    Connected: has everyone noticed that right wing nutsos are calling anyone critical of the Florida "Don't Say Gay" bill "groomers"? Ah yes, that old "gay people are pedophiles" trope from about 40 years ago. They truly do like nostalgia. Wonder what Dennis Hastert has to say about this.

    No. You have to actively haunt the most fringe corners of the internet to find your examples of “things all conservatives do”.

    Or see what's trending on Twitter, like "OK Groomer" was a couple of days ago.

    Oh, and actually listen to what actual Republican politicians, like, y'know, presidential favorite Ron DeSantis, are actually saying.

    The insane amount of insecure projection that people have these days (not talking about @Rastapopoulos here, but the people are like "eek! gay is bad, m'kay!" or "they're making it legal to kill babies after they're born!" or "I have no problems with the trans people but...")

    1. You haven't read the bill, so you don't know how much of a fool you are making of yourself.
    2. Neither has Far Left Extremist professional liar for NBC Ben Collins.
    3. Ben's links are to a fake account and a Canadian account.
    4. I just spent 2 weeks in the North half of Florida, from Sarasota to lower Alabama and it's the cleanest place I have ever seen, with even the most destitute homes having manicured lawns and a complete lack of junk.
    5. Not one employee anywhere I ate or shopped failed to express genuine, smiling friendliness, despite the prevailing Federal minimum wage they were likely earning. No businesses begging for workers.
    6. Outside of airports and Walmart, I was only able to count 11 people in 2 weeks who were wearing masks.
    7. Never saw ANY homeless people, anywhere. None. No tents. No abandoned shopping carts.
    8. A nearly total lack of political strife. A few signs for local candidates. No protests. No political/activist crap cluttering up the news. Talking politics is considered as rude as talking about how much money you make.
    9. I seriously only came across 2 rude people, both tourists. The worst was a total ass trying to steal someone's parking spot, from NY of course. The other was an old lady who I think was from Greece and appeared to be in a lot of pain, and used the waitress for an outlet.
    10. Lots of gay people, huge amount of diversity of all kinds, both locals and tourists, no eyebrows raised, no issues expressed. No hesitance to engage each other in genuine conversation, which is the #1 reason I love visiting there. Everyone I come in contact with is truly interested in getting to know a little about you, and share a little about themselves.
    11. Spending next January through March there next year.
    12. Did not go to Orlando, did not go to the East coast. Did not go South of Sarasota. I hear the Dems and their drug cartels have made it largely unlivable.

    You cannot possibly be serious? The Florida Panhandle is one of the poorest most destitute places in the country as well.

    But then you continue and say "Orlando" is unlivable?

    Not sure what your 2017 article condemning the Obama/Biden 8-year reign of financial terror against the lower and middle classes, pictures of historic architecture in need of repair, a nicely-remodeled historic home, a factory or shipping facility, happy well-clothed children enjoying a field trip to the historic district and learning a thing or two, a new auto parts store, and a well-maintained historic building are supposed to indicate?

    Gee, I wonder who this post was aimed for? LOL.

    Insecure projection? Just wow. So, what's your point?
