Ron "Duh" Santis signs legislation requiring universities to survey students and professors about their beliefs

WTF??? This guy is fucking demented.

Speaking of DeSantis...

Boycott Flarduh!

Weigel didn’t include in his tweet that the purpose is to extend diversity in higher education to include diverse political views.

You can't force people to take the survey, though.

Terrible!!

I thought these assholes were all for LESS government...that said, it's almost time to leave Flori-duh

Sure, R4. I'm sure he's doing it for "diversity" purposes rather than weed out anyone who offends conservatives. Whether you fucking like it or not, when people are genuinely educated, they don't become a deplorable. You can be conservative, but knowingly lying on behalf of an orange, fascist clown is not someone who should be in academia.

Florida is turning into fascist Nazism. So...now they have to monitor peoples' thoughts and beliefs?? Holy shit.. I don't believe that conservatives won't use that for their own purposes.

DeSantis will likely run for potus, too....that's a scary thought.

[quote]DeSantis will likely run for potus, too....that's a scary thought.

Joe Biden needs to quell the far-left. He needs to tell the trans and the “LGBTQ” to fuck off. The far left gets the far right elected. So I hope Joe tells them to fuck off—forever, preferably.

People, please be aware of De Santis. He is a much smarter version of Trump and will certainly be running for President in 2024. Winning an election for Governor of Florida means you are an expert at playing to the lowest common denominator of the US population.

[quote]tell the trans and the “LGBTQ” to fuck off

And the furries. People woke gays take very seriously.

Yes, DeathSantis is evil. But he is also being goaded into being more cray-cray than all the states banning CRT, abortion, gun restrictions, etc....

Greg Abbott: hold my beer.

Ron "Duh" Santis...there's nothing "duh" about him. He's trump, but with a brain.

If it’s a choice between the far left or far right—I choose death.

The far left will never be anywhere near as dangerous as the entire right. If you think that, then you're not thinking at all, because you're already too stupid to recognize that there is no "moderate" right anymore.

You can't actually point to a single policy on the far left or left that comes close to what we saw on Jan, 6th or what the current GOP is attempting to do in states across the country and in courts across the country. The right-wing as a whole has made it clear they do not believe in democracy.

A rich lady like Sharon Osborne getting fired from her show and handed a paycheck for millions when she leaves, is not quite the same as trying to kill the VP and then that VP groveling before the people who wanted him dead - all to curry favor with the fascist GOP.

[quote]If you think that, then you're not thinking at all, because you're already too stupid to recognize that there is no "moderate" right anymore.

Yeah, just name calling. Just alienating. It’s what Democrats do. If De Santis wins in 24, you get what you deserve.

This is conservative cancel culture.

It will be interesting to watch him kick Trump to the curb after his star is secure.

If De Santis wins in 24, it would definitely perk up Datalounge again. Trillions of threads on this guy. It’d be DeSantisLounge!

More like DeathToSantis Lounge

If DeathSantis wins in 2024, dissent will be outlawed and DL will cease to exist.

[quote]Yeah, just name calling. Just alienating. It’s what Democrats do. If De Santis wins in 24, you get what you deserve.

So again, just proving your stupidity or is this arrogance considering we know who the last president was and his affinity for using far worse words than "stupid."

Calling you stupid is the reason people will vote for Republicans...but an actual insurrection and attempts to nullify voters is A-OK.

Namecalling is all you deserve. You're a hypocrite and a dickhead.

More name calling. Just endless name calling. Nothing more, nothing less.

But enough about the entire political career of Donald Trump.

[quote]But enough about the entire political career of Donald Trump.

I know. That’s where they learned it. Just disrespectful, rude, hateful. Oh well. Tis the season of the Trump.

The success of insult-comic politicians like Donald Trump and MTG proves that name-calling *works*.

So get over it, you bed-wetting, pearl-clutching fascist tool.

R26, because you can't actually defend what the GOP has done, so you're being a little snowflake and pretending name-calling on an anonymous messageboard is why the Republicans win. Even Republicans know they themselves can't win based on actual support. They're left with liars like you who pretend the Republicans win for reasons other than trying to prevent people from voting.

Yes, name-calling is so offensive, but voting laws based on a lie? Meh.

R19 / R26 : “Stop being so mean to people who want to kill us all!”

r16, nailed it. DeathSantis is far more dangerous then Trump

[quote]DeathSantis is far more dangerous then Trump

He is.

The fucktard needs to have his brains blown out.

Who R34?

^ All of them

Unless Democrats find out a way to stop him, DeSantis will be president

When Congress schedules committee hearings on "reparations" legislation, that's the day he can be considered President-elect.

R37: Democrats can't fight against Republican-led states where they're literally putting into law that if they they (R) don't like who won their states, they can change it. You are pathetic for just ignoring the fact that Republicans are trying to stop people from voting because they CAN'T WIN ON POLICIES. You're also pretending not to know Republicans haven't actually won a popular vote based on actual votes in 8 of 9 elections.

Republicans in the Senate represent fewer people by the MILLIONS than Dems, so cut the crap about Democrats doing something wrong, because the only thing wrong is that this country isn't an actual democracy. Millions more people at every level vote for Dems and we are beholden to an antiquated system that allows ignorant hicks with no money and populations smaller than a single Dem city to dictate terms.

You can't make a case that makes you look right, because we all know Dems have always gotten millions more *votes* than Republicans for a very long time. You keep ignoring that Reps are changing the goal posts because they know they can't win. You didn't get the memo.

moving* the goal posts

Will those hearings be before or after the 1/6 committee hearings, r38?

R41, it really is baffling how these fools watch behavior by right-wing psychos like an attempt to murder the governor of MI, the attempt to suppress voting, the attempt to KILL on behalf of the stupidest, most corrupt clown to ever become president...but name-calling on a messageboard is what will have "normal" people voting for Republicans.

Yeah, perfectly reasonable argument.

“What’s your genitals? Are Conservative or Democrat? Are you a morning person or a night owl? Do you like leather?” “You know I don’t think this is a good fit 😬..”

Worst thing the far left might do: stop right-wingers from using micro-aggressions forever.

Worst thing the far right might do: take over the American government and destroy democracy for good.

Potato, potah-to.

R44, the fascist tool defending DeathSantis knows that perfectly well. He or she (probably “he”) is just trying to gaslight us.

R37 was probably claiming that Trump was going to win in 2020. Concern Trolling 101

Christ the election is years away. There will be 10 more Desantis-essez between now and then

So will DeSantis be sending out the Florida Air Force to divert Ryanair planes?

Is there any doubt that they'll find what they're looking for? Yes, they will say, "The faculty is brainwashing the student body with it's liberal bias, so we will mandate instruction of conservative principles into the curriculum. Or, we'll have to slash tuition aid and funding of all liberal arts departments."

The future is gonna be bleak here in the US of A. They're just getting started.

Expert on authoritarian regimes:

My God I hope there's a scandal brewing that will destroy this man. He's a scary son of a bitch.

Scandals don't seem to matter anymore...as witnessed the past four years. Even an insurrection was glossed over.

The Handmaid's Tale is a how to guide for these guys. I am deadly serious.

Cunt bitch from hell Governor Kristi Noem of SD has been laying low lately. She needs to get on the GQP crazy train or Death Santis will edge her out as the GQP 2024 frontrunner.

R52, he is friends with Matt Gaetz.....just saying

Just saying...

[quote]My God I hope there's a scandal brewing that will destroy this man.

I was just thinking the same thing!

and this fascist De Santis wants to be President, just imagine.

For those who don’t get the reference in r54, “Committee for State Security” is a direct translation of the spelled-out name of the KGB.

R56, the most that Crazy Eyes KKKristi Noem can hope for is VP.

The GQP will never nominate a woman.

[quote]The GQP will never nominate a woman.

They will when I'm ready.

Caitlyn is the perfect Republican. Phony on every level.

[quote] The GQP will never nominate a woman.

The Genderqueer party?

R5, you can if it is a condition of employment.

Should Ron Death Sentence choose the stunning and gorgeous Cait as his VP? Can she take a shit in the ladies room at Trump Tower now? So many unanswered questions.....

Everybody register as an independent

Let's hope Nikki can topple him in 2022

Nikki can drop dead along with this shithead and every other scumbag Republican.

D'oh, sorry, R69. I thought you meant Haley because that asshole is running, too.

DeSantis is very trumpian...he'd be hard to beat with repubs. Plus, Haley is a woman....not an advantage in that party.

Ron Desantis went to Harvard Law School and Yale University.

Yeah, and didn't Dubya go to Yale?

R73, Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley also have Ivy educations.

And Ted Kaczynski went to MIT. Amy Bishop went to Harvard.

Your point?

R8 Oh, I see. So by this measure conservative/Trumpers like De Santis are 100% in support of quotas for affirmative action, right?

R76, I don't understand your point.

BTW, conservatives are in favor of affirm. action. You just have to be far stupider, wealthy and white. How else could a Dubya get into Yale or a stupid shit like Kushner and his stupid brother get into Harvard? Or Trump getting into Wharton because his brother knew a recruiter there.

DeSantis Signs Bill Requiring Colleges To Survey Student, Faculty Beliefs

^ I thought Republicans were against Big Government?!

How Third Reich of him.

While everyone gets distracted by "woke" and "CRT" masks or the lack thereof, this is the shit they're pulling.

I suspect a lawsuit challenging this bullshit law will be filed pretty soon.

DeSantis may not be the next President, but he will be the next Republican president

r53- Scandals? This was the purpose of Qanon- If Hillary eats babies you can't blame ANY republican for only fucking and killing one. At least Epstein gave them money, Hillary drank their blood.

He must have gotten the idea from DL. People here assume and attack people based on beliefs though.

But wait, Republicans are anti-legislation, no?

Dear Cuban Republicans,

What do you think about this nueva politica? Does this remind you of home?

If you don't answer the survey do you mind if we check with the neighbors just for diversity purposes?

Cono, carajo, despiertense idiotas

When DeSantis starts shedding the pounds, that will be a sign that he's definitely throwing his hat in the ring to run for Pres.

Scariest politician in the country today.

I agree. He's the one to be nervous about.

Florida is a poorly run, racist shit hole and the people there love to vote for idiots, so they deserve what they get.

No amount of calamity is enough for me!

C'mon hurricane season Florida is waiting for you

Florida is getting redder

I live there, and it has become a redneck shithole.

[quote]Whether you fucking like it or not, when people are genuinely educated, they don't become a deplorable.

This is not true, I've known quite a few people with advanced degrees who are Q-Anon lunatic Trumpsters. They can solve the heck out of a difficult equation and speak three languages and solve complicated engineering problems but they also think viruses are fake and Biden is a hologram run by the Deep State.

[quote] He is a much smarter version of Trump

Which still = stupid. Perhaps he cheated his way through school.

R96, so they're just mentally ill like the unibomber.

Probably r98, I assume there's a combination of mental illness and religious indoctrination that causes people who should know better to believe in bizarre conspiracies.

It appears that DeSantis and Greg Abbott are haveing a “Trump-off.” There must be some contest to see which governed can make the most far-right whacko statements, sign the most bull shot laws, and institute mind-numbing new conservative policies.

These are people who loathe Trump for his stupidity, but have a fascistic streak like Trump. And yes, like others have stated: That they're much smarter is what makes them scary.

As with 9/11 being used to get an Iraq war, these far smarter scumbags are using Trump's popularity with his deplorables to pass legislation they've always wanted. They pretend to fawn over him and they get the policies that they want.

To be a Republican in the last 20 years, is to not believe in democracy; only absolute power.

R101 History will show that the Republican party of the late 20th and early 21st century were traitors to the Republic. Let's hope history will also show they failed.

[quote] And yet conservatives bitch about the "nanny state" and "thought police"

It's not an either/or proposition for teachers and students, although you are framing it as one.

BOTH the far right and the far left are trying to control what is taught on college and university campuses. The attempts at thought control come from both sides, especially if you teach anything having to do with the humanities.

the GOP = Thought police

[quote] BOTH the far right and the far left are trying to control what is taught on college and university campuses.

How exactly is the far left trying to control any education.

The left just points out injustices and colleges want to study how they came about. How is learning about reality "control"??

R105, these are the people who think they're just so "reasonable" when they play the "both sides" nonsense, yet they can't defend that position when you cite the differences between the two sides or they rationalize/justify the insanity of the right-wing and think that trying to kill the VP because he was abiding by his oath, is no different than the left wanting to have statues taken down. I don't recall the left showing up to threaten to kill those who opposed the removal.

R103, where it the "thought control' from the left.

I teach in a university and have only encountered this kind of intrusion from the right. But I can believe the left does this too. Where is it happening?

R103 must teach at Trump University

^ Or Hamburger University

[quote]I agree. He's the one to be nervous about.

Mike Pompeo is pretty fucking scary too.

R86, no one on the DL is mandating "surveys" for everyone in college. Try again

[quote]Mike Pompeo is pretty fucking scary too

He is, but to me he doesn't have the "it" factor of a DeSantis. Just based on looks and demeanor Pompeo has the appearance and delivery of an old school GOP politician (he's 57, but looks like he's 60-something). DeSantis is only 42, could be more attractive with weight loss, and isn't afraid of being a beligerent asshole on TV. Republicans love a short-fingered vulgarian.

What about me??? I"ll kiss anyone's ass!

R113: We know Nimrata. But your "Sikh"ret is safe with us, you honorary white chick you. *Wink, wink*

R111: I mean, we could survey young men in college.

1) How often are you nude? Are you ever nude in front of a roommate? Is your roommate ever nude in front of you? 2) Do you sleep in the nude or just in underwear? Is the underwear boxers, boxer briefs, or briefs? What colors? 3) What is your opinion of jock straps? Have you ever worn one? 4) Have you or your roommates every participated in what is known as a "circle jerk"? If yes, did you finish first? 5) Some college men experiment with other men and will sometimes engage in some sexual play. Have you done this? Would you like to? NOTE: If gay, please skip to next question. 6) What is your opinion of cam work as a means to raise money to pay tuition?

At the end of this survey, please enclose a picture of your face, another picture of your bare chest, a picture of your ass either clothed or unclothed, and the length of your erect penis in inches only. Datalounge thanks you for participating in the 2021 College Men Survey.

I find him a bit swishy when he talks. Wasn't he in the Navy? I smell circle jerks, barracks experimenting and soaps on shower floors when he speaks.
