The Wisconsin English teacher, Jordan Cernek, argues in the suit that the district violated his freedom of religion and free speech in mandating the use of the students’ preferred names and pronouns.

A high school English teacher is suing a Wisconsin school district, alleging it did not renew his contract last year because he refused to use the preferred names of two transgender students.

Jordan Cernek’s federal lawsuit alleges the Argyle School District violated his constitutional and civil rights to be free of religious discrimination and to be able to express himself according to his religious beliefs when it did not renew his contract because he refused to abide by a requirement that teachers use the names or pronouns requested by students.

    My interpretation is there are many reasons why his contract wasn’t renewed. I think he’s trying to make it political by claiming he’s being cancelled. He is shitty. He doesn’t deserve to be a teacher. I just think this is his way to go on the attack instead of having to defend his record.

    I could be wrong, but no fucking way we’re getting the whole story just listening to him.
