I almost wish they still had communism to rail about instead.


Actually, they do. Another one of Desantis's "colorful" laws is one that requires that all Florida school children be taught a course called "The Evils of Communism". Now Texas tried to pass a law that opposing views on issues had to be taught, (One legislator notoriously said that opposing views about the holocaust should be taught.) Now I wish that Florida had such a law because then they would have to also teach about the evils of capitalism, you know, the Ludlow Massacre, the WV coalfield wars, slavery. I personally think every 11th grader in America should read "A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn.
