Harvard ain’t playin’… Trump’s secretary of education, Linda Mahon, sent them a letter and they marked up all of the grammatical errors. 😆😆😆

Sure you did. Would those students be the ones that you have referred to as "thugs" and informed us that "kids say things about teachers] to get revenge"?[

I disagree, some were stylistic, but others pointed out errors that should NOT occur in a formal letter.

It was a poorly written letter. I would have done much better.

Your secretary would have done better then you would have signed it. Let's be real. ;)

Seriously though... that was clearly a political piece rather than a formal letter, something written to a group of people that were not in the "to" section of the letter.

Would you ever use all caps for some words that way in a formal letter? Of course not... The corrections were pretty much the same thing... and, I have to admit, funny.

Whoever did the markup needs to learn how to write. Half of it isn't legible or correct. It looks like the work of a libtard trying to get dumber libtards to believe it. I'm calling bullshit. Where's you're source? Is that it, an X post?? You still haven't figured out you're a moron that needs to be extra careful about proving it with every single post?

They were also wrong on much of it, from first styling it as a "formal letter" and then in usages. While they may have used systematic, systemic definitely was the better word choice. Systematic means "according to plan", systemic means it is all woven into the system.

Now, the HATE thing... If this was a formal letter rather than something they planned to put online for everyone to read I doubt it would have had such emphasis, however this clearly wasn't a "formal letter" it was something written to post online, which is exactly what they did with it. Saying it is a "formal letter" is in itself a bit pretensive.

Since it was a conversational editorial written for online "publication", the usage of the CAPITALISATION emphasis and the "quote marks" for sarcasm are relatively common usages; and if the person didn't understand it wasn't because the "formal letter" wasn't clear it was because they are a bit stupid.

This is a typical Lefty post, a hoax that she/he believes immediately regardless of how absurd.
