It really is dystopian, but I wish he’d used a word that’s actually in the vocabularies of most Republican voters.

Oh, I’ve seen them use dystopian… they just use it to refer to anything that is not white male cisgender control of the country…

There was always that 1 right wing kid in my college classes that argued with the professor… That’s fine. You can disagree with what you are taught and you may or may not be an idiot. No one needs the State to mandate that certain topics cannot be taught.
These clods are the “snowflakes.”

Yes, that is the goal. Don’t worry though, this is just a temporary setback, the Republicans will find a way around it soon enough.

This is why I’m confident that one of his first moves, should he gain the Presidency, would be to follow in the footsteps of so many right-wing leaders (most recently Netanyahu) in attempting to destroy the independent judiciary on a national scale. Fascists hate judges who actually and willingly understand Constitutional concepts like the First Amendment.
