This Motherf*cker
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(This was later repealed IIRC, but not before first being approved.)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.

It’s almost funny how this is just textbook fascism
We have always been at war with East Asia
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
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."
I feel this comment. Also:
(well it's 89 now)
It'd be funny if it weren't so fucking terrifying
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.
See when we had steam. The best steam. You would ask: “Where did it go?" That's what they ask. Where is my beautiful steam? Even Obama said it. It was not on the news.
The Smithsonian features a ton of examples of success. The Air and Space Museum in particular is a monument to American achievement.
100%
I meant to comment that it's very clear he's either never been to any of the museums or literally walked through without looking around himself a single time. (And I have this same comment about museums generally, IME, aside from things like the Holocaust Museum (obv).)
Walked through..? No. If they allow golf carts there’s a chance he’s sped through, mowing down toddlers right and left, yelling about how slavery was great.
But they do it has a different name, though
Nobody tell Trump the name of the bomber that nuked Hiroshima

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)
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!
New Florida standards teach students that some Black people benefited from slavery because it taught useful skills

But it makes me feel bad to think about and it was soooooo long ago
"Slaves make me money"
The creepy thing to me is the random capitalization. That's a German thing.
‘How bad slavery was’. Sir…. Do you take umbrage with saying slavery was an awful evil thing? What the fuck world are we iiiiinnnnnnnnn.
Lmao not to mention we have the ‘HOTTEST’ country. Ah, so you do believe in science and global warming.
I think he means like Ivanka...like he wants to fuck us!
Ew gross. He is so not my type.
The whole consent aspect doesn't seem to matter to him.
Just grab them by their country
Is he anybody's type?
Laura Loomer? Karoline Leavitt?
Well it certainly feels like we're getting fucked.
This is your friendly reminder of the original meaning of "woke", which the fascists are trying to erase because it directly threatens the willful ignorance they depend on:
Woke: aware of systemic discrimination and abuse, particularly but not exclusively racism.
That's it. That's the basic requirement for being an informed citizen that they want to erase to make it easier to get everyone to conform to their fascist groupthink.
Yeah, I thought "stay woke" meant to pay attention originally. As in wake up and see how we're being divided.
"wake up Sheeple"
Wait....
You thought right.
You misspelled childfucker
Oh, so we’re at that step.
Yeah right!!! Why are they not talking about the future!!
Definition of a museum:
Well you could argue that he's been adding to a future segment of the USA's dark history
Damn that's crazy, where are the Epstein files?
#"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
We really need people to go and document the exhibits now so that we'll be able to put back everything he has changed.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
"How unaccomplished the downtrodden have been..."
Where do you even begin?
BTW, he definitely did not write this one himself.
I can almost see how his PR drones developed over time, they are now trying to integrate some of his "STYLE" into their
tweetstruthslies.To be fair slavery never really went away on the United States.
It's just dressed up a little differently.
"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.
Prison garb, etc..?
Yeah...
Dear black republicans, they will get you working the fields again given the chance.
Fascists know no loyalty.

So where are the trump/Epstein files?
Maybe they can display those in the museum?
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
Slaves developed skills, which they could use to not be hanged.
I think, somehow, both sides could use that statement and be perfectly content.
Two words from history... "Entartete Kunst"

"This country cannot be WOKE [because it's only ignorant arseholes that'll ever vote for me]."
Is he talking about the runway or history? Jeeeesus Christ
But why aren’t museums about the future?
We're the hottest, baby!
Money is funny.
