One of the largest teacher's unions in the country is doing their best to push CRT on students all around the country. Are you saying this doesn't exist?

I hope this is true. The Democratic platform of racial division is very scary and I believe it is causing a rise in murders against white people. That murder of Gene Stiller, an elderly white man and middle aged white man sure looks like a byproduct, but I don't know. There seems to be a rise in black on white murders, but I could be wrong. I guess when statistics come out over time, we will see the effect of the Democratic Party's racial division plan and how many deaths are attributed this division plan that is really horrific on us all.

If anyone has statistics I would love to see them. It isn't getting any safer out there with the anti-police thing going on.

Good luck out there.

That is not what their statement indicates, awareness of teachers to CRT is not the same as teaching students.

One more of example of how terrible of a human being DeSantis is...forcing schools to teach patriotism??? That is worse than teaching the truth about how racist this country has been through it's history. Talk about white washing our bad history.

And defend it with a $5 million purse.

Man that cognitive dissonance, though…

Ban, really?

DeSantis shows himself to be the agent for Big Government that he is!

What's next, are books on Critical Race Theory also going to be Banned?

Look out citizens of Florida, 1984 is coming. Brought to you by Gov DeSantis!

This is especially the case when the ones wanting it banned are the generations that young people perceive to be out of touch with the world that they live in.

The irony is these people who want to cancel culture things that aren't politically correct in their worldview are going to make kids more curious about something they probably would have only paid marginal attention to had there not been all of this fear mongering.
I’m sure they’ll be teaching themselves doctorate level psychological manipulation techniques…

You all are really way out of your league here. Even worse is there’s no clear line as to how far you all will go to force your belief system on others. Generally speaking, people get sick of that and will figure out a way to stop your non-stop constant attacks on their belief system. I mean your side literally just got busted lying through their teeth and now, because you all have no morals, not a single crappy media outlet is running those facts non-stop 24/7/365. You know, like you might have done if Trump ordered a hamburger from McDonalds.

I would say welcome to America and this what has to be dealt with when voting but you all don’t give a crap about anything but your own ideology and forcing it down everyone else’s throat.

Seems like a foregone conclusion on how this ends.

If there is only power then why shouldn’t we strike first (Hobbesian Trap) and make it impossible for you to move anywhere in America without feeling like “maybe I’m not safe here?”

You see, that’s how shortsighted you people are when you think it’s my way or the highway and you literally attack people’s children with your rabid ideologies.

And of course you literally have teachers all over the internet talking about how the children are theirs and not the parents and that they will teach them whatever they want or if there’s a law they’ll just change how it’s taught.

What's really going to kill them is that this revolt is not conservatives, it's parents of every political background. They really made a fatal mistake in being so blatant on the marxist stuff to their LITTLE KIDS especially

The GOP could try to focus on actual real issues facing America but this is red meat for the base. That is all that matters.

Let the culture wars continue.

It’s good when the bottom 99% fight amongst themselves, so the top 1% can stay in power.
