I guess what bothers me most about The Great DeSanitizer’s Free State of Florida is that our fearless leader apparently thinks we Free Floridians are so naive, so impressionable and, yes, so fragile that our little minds and delicate egos must be protected from suspect influences by the full force of state law.
It’s almost as though the anti-Ron thinks we’re all, um, delicate snowflakes. Who must be shielded against the harsh glare of life, the universe and everything.
(BTW, I call him the a-R so nobody will confuse him with the rest of us Florida Rons, who tend to be rather genial fellows.)
Forget the Free State Of Florida.
This is The Great DeSanitizer’s Nanny State Of Florida.
Seriously, it’s illegal for teachers to use the wrong personal pronouns?
(Well you can call me Jay or you can call me Ray. But don’t call me Jane and don’t call me Rae because there’s a law against that.)
And professors can’t teach history that might make us White people feel guilty? (Hey, slaves learned valuable skills didn’t they?)
And our employer can’t educate us to work well with colleagues of different racial, ethic, religious or sexual orientation backgrounds.
Because that’s indoctrination.
And that’s bad for ya.
And colleges and universities can’t help make students who don’t look, talk and act like the rest of us mainstreamers feel more at home.
Because DEI is bad for ya.
Don’t like that library book? Heck, we lead the nation in pulling books from the shelves.
Because reading is bad for ya.
Don’t say gay. And no drag queens, thank you very much.
It’s bad for ya. It’s bad for ya.
Seriously. Is this the Free State Of Florida?
Or the Free State of Floriduh!
How feeble minded does the anti-Ron think we are that we must be protected by law from all manner of influences?
Because they’re all bad for ya.
Our anti-Ron has built the most impressive Nanny State in Florida history.
Because everything he doesn’t approve of is bad for ya.
He’s our babysitter.
Talking about acting in loco parentis.
No more social media for you kids.
We’ll force feed you the evils of communism instead.
Because it’s bad for ya. It’s bad for ya.
Heck, calling him the ultimate helicopter parent doesn’t begin to do justice to our anti-Ron.
He’s our rocket-fueled helicopter parent.
Because he knows what’s bad for ya.
And we Floridians are just delicate little mushrooms.
To be kept in the dark and fed…
…well, you know.
