If you thought Florida couldn’t get any wackier,

archives said:
”Florida rejects 54 math books, claiming critical race theory appeared in some.”

“The Florida education department has rejected 54 mathematics textbooks for its K-12 curriculum, citing reasons spanning the inclusion of critical race theory to Common Core learning concepts.”

“The rejected books make up a record 41% of the 132 books submitted for review, the Florida Department of Education said in a statement.”

“Of them, 28 were rejected because they "incorporate prohibited topics or unsolicited strategies, including [critical race theory]," the statement said.”

Love to see how one uses mathematics to teach CRT, maybe referring to select numbers as Prime designates class, especially if you write them using black ink. Don’t tell me making those denominators always on the bottom isn’t Marxists.

DeSantis just can’t help himself, attempting to portray himself as Trump lite, he has to insert all the right catch phrases and dog whistles in everything he says and does, in fact, nearly everything he does is centered upon the same theme

Florida’s complaint about CRT in math books comes from faked equation problems: State House Dem

Actually, some people in Florida were shocked at videos of wackadoodles that were exposed on the libs of ticktock which compiles videos posted by the idiots themselves. These ”teachers” awakened a sleeping giant. The moral here, if you teach kids, have multiple face piercings, mulit colored hair, and publically express your woke views, don't look for a job in FL.

What "Libs of TikTok" does is prove that the Left lives in a bubble. The reason those "wackadoodles" are posting those videos of themselves is their worldview is one shared by everyone immediately around them. They see what they're posting as normal and sensible. The other 80% of America sees it and is appalled and shocked. The Left then can't fathom why they're being ridiculed and made the butt of a joke. That makes them hostile and wanting to repress and suppress their tormentors even as those persons are simply reposting what the Leftists themselves made public.

Well put.
 
Okay, I asked T.A. for examples.

To date, he can't produce any.

DeSantis couldn't produce any examples when asked by the media.

So 5 pages have been wasted on yet another lie from the MAGA minions regarding the CRT boogeyman.

I produced the examples of textbooks I could find. I clearly stated that's a small percentage of the whole. I never claimed beyond stating what the state of Florida did that it was CRT. The examples I found were about Common Core with Florida, like most other jurisdictions, has rejected and wanted removed from their textbooks.

I think I've done about as well as I could on that. There may be, as I also stated, CRT stuff in some in textbooks I was unable to find to examine.

So now you understand that CRT is right wing Pavlov's dog whistle?

No, not at all. As I've pointed out, The 1619 Project is used in over 4,500 schools across the US right now as a history text even though it is fiction and is taught as actual history. The object of that is to further racial and ethnic division in very much the way CRT proposes it be done. That is an example of CRT being used in curricula to shape what is being taught.

Bull-fucking-shit! This is what I asked, " Please explain to the reading audience precisely, in no-uncertain-terms how math text are being used to "teach" CRT to students. We'll wait.

To date, you haven't done this. Instead, you side step with the usual right wing wonk mantras about CRT being taught to school children and such. That was debunked factually. Then you ignored the FACT that even DeSantis could not produce evidence of his claims/assertions.

The OP is specific. You can't defend it because you have no proof of DeSantis claim. GTFU and just concede the specific point instead of wasting time and space with this MAGA shuffle.

I don't need to because I never claimed it was, the state of Florida did. If I could examine all of the textbooks in whole that were rejected, it might be possible to see and point out the ones where CRT was used in developing them. But I can't and neither can you. That doesn't rule out that there is CRT influenced material in some of the books and you cannot rule that out either.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. In the books I could find, I clearly showed that Common Core was included and that would be reason to reject them under current Florida law.

Millions of people and nobody, including DeSantis and the people of Florida, could provide a single example.

Bottom line: you can't support DeSantis because there is no proof that what he says exists.

He lied.

You cannot use some half assed parallel discussion to give DeSantis any credibility, because your claims were debunked.

All you can do is the usual MAGA shuffle ... keep repeating insinuations and allegations but never admitting that the core facts don't support what you and the people you are defending are specifically wrong.

So, grow a pair and state in no uncertain terms that DeSantis cannot prove what he said. If you won't, that (once again)proves you're just a stupid MAGA minion squawking like a parrot.

I'm not supporting anyone on this. I stated what I found trying to look into it further myself. I'd think you'd applaud that effort since it appears I'm the only one that's bothered. Everyone else, you included, have just railed against what Florida did without bothering to take a look yourself.
