Does that only apply to people forcing your ideology on others? Or do you think people should be vocal and confrontational with opinions you disagree with too? Should the Muslim kids berate the gays? Should the pro lifers shame those who had abortions? Should biologists publicly out the trannies?

Well all those things are already happening in the UK and I haven't done anything about it, so maybe.
What a lot of people don't get is if you don't let arseholes air their stupid opinions then you can't prove them wrong and make a good argument against them.
That means a whole lot more people will take up those opinions due to the same misunderstandings.
People worry charismatic bad guys will convert loads of people but such charismatic people are rare. It's much more common that a group of people get the same opinion because they see and experience the same things and maybe don't have access to perspectives outside that.

It's one thing to let people speak, it is another to create a cult of extremists, which this teacher is doing. This is no different than the local mosque handing out "remove the gays" pamphlets. These are not about convincing others that they are wrong, they are about punishing others for being wrong without any discussion.
