i taught for 30+ years. From the beginning, i had to accept that it was a public job and there was a boundary between my private life and my public life. For example, my social media had to reflect a responsibility to the larger community.“Mr Miller .. pointedly told the hiring committee that he would need to discuss it with his husband and son. It was a test, and the school passed, welcoming him with open arms.”That’s because his private life is his business and the school would rightfully not judge it, unless he broke some law which would then make his private life public.These boundaries are valued by the LGBT community when it comes to managing teachers and other public employees who are bent on a public display of things like white supremacy, fascism or other advocacy they disapprove of, because for fascists to claim they are “not teaching” on social media, public meetings, or other public platforms is disingenuously ignorant of our media culture and children.  But when it’s opinion that LGBT community support, it transitions to victimhood.i would suggest our society, left AND right, very readily picks up a banner of “I’m a victim” and seems to fanatically avoid shouldering responsibilities that come with personal freedoms and public service. Mr Miller did not think through the professional obligations he assumed when he and his family agreed to a teaching job.
