It's ironic (to me) that the people who believe this way simultaneously believe themselves to be better, smarter, and more moral than anyone who refuses to agree with them.

Facts. The crux of the situation is as you said, the parents can’t state their arguments without sounding racist. It’s the irony of the “how to be an anti-racist” book, which states that any policy not actively anti-racist is racist. But if anti-racist policies have objectively failed, does that make them racist? 😬 At some point we have to acknowledge that it has always been virtue signaling. To quote a well known guy from a recent interview “I’m saying what I care about is the reality of goodness, not the perception of it. And what I see all over the place is people who care about looking good while doing evil. Fuck them.”
