DeSantis seems horribly misguided and a bigot for going after Black fraternities and sororities. He seems to be doubling down on white hegemony. It’s wrong.[/quote]

Except he's not doing any of the things you so breathlessly listed.  [/quote]

He also never said bloggers in Florida have to register, but it was widely reported he did. When he explained he had nothing to do with it, the headlines ran that he was "running away from it." He could sue them for defamation. I totally understand why he refuses to give interviews to most media outlets. They will print complete lies, because now they need to make him look worse than Trump and that's a difficult feat.  [/quote]

Exactly.  I hope he continues to stay above the fray and not engage with the usual outrage-mongers who would love for him to react.  [/quote]
You guys said the same thing about him banning books. [b]We’ve all seen pics of bookshelves in Florida classrooms stripped of all the terrifying books[/b] like “Neither” and books about Rosa Parks.

Your disgusting party writes these laws so cleverly and presents you your counter argument - “it’s not real!” It’s the legislative equivalent of “can’t you take a joke?” and it’s every bit as toxic and annoying. [/quote]

Post those pics here, because if you are talking about the pics I saw, it was a pic of a library being renovated that somebody posted trying to whip up outrage.  
And, why do you want books with pornography available in school libraries?  [/quote]

Youth biographies about Hank Aaron and Roberto Clememte are pornographic?[/quote]

Nice try.   These books were not banned. [/quote]

They were pulled off the shelves “for review.”  Why?[/quote]

You will need to ask the officials who pulled them for review.  They have NOT been banned by any district. 
Fact is - these are some of the books found by parents on Florida school shelves....

Gender Queer: A Memoir – an explicit, pornographic book showing sex acts.
Flamer – a graphic book about young boys performing sexual acts at a summer camp.
This Book Is Gay – a book containing instructions on “the ins and outs of gay sex.”
Let’s Talk About It – a book that contains graphic depictions about how to masturbate for males and females.[/quote]

Spin away...
Pulled off the shelves "for review" is still pulled off the shelves and until they are returned, they have effectively been banned.
And it was done at the behest of DeSantis.[/quote]

They have been returned.  You need to keep up!
[/quote]

They've been approved to be returned after being off the shelf for an entire year. 1) why would such books have been put under the miscroscope in the first place? 2) Do you have evidence any libraries have actually returned them to their shelves?[/quote]

DP.  I suggest you 1) learn how to google and 2) stop your idiotic fear-mongering.

https://www.teamduval.org/2023/02/17/facts-about-library-books-in-duval-county-public-schools/[/quote]

DP.  This is unsatisfactory.  Why were they, and 10,000 other school library books on a list in the first place?  Who nominated them for the list, and why?
How about you stop your idiotic persecution of thousands of books, the overwhelming majority of which are perfectly harmless?[/quote]

"Unsatisfactory"!!?!   :lol:  :lol:  My word, no one answers to you.  Can you even read?  The answers to all your questions are located within the article.  [/quote]

So, you still can't provide any solid reason why books on Hank Aaron or Roberto Clemente were even subject to a review.  Got it.  [/quote]
