looking back at the question, i see what you're talking about. i still don't think it's enough information to fire the teacher.
Insert Name Here²:
Yeah but tbh when it's very serious stuff like politics and religion, the teacher should be fired over. When it's other things like movies, food, not as important stuff, then it shouldn't warrant them being fired.

there's no way this was accidental
this was a typed assignment, that she would've had to look over before handing out

a political opinion isn't bounds to be fired from a full-time job whatsoever
the teacher should apologize for his actions as well as directly to the parents involved

grounds for being fired would be teaching students that jews should be avoided at all costs and gassed if possible

the reason politics isn't taught in schools is for that very reason
