In this case I think "private choice" is a dog whistle for "I want to take funds away from the local public school system by having voucher money from it, for my kids, to give to some ideologically oriented private school".

When you start complaining that everything you don't like is fascism/socialism, you're just cosplaying as being oppressed.

It's a shame, because school choice could be a rallying cry for "Tax the rich to pay for private schools for all kids."
