How so?
Let's start to the Florida curriculum telling kids the good things about slavery and move on to objecting to giving schoolchildren free school lunches. Then there's the encouraging suicides of trans kids by taking away the one thing preventing that suicide. I can keep going if you like.
It is not. I've read the text myself. You're gaslighting.
Bullshit. Cite your sources.
Sure, as soon as you cite your sources and stop gaslighting.
Then quote it
Sure thing:
Now cite your source.
That's a factual statement
No it isn't. There is no benefit to a skill if you're a slave. None.
Still waiting for that source...
Not that you're gonna listen to me but.... I grew up in Florida in the 90's. It was racist then and it's racist now.
It was homophobic then. And it's homophobic now.
Did you know that there are people moving out of Florida in DROVES and moving all the way across the US to live in Oregon instead??

You just made all that up.
False
They have destroyed social programs and the middle class. Tax cuts for the rich drove up enormous, insurmountable debt. The war on drugs. There were no WMD’s in Iraq. Guns take precedence over kids. Due to voter suppression and gerrymandering, they are vastly overrepresented in government. They refused to let Democratic presidents appoint Supreme Court judges. They are okay with stealing migrant kids from their parents and hiding razor wire in the Rio Grande. They are broadly xenophobic, homophobic, and misogynistic. They support Putin…
And a bunch of “fuck your feelings” spoiled adult babies who can’t accept that their dumbass, tub-of-lard dipshit president lost tried to overthrow the government.
Lol all bullshit or bipartisan. Not too mention the typical bigotry of just broadly calling them all "xenophobic" and other typical prejudice
Lol “bigotry”. Conservatism isn’t an identity. Their policies are literally xenophobic.
False. The bigotry of the left has led to that misinformation spreading
