  143.  @User84030  it’s sad that people either don’t see that, or play dumb and pretend there’s some state wide issue that NEEDS a law to prohibit. Like seriously, I haven’t seen any actual situations used to justify the law, and literally 0 examples from Florida that justified the explicit expansion to 12th grade. Like what do these supporters think is “instructed” in 12th grade that warrants parents to be “concerned about age inappropriate content”? Do people actually believe teachers are putting on hardcore porn from K-12? It’s literally culture war BS, and DeSantis chewed off more than he could bite with retaliating against Disney for merely disapproving a bill that has valid criticisms ignored to “own the libs” This is why Florida has education issues. The populace is distracted, some willingly while they focus on issues that either barely if at all happened in the state, rather than current real issues in the state. Ultimately it’s a net negative effect because though the bill doesn’t really stop something that likely never required legislation, it does make it harder to discuss topics some parents don’t like, under threat of legal action. Like some either don’t understand or care that Education employees don’t actually need to be guilty of breaking the law, but merely being accused can contribute to legal risks and criticism for things that doesn’t have to fall under the law. If you need any real world examples from Florida that proves that problem, it’s the mother upset her kid’s school didn’t send out permission slips/notices that their kid will see a picture of the David statue…. The kid mind you is a 6th grader, and the “pornographic picture” is a 500 year old statue depicted in a lesson about renaissance art. Like this is moronic.

  196.  @marshall2.015  because parents can and already have created controversy against school officials over something that actually wasn’t applicable under the law, but the parent believes a 6th grader seeing the Statue of David equates to pornography IN AN ART CLASS. People criticize it because the wording is so ambiguous, what actually violates the law isn’t objectively specific. Because it isn’t specific, parents can invoke it, or point to it while claiming “THE LESSON IS PORNOGRAPHIC” just because their kid sees a picture that’s not actually considered porn, and is literally one of the most well known pieces of art in human history. Doesn’t matter whether Disney cares or not. Doesn’t mean it’s ok for state governors to punish companies because they disagree with what the governors do. The first amendment applies to companies too, and suggesting free speech suddenly shouldn’t apply to companies that produce media might as well be your argument to weaken the freedom of speech in the constitution. If Disney approved the law, DeSantis wouldn’t have done anything negative to them, and you probably wouldn’t care. But since it’s the opposite, it’s okay for DeSantis to target companies that dare criticize anything he backs, under threat of financial retaliation. Now if that’s alright, and a newspaper in Florida criticizes DeSantis, it’s also fine for him to make legislation that increases taxes for that specific business, right? I really don’t get how you don’t comprehend the actual issue. Has nothing to do with Disney or even DeSantis. It’s a question of whether he did or did not retaliate against a business for criticizing his law he signed. It’s a first amendment issue, and DeSantis has openly indicated that his actions against Disney was related to their criticism.
