People are really up in arms about schools not teaching children in pre-K through third grade about sexual orientation and gender identity. We mean, that’s what Florida’s bill would disallow, and we’d bet a good cross-section of Americans would have no problem with it. As we’ve noted, “critics” and the media have pushed the nickname “Don’t Say Gay” and are protesting … by saying “gay.”
If we’re reading the username on this TikTok video correctly, it looks like it was put together by Florida Rep. Anna V. Eskamani, and shows adults sticking it to the man by saying “gay,” the forbidden word. As John McCormack at NRO notes, they’ve revised the bill to change “classroom discussion” of sexual orientation and gender identity to “classroom instruction by school personnel.”
The Florida bill that opponents dubbed a “Don’t Say Gay” bill was significantly revised, but the change hasn’t gotten much attention in the press: https://t.co/cAteZhmMqI

Anyway, here’s that stunning and brave video:
Florida House Democrats put out this video. They literally have nothing to offer. They just walk around saying the word gay (which is not in the bill). How does anyone take these people seriously pic.twitter.com/gfDNhkdAaW

The GOP should spend one hundred million dollars to air this video in every state.

Why not just release a video saying you didn’t read the bill and call it good?

First of all, the kid saying 'gay' is raised by groomers. Second, the bill doesn't say gay. Third, if I say "that's gay," suddenly everyone is offended.

They redefine something then attack that non-mutually agreed upon redefinition.

Wow. This is powerful. Florida Democrats master the use of social to show that they are not at all condescending or cringey. Politically, this is a testament to where they are right now in Florida. Nonexistent.

There is a 100% chance this video backfires and becomes weaponized by internet trolls. Such a bad idea beyond just being a dumb way to take a jab at your political opponents.

Acting as if they're saying a pro democracy slogan in Hong Kong and are expecting police to arrest them any minute.

The Democrats totally lost me once they decided to prioritize men performing sexist stereotypes of women over actual women. 🙄

Dear god, all this bill does is prevent them from talking about the sexual orientation for kids up to 3rd grade. What is their obsession with sexualizing toddlers and young kids?! This is so WEIRD!

We don’t get it either … it must be very, very important to them that kindergarteners get classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity.
