What was she actually fired for? The article doesn’t say.

If it WAS for her private views, she should own the town.

She can make good money teaching community “learning pods” for families that that are pooling their resources to provide an education for their children. Sounds as if she would be a good choice!

They also fire anyone who “likes” such a posting, or who doesn’t post something condemning it.

The KGB would have loved facebook.

WHile she certainly has the right to say what she wants, it is a bridge too far to say white privilege is the same as being called a n_gger. Privilege exists and certainly parts of it have to do with skin color. Few white people benefit from it. Being called a n-word is a sub-human, clearly not the same.

I wonder if the 5 who voted to terminate are related to her, she should get a nice check.

Schoolboard members are subject to voters. Vote them out; take back the schools.

Of course they have to play by the rules of realty. Bust them in the mouth, they fall down. That’s reality.

By firing her they proved she does not have white privilege.

I had always thought 1984 was work of fiction, I had no idea the left was using it as an instruction manual.

I’m comfortable with violence. Might not be the greatest at it, but I don’t shy from it either.

Problem is... I’m in a serious minority on “our” side.

Actually exactly the same.

To be told that you would not have anything except for the color of your skin is to reduce you to subhuman status.

that is exactly right. It is exposed in their constant use of projection in debating/arguing.
