Having taught in schools some years back, as has my wife, I can testify that discipline is nonexistent, and now my son tells me that the administration asks teachers to call the parents when there are problems. What will happen when the parents encourage the students to misbehave?
Yep, that's it. Over and over. Americans reflexively distrust and dislike anyone who draws attention to themselves by professing opinions publicly, especially when those opinions differ from what Americans are taught by the MSM to believe. Add in accusations of violence and racism and you've got a winning strategy.
It will be a pyrrhic victory at best. Best case is a LOT of parents leave the public schools for other educational methods such as private and home schooling. Worst case is the entire CRT indoctrination in schools gets revealed, and the establishment that allows it is revealed, and the Democrats are branded as Pro CRT. And there is lots of legislation in Red States that stops CRT, and elections at local school boards that defeat pro CRT candidates. CRT seems to thrive when it is hidden, and publicity / light destroys it.
Violence and Racism is always a good way to demonize an opponent, as well as extremist. That worked so well against the Tea Party that their name became Toxic. IT was decentralized, so they could not demonize the leadership. And add in all the Grifters that came along, GOP Aligned, that just vacuumed up money. The Tea Party tarring and feathering was a joint attack by the Establishment GOP, Democrats, and MSM. The end result is the anger against the establishment did not go away, Trump identified it, and you got Trump as President.
The difference is the Tea Party I saw as more Republican Voters, and a bit older. Those against CRT seem to be Mom's. And with Mothers, some can become super protective for their children. Helicopter parenting, addicted to safety etc. The soccer Mom demographic. Lots of emotion involved when dealing with protecting their children.
Another factor that has already destroyed a lot of Overton Windows, is Trump. The Tea Party had nobody to fight back against the narrative. The Establishment GOP I see as mostly useless. Trump on the other hand is a wild card. He does listen, and if he figures out CRT is a winning fight that he can benefit from, he is an amazing at fighting the narrative and exposing an area. Of course the MSM and Internet Giants are trying to censor him. My guess is Trump is currently following Napoleon.'s Axiom, "Never interfere with an enemy in the process of destroying himself. ". Or perhaps there are just too many targets right now with the Biden Administration. Border Fiasco, Afghan Fiasco, Booster Shot, Forced Vaccination, Durham, $3.5 Trillion Giveaway, inflation, Biden Administration becoming a lame duck due to catastrophic polling, etc.
Now, any disagreement with the school board gets you labeled a domestic terrorist by the Keystone cops. People are increasingly disenfranchised in any number of ways. Myself and others have said this before, but it bears repeating: this is how revolution begins. We are rapidly approaching a very unhappy ending!
What timing for a new business venture. Go figure. Makes me want to throw up in my mouth.

My guess is with this and mask / vaccine mandates, home schooling is going to double again.
