[C_Clayton_Jones]

"Textbook authors were told last month that some references to “climate change” must be removed from science books before they could be accepted for use in Florida’s public schools, according to two of those authors."

This is nothing new of course; the fascist right has long had contempt for facts, science and the truth:

‘In his famous 1995 essay delineating the signposts of fascism, philosopher and linguist Umberto Eco singled out the authoritarian's loathing of learning as a critical indicator that what you're dealing with is not just garden variety conservatism, but outright fascism. "The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, is seen as the beginning of modern depravity," to the fascist, and "[t]hinking is a form of emasculation." Therefore, Eco argued, "Distrust of the intellectual world has always been a symptom of Ur-Fascism."

So really, it's no surprise that the Republican Party — which has never been a friend of schools — has dramatically escalated its war on education on its march to becoming a fully fascist institution. Most of this is done under the guise of fighting "critical race theory. It's a real term in academia, but in GOP hands, "critical race theory" amounts to a conspiracy theory used to scare white people into supporting a full-blown assault on the teaching of history or literature in public schools. But with the early success of this tactic, particularly in the Virginia gubernatorial race, Republicans are feeling empowered to dramatically broaden their assault on all forms of education, from pre-K to the university level.’

Florida is about to go underwater, but DeSantis doesn't want people to learn about climate change.

It would probably be better to teach them to hold their breath or to get outta Dodge. If Florida is going under, there's no human activity we can change to prevent that from happening. MAGA

Good, no need for fictional nonsense to be in textbooks.

 

[Burgermeister]

The man-made global warming hypothesis has never survived true scientific scrutiny. Actual scientists don't cling to a hypothesis that continuously fails every possible test over 50 years. It doesn't even rise to the level of a theory because no evidence exists to support it.

That was supposed to happen a half century ago. However erosion happens on barrier islands, and we have massively overbuilt on them.

Leftist dem based "education" needs to be attacked.

Having lived in Florida since 1968, I can tell you that the sea level has not risen an inch.

Climate Change is a real thing but Man-Caused Climate Change is a hoax. It's past time for real leaders like DeSantis to put a stop to this nonsense.

Not going to happen in a million years, but you just keep on being a good and obedient parrot.

Irrelevant nonsense. You lose.

Show us the experiment where humans caused any real global climate change. Bring rain to drought areas for instance. Let's see real proof, otherwise you're teaching political propaganda.
