DeSantis and his stupid laws

Recommended Posts

It is telling that people are migrating to Florida.  There are a multitude of reasons.....taxes, cost of living, weather...on and on...and this concern will in no way dissuade people.  

Put simply, this is the right way to handle education.  Indoctrination is not ok, and that is what liberals want. Parents can handle the sociological education of their children, government-provided education needs to stick to the basics.

Yeah, not liking it. It's getting way too crowded here.

That being said DeSantis has free reign to do what he thinks is best because he is the best.

Who is in the team? What are their criteria? That should be public knowledge, right? And yet the letter gives no reasons. Which just further confirms that this is all about his “anti-WOKE” agenda, and not about education or saving money or anything else. He’s angling for the Presidency, and he thinks stunts like this and sending migrants from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard will get him there.

sending illegal immigrants to where the people who want them here was a great idea, showed them their own hypocrisy

When the democrat governor of Colorado shipped his illegals, with plans to send more, to NYC not a peep.  Why? NYC doesn’t want them. They’re full.

Thank goodness for DeSantis bringing this to the nation's attention; that's the real value for the rest of the country.  Otherwise this would just be sliding into curricula with nary a peep, and one day it would be a funded option in your state.  If I were a parent of school-aged kids, I'd be looking into this in my own state.  And I'd be asking, like DeSantis, to clarify the curriculum before committing to it.  :thumbsup: 

Leftists of course hate it, because they are used to controlling education and don't like unwoke people elbowing in on their territory.

What's the stunt?

Katie Hobbs, our new Leftist governor, hates our voucher system and wants to make our schools more equitable; i.e., they all suck.  She hankers back to the days of us being 48th in education.  I'm sure she would love this class.  :thumbsup:

So people without kids have no stake in American education? Damn that’s foolish.

Glad you acknowledge that you are discussing your beliefs and not facts.

 

The person developing the study doesn't think it is irrelevant.  Which you would know if you read your own link:

 

Another TimCrotch trait you'll come to know is that once he's been proven 100% wrong, which happens a lot, he tends to just drop a point he thought he could win hoping no one will notice his L.  Then he can pretend he didn't actually lose the discussion.

Does DeSantis actually do anything or are these all just stunts just to "bring attention" to things?

Of course he does things.  He did the exact opposite of most of the Lib states during Covid.  It was all over the news every night.

I don't understand the question; in the topic in this thread for instance, his state told AP they wouldn't accept the curriculum as is.  Is your question if DeSantis himself read through it all and personally drew that conclusion?

I suspect instead that your Tucker-like question was a veiled way of insulting DeSantis.  :thumbsup:

I think he's a typical blowhard doosh politician.  That's not a secret.  Yes, I was more focused on the illegals that were brought up elsewhere and shouldn't have mixed that with your post.  That's on me.   It was a knee jerk reaction to your comment about bringing attention to something, which is what I heard him being praised for with the Martha's Vineyard event.

Race— get over it.  That’s the real thing.  Almost no one hates you just because you’re black.  Some, but not many.  So why talk about it all the time?  All this talk about racism does is entice blacks to look for rationalizations for failure outside themselves.  My son got in trouble in 7th period.  Says the teacher doesn’t like him.  Baloney.  The teacher doesn’t give a fck about you one way or the other.  She just can’t have you fcking around during class.  Same with blacks.  Mostly I’m indifferent to them, the same as I feel towards whites.  Some are OK and some suck.  The reason I feel the way I do?  Content of character.

This is the garbage you get if libtards continue their monopoly on education

 

All the liberals and "moderates" on this site are all old and angry now because they didn't get their sex changes they've always wanted. So now they are pushing it on the children of America. 

If we could only find a way to determine if a 10 year old will grow up to be panzy liberal like those on this site, then we could send them all to public schools in liberal run cities and their teachers could help them transition in the non male made up sex of their choice.

Nothing you have written above has been said by Desantis AFAIK.  He didn't mention CRT in his letter to the college board.

There's nothing wrong with the actual reasons they've stated for the ban.  They're as vague as the summary of the course is, which is one of their main gripes.  They've offered for the college board to come back to them with a more detailed description of the course so they can reevaluate it.  I think that's fair. 

Here is the letter:

 

It doesn’t say they can “come back with a more detailed description,” that’s laughable.  It says the course as is is “contrary to Florida law,” so if the content is changed they will reconsider.

So if your claim is FL is not accusing the course of being CRT, what about the course is contrary to Florida law?

Why do you so badly want courses for kids about blacks in the US? Kids can read books on their own time. They have the rest of their lives to explore their interests.

They only have 12 partial years as underage students to learn and explore the basics of our education. Reading, writing, mathematics, science and nature, handling money, driving a car, keeping a home, social studies and networking, how to be an adult, learning about options in life, mechanics, physiology, healthy living, etc.

There are a lot of basics to be covered and the key #1 things to start out life with is what should come first over learning what some liberals thoughts are on the plight or success of black people in the US. If you want to learn about the US Chinese and their coming here, the blacks and their coming here, the Italians, the Polish, the Germans and French and other Europeans and American Indians and all the different views from different writers and historians, you have a lifetime ahead of you to figure out if you are interested in it or not, or simply you choose to want, in current day USA, to first deal with becoming equipped to handle building yourself a career and how to deal with relationships and learning life as you go along. Let someone find themselves first then if they are interested they can choose to learn about others if they want.

Completely changing the subject. Why is the course against Florida law? That was the question posed in the post you’re responding to.

This post is actually very illustrative because it represents the true beliefs of those opposed to this class- they simply don’t want it taught at all.

The DeSantis administration has taken a decidedly Stalinist approach to education: we will teach what we want you to learn, all else is verboten! 

Thank God someone is standing up to the absolute moronic brainwashing of our children.  Black studies is 100 percent white hate/critical race theory.  Yes we do not want your race-baiting nimble-minded proganda ruining minds of children.  F-ing disgusting.

I always try to address the point way before going down the rabbit hole of arguing about stupid topics. This shouldn't even be at this point. It's like driving off of a road that gets you to where you want to be and arguing about things that come from your choice of going astray in the first place. Just do the right thing and stay on course. You don't play games with the youth of America because as an old person you want to indoctrinate kids into your sick way of thinking that somehow you twisted your own mind into thinking is good.

I was not giving an opinion of the course, simply correcting @Strike’s incorrect claim that the course was denied because it needed a “more detailed description,” and asking what about the course was against Florida law if not the claim that it was CRT.

If you are talking about teaching it to underage kids in school. You are correct. Teach it at the college level as electives if you want, but leave core topics alone when teaching underage kids.

I get it. You don’t believe African-American studies is a worthy enough topic to be taught to honor high school students. I think the governor’s office agrees with this nonsensical, wretched POV. But they won’t admit it; they hide behind the claim that this class violates Florida law. Except that they won’t explain how.

That’s funny,  because part of the Florida complaint is that there is no required reading for the class- it’s far too vague and broad and unspecific.
