      Idk what it is about Florida that makes sooo much of the queer community around me want to exclusively vacation there. They will happily chant BLM and trans lives matter then go and spend thousands there every few months. A few of my friends have even moved there, and now post daily about how depressed they are

      It goes to show just how disingenuous those like Elmo and his fanbois were when they talk about their freezed peach. They don’t really GAF about any of that, at least not freezed peach for everyone. They just want to protect hate speech and give Nazis a safe space.

    Solving racism by making calling someone a racist illegal. Galaxy-brain move, Florida.

    I can’t wait for some Trump-appointed Federalist Society judge to dismiss every challenge based on arbitrary standing rulings. Remember, Conservatives can have standing even for fictional damages, but anyone else does not have standing because reasons.

      So, to recap, for the cons, being a racist is just fine. Being called a racist is one of the worst things that can happen to the perpetually victimized con base.

    So basically it would be a crime to accurately describe the government. That’s not Orwellian and reminiscent of certain European governments of the 1920s, 30s and 40s, no sirree!
