I agree with your intended message, but this is a really weird way to say it.

If I was a teacher at an elementary school intentionally teaching children that addition is actually subtraction, I would be fired to teaching children “wrong” ideas.

Forcing teachers spread propaganda and erasing history is quite different than having an incompetent teacher.

No it absolutely is, you’re just conflating (possibly deliberately to be obtuse IDK) multiple meanings of the word wrong when the quote is clearly only using one.

Not really. Wrong here has multiple meanings that are being conflated. You’re talking about wrong meaning factually incorrect while it’s being used to mean not the propagandist’s preferred idea. Yeah, you’d be fired for teaching something factually incorrect. But that’s not the same thing as being fired for not teaching the propaganda the state wants to push.

Wow, that’s a stretch. You know perfectly well that’s not what it means.

About

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis aspires to be the same kind of Autocrat despised by the founders of the United States. He must be exposed for what he is: a great threat to our Democratic Republic and American values. Republicans don’t punish big businesses like the Walt Disney Company for disagreeing with them. Fascists do. DeSantis and those like him are a massive threat to our Democracy.

Rules

  1. Nazis and Putin sympathizers are not welcome here.

  2. The tolerant, open-minded and freedom-loving ARE welcome here. Glad to have you good people : )

  3. Attack the media and expect to be banned. There is a good reason why the press is included in the First Amendment. If you cannot respect the vital role that an independent media plays in terms of checks and balances, this isn’t the right group for you.

  4. Be respectful of our differences, whether it’s race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

  5. No Spam, Threats, Harassment or Doxing of any kind.

  6. No trolling, disinformation, or low effort posts / comments.
