FL provides examples of political bias in banned textbooks
 

I love the graphic from one math text that shows racism by political affiliation. Shocker, it says conservatives are the most racist.

Just what should be taught in public school math class.

When you know you can't win an honest debate with adults, you start indoctrinating kids, who don't know any better.

Nah, there's no liberal bias in academia...

while displaying a graph suggesting conservatives are more inclined to be racially biased.

They are!!! Ron just axed black members of congress in his I repeat his maps which he claims are Race neutral

So if your a minority race neutral means Stfu and let the majority speak

“they are!!!!”

well, you do have three exclamation points, and that’s a compelling argument.

The party of segregation and Robert Byrd, the party that opposes school
choice and wants an abortion clinic on every street corner in black cities, doesn’t get to lecture anybody on race.

But man, those three exclamation points make a good point!


democrats in CT gerrymandered turbine conservative house district a few years back, re drew it so it included the city of waterbury, made it permanently blue.

but it’s not gerrymandering when you do it.

“conservatives are racist!!!”

easier to say that, than to explain why i support school choice and why you oppose it.

Jim this is the disclaimer about your examples from Fla government

Based on the volume of requests the Department has received for examples of problematic elements of the recently reviewed instructional materials, the following are examples provided to the department by the public and presented no conflict in sharing them. These examples do not represent an exhaustive list of input received by the Department. The Department is continuing to give publishers the opportunity to remediate all deficiencies identified during the review to ensure the broadest selection of high quality instructional materials are available to the school districts and Florida’s students.

Did you read that Jim

the following are examples provided to the department by the public

Same people claiming pedos and grooming at Disney

Same people who claim the don’t say gay bill is protecting children lol

so what if they were given by the lu mic to the state?

if those things are in the book, the book has no place in public school.

wayne, if you want schools
that indoctrinate and churn out thoughtless liberal lemming zombies like you, it’s a free country. But start your own schools to do it. you can’t do it on my dime with my kids.

i’m sorry if that’s too fast for you.

would you understand it better if i used three exclamation points and out emojis in there like a teenager?

wdmso, if liberal governments can tell chick fil a they can’t do business in those places for having the wrong political views, why can’t FL tell
disney “you can do business here, but we’re not giving you special treatment”.

isn’t banning chick-fil- a a much harsher form of political retribution?

everything is ok when liberals do it.

hypocrisy.

Don’t worry
Trumplicans are great examples of conservative morals

Exclusive: Madison Cawthorn photos reveal him wearing women’s lingerie in public setting


So how do you prepare for the level of Discourse that "homophobic, conservative Christian congressman has photos surface of him in women's lingerie" provokes?

So let's review Republicans throughout the country have taken up stands against it LLGBTQ people trans people supposedly dirty books and children's libraries who is on Disney pedophilia groomers everything based on at best dubious examples of book here one page out of a who knows textbook from somewhere else and yet they they cried all this is proof this is proof this is the evidence that we said existed as if it's some grand scheme from the liberal left to indoctrinate our children in the nation .

however when it comes to January 6 thousands and thousands and hours of video testimony text messages actual recordings from Republic officials throughout the country and yet conservatives love to suggest that there is not a coup attempt. it wasn't an insurrection it was just free speech and few bad actors

The links Republicans will go to excuse and deflect it it’s it’s amazing

And now Jim is trying to compare Chick-fil-A to what Ron DeSantis did to Disney Just more examples of Jim’s false equivalency’s Chick-fil-A’s are in my town they’re all over the place yeah one or two examples of a community who doesn’t wanna discriminating business in their community you compare that to Walt Disney. ? Ron got his panties in a bunch because Disney pushed back against his policy . and he decided to exact retribution on the company and Now the residents of that county are stuck with over $1 billion in debt tbecause Ron had to Own the libs and Disney !
what happened to Chick-fil-A in a few examples were local officials not the states Governor
Yet there’s another community in Florida with the same status as Disney called the villages but apparently since its a conservative environment Ron did not feel the need to change their status!

So I guess Ron asked himself what would Putin do.. and did what Putin would do . Destroy his enemy for his benefit. Not Floridas

who’s bashing lgbtq? i’ve been in favor of gay marriage since way before most liberals

but i also recognize that even non-gays have rights. Your side tries to say that’s gay bashing.

america is sick of it.

Floriduh’s going down the road taken by Orban in Hungary.
To build an authoritarian state, the First Amendment must be sacrificed. And you know what happens next: “First they came for Mickey Mouse, and I did not speak out—because I was not a rodent. . .”

I thought we were told that Citizens United gave corporations the power to run the government.

and he’s on with it when liberal government forbid chick fil a from doing business.

he’s kind of all over the place…flip flopping…tough to see what his underlying principle is…unless…wait a minute…could
it be, that his only principle is that the liberal is always right and the conservative is always wrong?

he’ll flip flop 180 degrees on the same issue, on the same day, to always be on the side of the left.

DeSantis saves Florida kids from being indoctrinated with math


Problem 1: In an election, the Republican candidate gets 232 electoral votes and the Democratic candidate gets 306. Who won?


Problem 2: Florida had 153 coronavirus deaths per 100,000 people over the past year while California had only 58 per 100,000. How much higher is Florida’s death rate?
Answer: I’m going to do my own research.

It’s easy to laugh at Florida’s claim that it rejected 28 math textbooks over “publishers’ attempts to indoctrinate students”

Only if your a cult member

The right is Disney land we’re everything is make believe lies are truths and it’s the whitest happiest place on earth
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

hey math man, what’s the percentage of california’s population that’s elderly, compared to florida?

to quote you, that’s a false equivalence. except it’s an actual false equivalence, because you need to normalize for differences in elderly population.

wdmso, are you in favor of states making huge companies pay their taxes, or not? liberals seem to be inconsistent on this issue.

if you’re on with liberal places banning chick fil a,,what is desantis a totalitarian communist for not rolling out the red carpet for disney?

Ah yes the illiberal duo attack again, they are trained to respond to the Dog Whistling tuned to the most intolerant illiberal elements in our society

Jim and the rest of the Maga cults wheels flew off their bus with the suggested misbehaving of the IRS against Conservatives they yell and scream about The lie from the the right. That the Doj was going after parents ..

But cheer Abbot for shutting the truck crossing costing billions
Or Ron’s who been in office since 2018. Magical crusade pass laws in his last term before reelection
All targets of gGOPQ talking points transgenders gays CRT. Protection of children from pedos and Grooming and Disney the embodiment of liberalism leaving community’s and tax payers with billions and a certain tax increase of 300to 400. For homeowners and much more for Business

But it all good owning the libs is considered leadership

Also Jim. You feeling Fla has more old people than California is just that a feeling

By Total: California has the highest number of seniors in the U.S. with a total of 5,148,448 residents ages 65 and older. But that is likely because California also has the highest population out of the states. Second in line is Florida, with a total number of 3,926,889 seniors.


moving the goal post again are you now claiming Disney paid no tax

Because again wrong

Walt Disney World paid $780.3 million in state and local taxes in 2021

Just admit it Ron used his position as Governor of Fla to retaliate against 1 its largest employers for a campaign ad to use in the Republican primaries
Do you think if he was potus and a Republican controlled both houses .they will play by the rules

I am bet it would be revenge time from company’s to individuals to Rinos or any state who in the past present or future dare criticize the GOP

my god man, you go by which state has the highest percentage of seniors. not which state has the larger absolute number of seniors.

if absolute numbers are the gauge, CA has way more deaths then FL. Therefore using your logic, CA performed worse.

you might have paid more (some) attention to school.

I’ve got a feeling he was too busy being bullied in school

[QUOTE=Raider Ronnie;1226121]when using percentages makes FL look worse, he uses percentages. When using absolute. numbers makes FL look worse, he uses absolute numbers. Goes back and forth and thinks no one sees.

FL is growing and thriving. It’s doing so, despite having no state income tax.

When you can offer a comparable product ( or a superior product) at a lower price, that’s called “winning.”

And my god are they scared of Desantis’ winning again and again. As of right now, he’s an absolute rock star.

Doesn’t matter if trump runs, sadly.

Only you Jim think iam the one doing the math. Again you fail to post any facts where I have.

You make nonsensical claims then try to accuse me of not being accurate

which state has the highest percentage of seniors. not which state has the larger absolute number of seniors.

Wow even the State of Maine. has a high percentage of elderly than Fla Jim Yet now you abandoned per thousand metric ? Why

"Only you Jim think iam the one doing the math. Again you fail to post any facts where I have. "

You use cherry-picked facts that contain flip-flopping logic.

Your last post, you tried to deny FL las a higher senior population by showing that CA has more seniors (ignoring rates). Fine. Using your logic, let's assume that absolute numbers are what matter, not percentages/rates.

According to these facts in my link, CA has has 89,000 deaths. FL has had 74,000 deaths.

CA has had 15,000 more deaths, despite imposing more severe lockdowns, despite keeping kids out of school longer.

https://usafacts.org/visualizations/...19-spread-map/

"Wow even the State of Maine. has a high percentage of elderly than Fla Jim"

I never, ever said FL has a higher % of seniors than Maine. I said it has a higher % of seniors than CA. Here are some more facts, showing I am 100% correct. FL has the second-highest elderly population (by %) in the country, behind only ME, and it has way more than CA, which is ranked 45th.

https://www.prb.org/resources/which-...re-the-oldest/

Again, as always, you are responding to things I never came close to saying. I never, ever said FL had a higher senior % than ME.

When you compare states for covid, you compare death rates. And because covid obviously is way riskier for the elderly, statistics 101 would dictate that you must normalize every state's data for differences in elderly population. Essentially, what you have to do, is figure out what death rates would be, by state, if every state had the same % of elderly citizens. Very, very simple statistics.

Here are those facts. When you do an age-adjusted comparison of death rates, CA is still better than FL, but FL is way way better than NY, and we were told all along that Gov Cuomo was "the gold standard" in terms of managing covid.

https://www.bioinformaticscro.com/bl...-covid-deaths/

https://www.bioinformaticscro.com/bl...-covid-deaths/

Florida ranked 31. California 38

Number 1. Mississippi

The problem Jim you keep cheerleading for Ron


But the numbers don’t add up..

As I’ve said if you didn’t post nonsensical stuff their would be no reason to respond.
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

how come you left out NY, I wonder?

when comparing states, you also have to consider the severity of the lockdowns.

Floridians love the way their state handled covid. They don’t care that you’re trying to poke holes in it because you don’t like their governor.

and wdmso, i’ll say this, when Sesantis started lifting lockdowns and opening up, i thought he was insane.

it it turns out we were a lot more ruthless in ourselves than we needed to be. Which required us to spend trillions, to undo the damage if the unnecessary lockdowns, which exacerbated inflation.

we did a lot of this to ourselves.

990K Have died from Covid

turns out we were a lot more ruthless in ourselves than we needed to be.

Hind sight is always 20/20

And it’s irresponsible to suggest we did to much we have no metric to compare if we did nothing

Conservatives use the same arguments with global warming

For some reason their against trying anything that might help solar. And wind are COVID’s masks and lockdowns

Even the mayo stated face masks help slow the spread of the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)? Yes. Face masks combined with other preventive measures, such as getting vaccinated, frequent hand-washing and physical distancing, can help slow the spread of the virus

Many conservatives and some liberals can’t seem to accept evolving science .. it just re enforces their conspiracy’s

As if since masks or the vaccine isn’t 100% 100% of the time it’s pointless I don’t understand that logic

Yet these same people say Disney are grooming children.. their is never any credible evidence to support the outrageous suggestion . Is a meme and that’s it. Case closed

I get it masks are inconvenient so is the RMV TSA . But life threatening or life altering .. not even close

Same for school closings tornado or hurricane wipes out your Town guess what it takes time to get those kids and their families back to normal it under stood something terrible happened..

Yet with Covid people don’t have that same view. It was wtf school my Aka baby sitter is closed and now I have to deal with my children WTF are you kidding me..
That’s the parents rights they wanted. Their baby sitter back
CRT trans masks that’s all a smoke screen

Right or wrong? Just how I see it
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

"990K Have died from Covid "

There you go again, I have no idea what you're responding to, or what your point is. I didn't deny that covid was a disaster.

Here is my point, and it's a valid point...if we left our economy open, and let our kids stay in school, didn't force our citizenry into isolation that's done enormous psychological damage...if we hadn't done all that, there's no reason to believe many more would have died. The places that had the strictest lockdowns, didn't always fare a lot better than places that stayed more open.

"Hind sight is always 20/20 "

I agree, which is why I said I thought Desantis was crazy when he opened up. I said that at the time. Turns out, he was analyzing "the science" a whole lot better than Gov Cuomo, who had book deals and Hollywood awards tossed at his feet.

"And it’s irresponsible to suggest we did to much we have no metric to compare if we did nothing"

Wrong. It's irresponsible NOT to suggest that.

We took kids out of school, forced them into isolation, forced millions out of business and onto welfare, with almost no evidence that it did much good. And any good it did do, has to be weighed against the surge in suicide, crime, drugs, people seeking emergency mental health services. God only knows the damage we did.

But you say it's reckless to look back and see what we could have done better. That's just brilliant Wayne. I notice that "logic" doesn't stop you guys from bashing Trump as failing on covid. So it's only reckless to analyze Biden's job performance, I guess.

"Conservatives use the same arguments with global warming"

No they don't. We haven't shut down our economy and kept kids out of school over global warming.

"Even the mayo stated face masks help slow the spread of the virus"

I have always said masks probably help. I'm talking about large-scale lockdowns. Masks and closing millions of businesses are different.


And I'm sorry, but there is no universe where it makes sense to say that BLM riots are OK but going to church isn't.

"It was wtf school my Aka baby sitter is closed and now I have to deal with my children WTF are you kidding me.. "

No, that's not what it was. It's that they got no education for 18 months, at least the kids in public schools. The private schools did way, way better.

Maybe in your circles, school is only seen as a way for parents to get away from their kids. I wouldn't be surprised if you and your buddies view school that way.

But rational people view school as a place where little kids grow and socialize, and where all kids learn and are helped on the path to fulfill their dreams. We derailed that. And we now know, we did it for no good reason. And blue states did it longer than red states, because they are owned by the teachers unions.

You seem to be preoccupied with saying WTF a lot.

CRT trans masks that’s all a smoke screen

No it's not. I posted links to books with photos of boys blowing each other, a video of a parent reading from a required book and the school board admitting the language was inappropriate for kids to hear.

You can't accept any fact which paints liberals in a negative light. You're too much of a simpleton.

I’m expecting the “rational people”
to call for public stoning “because it says so in the Bible”
I’m sure they’ll be ok with Muslims leading the after game prayer 🙏

Now in Fla

petitions sent to public school superintendents across the state, Chaz Stevens asked the districts to "immediately remove the Bible from the classroom, library, and any instructional material," Stevens wrote in the documents, which were shared with NPR. "Additionally, I also seek the banishment of any book that references the Bible."

His petitions cited a bill signed into law last month by Gov. Ron DeSantis, which lets parents object to educational materials. That bill came about after some parents complained about sexually explicit books being taught in Florida schools.

I expect irrational people to say irrational things.

sounds like chaz is your kind of guy.

if a town wants to ban the bible ( all religious books, more accurately), they can. that’s how democracy works.

Sorry Jim can’t haven’t both ways but trying is a conservative virtue

Chaz is just playing the cards the Republicans dealt him and you don’t like the irony not surprised

how am i trying to have it both ways? i said if people
want it banned, it can be banned. how can i be any more consistent?

your hero Chaz identifies as. “an archbishop of the church of mars. “. that’s not crazy

again, your kind of guy.
