If you have to ban ideas from the classroom you are not living in a constitutional republic but in a fascist state.
All gen ed courses must promote "the values necessary to preserve the constitutional republic" through traditional, historically accurate" coursework. "Courses based on unproven, theoretical, or exploratory content" are banned from gen ed; the ban enforced by DeSantis appointees.
