If Greenwald's high school teacher found out he was gay and started referring to him with feminine pronouns, because the teacher felt being gay feminizes you, would Greenwald just chalk that up to free speech? Or would he consider it bullying that ought to stop?

What if a white teacher spoke to the only black student in the room using his own version of AVE, and used his usual English for the rest of the class?

I don't know the answer, but I can understand the ACLU seeing a case where rights come into conflict and choosing a result that seems more just.
