I somehow feel this will backfire spectacularly. Younger kids can be dumb like the rest of us, but there is one thing they are exceptionally smart about: spotting and mocking lame-ass adults.
There is already little tolerance among (a lot of) younger folk for climate denialism and general right wing jackassery. Adding a cut-rate Donald Duck screeching about The Protocols of the Elders of Zion or how windmills are dangerous is just gonna’ cement the lameness for them. Now, if we could just do something about the grown-up idiots on Facebook, we’d be cooking.

I think fucked up education, if started at the first grade, or even kindergarten will do the job. The unfixable ‘problem’ DeSantis faces, is that teachers are typically not idiots and also it’s not easy to force them to teach a fake curriculum and you cannot just replace them with mind washed rednecks, probably not even in Florida.
