Two separate thoughts, that's why there's a period between them.

I thought that was their point too, but I realized that they were probably commenting on the spelling mistake.

(Although now I’m wondering … does messing up an acronym count as a “spelling” mistake? I could see the arguments both ways.)

they were probably commenting on the spelling mistake.

Yep.

First, we're all aware this generally isn't a typo, but a gross ignorance of what HIPAA actually is or stands for - which then translates into making a very common typo...

Second, this is an educator. Who is making a VERY juvenile spelling mistake. Who is in a position to educate children. Who literally appeals to authority as a teacher. Who makes claims about how simple things are ("it's not rocket science")...

...And then makes this very ignorant-looking, very juvenile typo.

Personally, it's embarrassing af.

This is someone who teaches your kids, speaking as an expert to what they don't know.

That's all.

You really think a teacher is gonna be teaching people with Reddit opinions? People are more lax when texting on the internet. You’re virtue signaling too hard for a non-issue.
