Gee, doesn't that sound familiar...
No.
You should adjust your settings, somehow the notion of the state banning ideas fails to register on your screen.
My settings are fine. Preventing leftist politicians from using state mandated educational institutions to indoctrinate kids into racism is not remotely like preventing free people from expressing their opinions privately. If you want a parallel to Putin, look to Facebook and Twitter.
Banning ideas is wrong no matter what ideology you fear.
Making no exceptions even for what is taught to children in public school is what makes your opinion a whole lot of foolish and extremist nonsense.
Some of you operate under the delusion that schools will teach anything if not restrained by state law. You're wrong.
Some of you operate under the delusion that a school's curriculum is never wrong and only based on facts. Hell, back in the day, schools had gender specific classes like home economics and wood shop. Gotta teach a women's role and a man's role.
But the fact that school are willing to teach a THEORY, pretty much shows that exactly, that they'll teach anything. After all, when I was in school they tried to teach me that Henry Ford invented the automobile
Were you absent when they taught what a THEORY is?
Cuz I was taught the theory of gravity, among others.
Schools don't teach just anything, and they don't do that because citizens and parents and self-proclaimed libertarians vote and go to PTA and parent- teacher conferences and send Canon-style emails to teachers.
She me schools will teach CRT, many won't. Some will get accused of teaching it because so many don't understand what it is; that's why I started a thread with the New Discourses article.
“Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.” (The Law, p.6) Frederic Bastiat
