A right-wing nonprofit that “offers a free alternative to the dominant left-wing ideology” has announced that Florida has become the first state to approve the organization as an educational vendor.

“This fall in schools across America, students will be watching PragerU videos in their classrooms as states officially make PragerU an approved educational resource,” the group said in a press release, according to the Miami New Times.

This is terrifying. That material doesn't even pretend to be sincerely educational. It's overt propaganda for an extreme right-wing Christian position.

There isn't even anything like it I can think of on the other end of the political spectrum.
