The headline should read something more like "Florida students to return to schools after fascist-overhaul of the curriculum" but that wouldn't be "objective" enough for NPR.

Students will literally be watching Prager U Kids videos, require parental permission for a nickname, and be forcibly misgendered by even their closest, favorite, teacher as a matter of State Law.

Because the state is forcing schools to not do those things which modern society has deemed valuable and important enough to have implemented. And the state is doing it in order to punish the "other"- in this case, transgender students, or really anything the state deems to be "woke", a term that could and has been used to encompass anything the policital right doesn't like.

The reason you grew up without diversity and inclusion classes isn't because the state banned them for political reasons. Thats the difference.
