    Ahh yes Florida, please teach me how slavery was such a beneficial thing for my race.

    I’m sure the millions of slaves that were forced to work in fields without pay, murdered, raped, and were threatened just for wanting equal rights would agree with you.

    Obvious /s

    How is critical race theory banned, but this shit is allowed?

    This is a rhetorical question. I know the answer…

    Universities in other states need to loudly proclaim they will not accept Florida high school graduates fed this horseshit. “Does not meet prerequisites for higher education.” You want to be Confederate Jesusland? Fine, but there’s a cost. Employers need to do the same thing.

    My hope is that because this is such an obvious, stupid lie, it’ll inspire kids to question all of the other stuff in their history books too; even blue-state schools teach ridiculous lies about American history, my kids got all sorts of upbeat hokum about Columbus I had to correct them on.
