Um... I try to remember to give access to people who are my friends/acquaintances but I haven't been making very regular flocked posts recently, and I don't necessarily keep proper track of it. However, with the new work practice, I've got to start locking most posts about that because of the subject matter - children, and work... and not wanting to be accidentally Googleable.

So if we are acquaintances or friends (I just mean that you're in fandom and you're someone I've exchanged some comments with so I know you're not a spambot or a troll or whatever) and you follow me and want to be able to see the rants and other slightly specific things I post about school/work and you can't currently see this post, then I'm perfectly willing to grant you access if you drop me a comment in this post.

cimorene: cartoony drawing of a woman's head in profile giving dubious side-eye (stfu)
Today, I was once again reduced to wordless rage!

SOME KID: But why was Jesus crucified?
TEACHER: Well, that was because, you see, the Jews didn't really like the way that Jesus said he was the son of God. The Jews were waiting for the Messiah who would save them and they didn't think the Messiah would be that kind of person, like an ordinary human being like Jesus.

This is the same one who jumped in to answer the clueless one who wanted to know what Jews think about "our" Jesus (mostly correctly but without any special knowledge of the respect he's sometimes been held in since his death) - so volubly that I wasn't able to get a word in in order to come out as a Jew.

Now, it's not that I couldn't rebut this. It's more that I barely know where to start, let alone how it's hard to formulate Swedish when overcome with rage. Also any comeback would have to be both brief, and simple enough to not seem weird in the second-grade context, if you see what I mean. What SHOULD I have said, calmly and in brief, to correct this misrepresentation for a second-grade audience?
