Can you dig thru Google to find a situation in which a governor, about 20 levels higher than a local school board, decided to not only directly fiddle with curricula but also tout having done so to the media?

And this guy is also emerging as a national political force. He’s not dumb, and he he’s attracting serious handlers. Some consultant is telling him this is a big vote winning position. And that consultant is right.

Who loses in this dog fight? As usual, people who think freedom of expression is our most important and nearest to absolute right.
If you think I am anything but horrified by this, you are wrong. And I agree that this is far more egregious. But the right has been engaging in attempts to censor viewpoints they disagree with, including censorship on this very issue, for a long time. It is wrong to suggest that this is primarily a reaction to woke-ist social media cancel culture mobs. It’s just more of the same.
