    true. He wasn't.

    But this led the way for banning books with irrational CRT hysteria that we see going on now.

    Tucson's Mexican-American Studies Program led to banning books with irrational CRT hysteria that we see going on now?

    It led the way to approach it. It was successful in 2012. It was based on banning ethnic studies. That is what we see with the CRT hysteria.

    In 2012 they weren't talking about CRT but that is what they are using now. That and the trans/grooming hysteria that seems to have overtaken CRT lately.

    The unintended consequences of purely politically motivated laws. It used to be that both sides hate that crap. Now, as long as my side wins, I'm good.

    Yes. You're correct. But it was early on the west coast and World Cup was starting. Maybe I do suck at multitasking.
