinion. It's something that is necessary for many people and for many people it's honestly one of the only places they feel safe in at school. We cannot hold in certain bodily fluids as a goddamn human animal and to deny that access is friggin' inhumane.

[@dustyzoiveon6161]

When I was in school I had something wrong with my bladder where I physically couldn't hold it in at all. Couldn't afford to go to the doctors for it so I still have no clue what the hell that was (went away not too long after high school, thank *GOD*), but it took a few embarrassing accidents for the school to have to give me a special pass to get up and go to the bathroom without having to wait to ask, because it was genuinely so bad that just asking would risk an accident.... I can't imagine having to go through that time in my life and having all the bathrooms be closed. I wouldn't be able to hold my bladder the whole day every single day like that - just having an accident those few times while I was trying to fight my teachers for "No Questions Asked bathroom rights" was humiliating enough, having to go through that every single day just because some asshats decided to destroy all the bathrooms... would've been devastating. I don't even know what I would do.. I'd feel suicidal as hell humiliating myself all the time like that though, that's for sure 😓

@@dustyzoiveon6161 Oh, geez, that sounds unpleasant! I'm sorry you had to experience that but I'm glad it's gone! It's been a while since I've been in school (I'm in my early 30's), but I have two teenage children - and I've told both of them that if they need to go to the bathroom, let the teacher/person in charge know and go. Don't take a "no; because I said so" for an answer and I'll deal with the consequences because I know just how bad it can be, not being able to use the toilet when needed. So, my daughter knows that she can ignore a teacher who tells her to "just wait" if she REALLY needs to go for a period issue or just to go pee; as does my son. Either way, closing down bathrooms seriously seems like not just a breach of ethics, but of human rights.

[@beritscott1655]

Once, some boys at my highschool straight up broke a toilet but jumping on it, breaking it off the wall, and then flushing it. They just revoked our bathroom "privileges" except for a very small window during the day bc they didn't have enough resources to monitor them to make sure this didn't happen again.

[@Audey]

I'm an electrician, and one of my main concerns watching this is that a lot of the things being stolen would be pretty risky for an untrained highschooler to disconnect. Big commercial buildings like schools often use 277V circuits for lighting and emergency and such. Some kid's gonna get himself burned, shocked, or even electrocuted. 120V stuff is of course dangerous as well, but 277/480V can make a really big boom if you don't know what you're doing.

Usually when you see news stories about the latest "dangerous trend all of the teens are doing", the dangerous trends are either complete hoaxes or only one or two people actually did the thing and the news is sensationalizing. This seems to actually be spreading though which is crazy.

100%. I always hate it whenever the news has an upcoming story where "experts warn that new viral tik tok trend is dangerous", and it's fucking two people that would do something dumb and everyone online was already jumping on them. like teens don't need experts to inform them that using magic erasers to brush your teeth is bad. but this genuinely serious, and it's frustrating that the 24 hour news cycle has completely watered down what a dangerous trend is.

The "worst" prank I ever did in high school was in band class routinely taking the markers from the whiteboard when the teacher wasn't looking and then hiding them somewhere in the room. I put them in what I thought were fairly easy to find places (ie, you didn't have to move anything to find them, just look around) but then one day he told me he had to buy new markers because he couldn't find them. Then I just felt bad. I got "awarded" the title of Marker Thief at the last band event. Others got their own silly awards too

As a high school student…. I honestly think that this epidemic is a result of the sudden realization among students that soon they’ll be adults with ACTUAL consequences to their actions (e.g. jail time) and wanting to do something about it. Unfortunately, these students have found probably the worst way ever to deal with that feeling

[@saccharinescenery]

the "funny" part is they can still face charges if they're old enough, so there's going to be consequences - legally, as opposed to the consequence of you not being able to even use the restroom or something.

I remember when I was in high school we had a gun threat at one point, where we were stuck in our classes hiding out for hours then all led to the gym. Once it was starting to clear up, our principal spoke and said that we did a really good job and showed that it "was great to be a beaver" (our school's mascot). I just thought, similar to the principal in the morning announcements, that it's such a strange place to bring in school spirit. Like, that has nothing to do with the matter at hand and kinda trivializes it.

Honestly they'd probably get further if the schools set up a system where stuff that was stolen for this trend could be returned without consequences. The soap dispensers atleast might come back, being something on the smaller end of some of this stuff. Beyond that I think I would be doing this is I was in school right now. I think they have a huge leg to stand on that students don't belong in schools still and that the way school boards seem to have taken it upon themselves to just decide that covid is over means they were heading to some retribution from their very justifiably angry students.

In my middle school, people stole soap/soap dispensers, and in the restrooms, people all hated how it got stolen, so in a way, I kind of found it as a bonding moment between students, since we all got to have something in common that we all hated: Having soap/soap dispensers stolen. But it was also annoying, since people just wanted to wash their hands, but it also meant an increase of hand sanitizers being available in classrooms, so that was good.
