Reminder that these are the people we are dealing with here (2023 story below):
(This was later repealed IIRC, but not before first being approved.)
Florida’s public schools will now teach students that some Black people benefited from slavery because it taught them useful skills, part of new African American history standards approved Wednesday that were blasted by a state teachers’ union as a “step backward.”
The Florida State Board of Education’s new standards includes controversial language about how “slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit,” according to a 216-page document about the state’s 2023 standards in social studies, posted by the Florida Department of Education.

“How unaccomplished the downtrodden have been…”
Where do you even begin?
how bad slavery was
Yeah…
Dear black republicans, they will get you working the fields again given the chance.
Fascists know no loyalty.

Is he talking about the runway or history? Jeeeesus Christ
But why aren’t museums about the future?
Release the Trump/Epstein files
To be fair slavery never really went away on the United States.
It’s just dressed up a little differently.
Prison garb, etc…?
“Okay we won’t make black people slaves anymore, only criminals will be slaves”
“Black people are criminals”
It really is that cut and dry down there isn’t it. Pretty fucking wild.
I know Musk deleted the woke mind virus a while back and it apparently didn’t stick, but now Trump is saying museums are the last remaining segment of woke (whatever that means). That’s it, you assholes don’t get to say it any more, wokeness has been beaten again. You have to stop calling things woke now.
Calling things woke is woke
You misspelled childfucker
It’s almost funny how this is just textbook fascism
It’s also almost funny that he’s trying to remove the parts of the museum that point it out. He’s trying to cover up the thing by doing it.
We have always been at war with East Asia
It’d be funny if it weren’t so fucking terrifying
Frankly, out of everything, I’m amazed at just how textbook it fucking is. It’s incredible. You’d think that it would be more subtle, more covert, maybe even slightly different so that people won’t suspect a thing, or hell, maybe even due to them already knowing that this is how it went in history and what the end result was
But no. It’s literally fucking, act for act, the exact same shit. I can hardly believe it. It’s so… I don’t even know what the appropriate word for it is
It really is something
But no. It’s literally fucking, act for act, the exact same shit. I can hardly believe it. It’s so… I don’t even know what the appropriate word for it is
My personal, non-scholarly opinion: He’s known to be intimately familiar with Mein Kampf, and he’s clearly broadly overconfident and narcissistic. He probably read it, watched some WWII documentaries, and thought “This guy was ahead of his time. He was a genius, almost like me. I just have to do exactly what he did, but not screw it up.”
Yes, it’s the museums’ fault the US’s history comes off so poorly.
There’s not enough future stuff in these goddamned history museums!! (Said the man who defunded most of NASA)
#“how bad slavery was”
#DO NOT LET THIS PASS!!! THIS CUNT IS THE REINCARNATION OF A SOUTHERN SLAVE TRADER!
Mario’s brother we need you more than ever.
Like Hitler did great job on building modern highways. One may just conveniently forget 70-85 million lives got wiped out.
The German highways were planned to be built anyway, Hitler coopted the plans for propaganda reasons, also to prepare for war and reduce unemployment. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reichsautobahn
Oh, so we’re at that step.
Ah museums, typically the place where you learn about Future.
Everything’s computer
Why can’t the army use steam? Steam is so powerful. Computers aren’t powerful. Everybody’s talking about steam.
Out of curiosity, what is the counter-argument for “slavery was bad,” Mr. President?
Don’t worry, Republicans got you covered on that already! It was the life skills!
