And why can't it be banned? You would oppose a state law to ban K-12 schools from teaching Holocaust denial, eugenics, and Klan ideology?

It can't be banned because it's not actually being taught in K-12 schools. ("It" being the obscure legal theory called CRT.) I agree that a lot of kooky antiracism and diversity stuff is entering K-12, the way to ban that is to ban racial discrimination.

You can't believe this. Read the legislation. It doesn't ban critical race theory as a legal theory; it bans promoting or compelling students to believe the core concepts of critical race theory. (CRT is not a legal theory, that was "critical legal studies.")

The legislation does lots of different things, some of which I agree with and others I don't.

Would you support a state law to ban public schools from teaching a Klan ideology-based curriculum?

Yes, although I'm not convinced that the state legislature should automatically wade into highly fraught curriculum battles. In most cases, I would prefer for the relevant authority to prohibit such a thing.
