Thankfully the idea of Canada as some sort of liberal utopia seems to be mostly limited to American liberals and progressives, although my ex Tsion definitely was one of those people when her and I started dating.

I had a Canadian in mind, actually, and this is a person who tends to be highly vocal about how awful USA is and how superior Canada is. Both countries do some things better than the other. Canada as a nation knows how to get maple syrup right. All the USA has in that regard is Vermont--but everyone in the USA knows that molasses is better on your biscuits than maple syrup. The USA knows how to get bourbon and Tennessee whiskey right, and Canadian whisky and beer are but cheap imitations. Canada has Smarties. The USA has diabetes. Loving your homeland, nationalistic pride, and so forth are just marks of a good citizen no matter where you come from.

But when you tout your country as embodying some ideal at the expense of someone from a country you openly despise? Now you're just begging for an intellectual butt-whoopin'.

Gov. Ron DeSantis continued his fight against “critical race theory” on Wednesday morning with the announcement of new legislation that would keep the controversial teachings out of classrooms.

DeSantis introduced the “Stop W.O.K.E. Act” during a rally-style event in Central Florida.
DeSantis said the legislation would put into law the Florida Department of Education’s prohibition on “critical race theory” in K through 12 schools that was approved in June.

DeSantis says it teaches kids to hate each other.

The “Stop Wrongs against Our Kids and Employees Act” would also give parents the ability to file lawsuits to enforce the prohibition of CRT, defund any money for K-12 or higher education going to CRT consultants and ban CRT concepts from employee training in schools.

Florida Education Association (FEA) President Andrew Spar, who leads the state’s largest teachers union, released a statement Wednesday in response to Gov. DeSantis’ announcement:

“Teachers are trained and experienced in educating children and have a duty to prepare their students to be successful contributors to society. Teachers should have the freedom to teach honest, complete facts about historical events like slavery and civil rights without being censored by politicians. The governor’s announcement today goes against this fundamental American value. All Florida’s children should receive a fact-based education that doesn’t change depending on their ZIP code.”

CRT is commuism so DeSantis did the right thing


I wish I could move to Florida, at least I wouldn't need to deal with Ice all the time.

Uh... no. Communism is an economic system, which CRT is not. As I recall, civil rights, labor rights, women's rights, LGBTQ rights, interracial marriage, and many other progressive movements were labeled communistic by the right simply because they didn't approve of them.

CRT is commuism and movements to encourage gayness and interracial sex are also often communist too.
