The judge was an Obama judge. So according to him any limit on a schools curriculum as decided by any governing authority whether the governor or school board violates the 1st amendment. That means if as part of a sex ed class an high school teacher wanted to discuss her sex life in graphic detail that would be free speech. It also means that a teacher could tell students that they are inferior because of their ethnic background. He is also (per the judge) free to discard teaching American History and instead give credit for the students protesting the celebration of Thanksgiving. The school also must permit students to bully, degrade, mock, tease, harass, and silence other students and teachers since that too must be free speech.
The court is an unapologetic ass.
I should correct myself. If the ruling only dealt with the parts of the legislation that dealt with the this at the University level and can see that as far as teaching it being a free speech issue. However the problem is that often teachers who do teach from a viewpoint of CRT or DEI often silence the speech of students who do not agree. That is what has to be stopped. A free exchange of ideas and robust debate used to be an accepted part of college education.
