No, it's true. Trump thrives on lower-information voters. He requires TV-addled morons as his base. That's why so many (if not almost all) Trump supporters are under-educated, low-income semi-literates.

If it weren't for THEM he wouldn't be able to get enough votes to be town dog catcher.

Well, not always. Not all of you Conservatives are racists, but some are. But that doesn't really relate to the post I made or what I was responding to.

I suspect you are one of those "undereducated semi-literates" that vote for Trump. How's life in the trailer park? Enough meth for ya?

"Florida is barring high school students from taking a new advanced placement course on African American studies over concerns the lessons run contrary to state law."

“In the future, should College Board be willing to come back to the table with lawful, historically accurate content, FDOE will always be willing to reopen the discussion,” state education officials wrote in a Jan. 12 letter to the organization"

"Florida’s education agency, in its decision, doesn’t spell out exactly which law the course is violating"

"That legislation, FL HB 7 (22R), or the Individual Freedom Act, was passed by Florida’s Republican-led Legislature to expand state anti-discrimination laws and prohibit schools and companies from leveling guilt or blame to students and employees based on race or sex. It created new protections for students and workers, including that a person should not be instructed to “feel guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress” due to their race, color, sex or national origin."

Wonder if Ronnie knows that AP courses are voluntary, and who does he think is going go sign up for an AP course in African American studies?

The part about leveling guilt or “feeling guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress” is too much

Lot of dog whistles going off here

I wonder...

Was this course like the ones here in Arizona in the Tucson Unified School District initially called "Raza Studies?"

Those were radical Leftist, racist, propaganda courses taught primarily to radicalize and incite bigotry among the students.

That was back in the mid 2000's, and the course was truly radical Leftist and racist. It too was supposedly an "Advanced Placement" course.

I'm betting this Florida one is a similar thing, although I can't say for sure on that. I am 100% correct on the Tucson case as I did considerable research on it and provided that to the local news and politicians, who--already questioning the course's content--raised a shit storm of pushback after seeing what I had. I even engaged in a textural beatdown of several of the teachers in the program on AZCentral.com, the Arizona Republic (state newspaper) website.
