"I'm a pretty tolerant individual..."

Bullshit. Bull. Shit.

What is with these people and the phrase "shoved down my throat"? I constantly see that coming from self-proclaimed tolerant Republicans.

They're so afraid of something that they have to act like it's an attack.

"I'm ok-ish with the idea of people who aren't like me, but I don't wanna have to like actually see and interact with them, y'know?"

Georgia is spending billions to attract high tech jobs.

This will eliminate all of that progress

Florida is becoming a statewide social experiment to test how far they can turn back the clock.

A lot of the residents that are for all of this will be in for a shock when it doesn't turn out like they want it to. Even if they get their way, reality will come for them, and it won't be good.

Picture Florida, on its current path, 20 years from now. Other than under the sea and gone, it's gonna be a different planet.

You do realize that this article is about the neighboring state, Georgia, right?

"Georgia's in Florida. Dumbass" --Idiocracy.

[-] Ranvier@sopuli.xyz 5 points 6 months ago

You're right it's an article about Georgia, but Florida seems to have beat Georgia to it and done this already. Unfortunately it's a trend across many Republican run states.

The inevitable brain drain and decrease in tourism alone will likely be enough to bankrupt the state and that's just scratching the surface of the myriad consequences of the current political insanity!

This is in Georgia thought. I don't see an immediate connection from the postet article to florida (except maybe the general right-wingyness).

Once again, I am glad I never procreated.

Nah fuck that, I'm raising my kids to be dragon slayers.

In the Peach State's halls
fear sparks a moral panic.
GOP runs wild.
