I’m highly critical of CRT, but let’s not mince words—these new laws are speech codes. Censorship is a concession to an idea’s power, not a defense.
I join @jasonintrator, @kmele and @DavidAFrench to denounce these illiberal banshttps://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/05/opinion/anti-critical-race-theory-laws-are-un-american.html …

What’s the reason these bills weren’t just drafted in a way to ban this as well? Would have been a great way to put some sunlight on what’s going on here.

I know, I guess I should be more clear: these bills are not being promoted as being about banning neo-Nazi indoctrination in schools (in their text, and in the public messaging) - it feels like that would have been a very good idea.

Iow I would like to see their opponents be forced to agree in public we ought not take steps to prevent white supremacist indoctrination in public schools. They are not being forced to take that position openly, and it’s not because they aren’t taking it.
