Teacher who resigned after her OnlyFans page was discovered says new employer fired her for violating social media policy (www.kbtx.com)

Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her.

Edit: To those basically saying she had it coming because she made her OF account public...

Sex work is real, valid work.
There is nothing wrong with sex work. Sex-shaming is Puritanical horseshit.
"But her students could find her OF!" is a problem their parents should have to solve. It is not her responsibility to use an alias, because of points 1 and 2.
Every other argument criticizing her for her sex work during her non-teaching hours is fucking moot.

I'm saying we shouldn't. Are you saying that teacher is any of those people? There shouldn't be a blank rule that people and corporations can exploit to do whatever the fuck they want.

You can’t discriminate against minority groups (and just to give examples but not a comprehensive list) like black people, gay people, and you can’t discriminate against people based only on them being a different religion. Look up protected classes.

You need to look up protected classes as well, they're broader than you seem to think. It's just as illegal to discriminate against people white people, straight people, men, etc. Because protected classes cover discrimination based on race, sex, etc without specifying which sexes, races, etc are protected because all of them are.
