I don't see how that quote addresses it. Wouldn't the relevant right be a "right not to hear", which he doesn't mention?

> You don't have to listen to anything anyone has to say

If you're a student, and it's in the state mandated curriculum, then you do.

> it's also possible to sideline something enough that it is effectively censored without being outright forbidden.

I 100% agree with this.

You're right, I misread your comment. He really does not differenciate this clearly, despite having examples for both cases.
