"Choices are what I say they are."
People can wear clothing for any reason they want, not just the reasons you think they should be able to.
All theistic religions are harmful (not just Islam), but there are at least two major issues with oppressive laws like this:
The law almost certainly talks about face covering broadly and equally prohibits you to wear a ski-mask to school whether you're a muslmim or not.
This law isn’t oppressive for kids forced to wear a fucking bag and indoctrinated into a cult. Religion is a monstrous evil.
There is no judgement mechanism that the state can employ that can accurately determine when a person is forced to wear something that they may choose to. Attempting to enforce such judgement will always cause more harm than any perceived good.
The complete inability to acknowledge this kind of obvious facts about the world is why the left doesn't win elections. It's literally written in law in places like Iran and Afghanistan and is often the first thing muslim women stop doing the moment the authoritarian grip starts slipping.
