Am I the only person who Thinks Enoch Burke is right?

I agree with Mr. Burke not calling a boy a girl.

However, I do not agree with him ignoring court orders.

I don't think he played his cards right, there was/is a better way to do this.

Enoch's family have shown him no love and left him an them selves with little support, they have not convinced the court's they have a genuine grievance to better Irish society and they are now being punched down. I've criminal records for doing criminal acts when I was young and wild but its behind me and I've gotten on with my life and ignored my trouble and moved on when I proved myself to be reliable but the Burke's have few friends and don't seem to need any unfortunately. All the children are young and its shame they wont fulfill their potential.

At a wild guess, it's an answer to the question posed in the thread title.

Another thread here that seems to be full of people ignorant about the actual facts. Once again, the school asked people to refer to the student as they. Referring to someone as they does not mean does not require a person to recognise their gender change. And even then they (Enoch) could have simply chosen to refer to the individual by their name. And voiced his opposition to the principal, board of management etc.

Bit no, what Enoch choose to do was use a school assembly with all the students present to raise a ruccous. Even if you don’t believe in the students choice can you not see that vilifying the student like this in a public meeting among their peers shows at best a complete absence of any human decency and empathy?

And then when asked to stop his show boating and take the discussion through the proper channels he proceeded to angrily chase the principal around the hall, shouting at a berating them. In your own work what do you think would be the consequence if you decided to engage in such behaviour in your workplace?

The weak minded think this think this is about Enoch standing up to the “woke” agenda. The reality is it’s about him being a c*nt, acting the c*nt and then refusing to acknowledge he was being c*ntish and apologising for his behaviour.

Also, all of you using “woke” should understand that the use of this word as it is today is purely an invention. The term woke emerged in some college campuses in the US as a term used to describe inclusive ideals especially in relation to race. Some people took it for inclusivity in general. It remained very much on the fringe of the fringe until some on the far right latched onto it as a catch all label for anything they disagreed with. It was them and their mouthpieces who created what is now known the “work agenda” as a convenient label to create a wedge issue and vilify an “other”

I don’t know why anyone feels the need to impose their own beliefs on the personal circumstances of anyone else without any idea of what they are going through. It seems violent.

This is it really. The way the student was singled out in a public meeting by this "teacher" should in and of itself have resulted in their sacking. Disgraceful behaviour from someone who claims to call themselves a "teacher".

They were well within their rights to raise objections based on their beliefs to the principal, board of management , department or even launched a public campaign. That is not however how they choose to act. Easier to vilify the individual and then claim they are a martyr. Its those buying into the narrative that they have created though that is more frightening however. Complete lack of any critical thought or empathy

Enoch Burke has more courage in his little finger than most Irish people have in their whole body.

You have no idea what was going on between that child and their family and their doctors. No idea.
