  • I'm not trying to be argumentative, but I get the same sort of feeling when I am told I should just pick up and move out of Florida when I've lived here my whole life. I don't like the bullshit policies these clowns like DeSantis put in place, but running away doesn't help things either. Better to try to work to make people see how shitty the politicians are making life for everyone here than running to greener pastures.

    At least until the climate forces me out, which may come sooner than I want.

  • Only hearing about the crazy shit is the same reason Florida seems so crazy. "Sunshine Laws" in Florida mean arrest records are public information in Florida. A cottage industry has sprung up around scouring arrest records for ludicrous arrests or weird things that happened around them. It's not that Florida is any more crazy than the rest of the country. We just hang our dirty laundry in the front lawn for everyone to see. Don't believe that crazy ass shit isn't happening in your neck of the woods, too.

    That said, Florida is kind of crazy, though. At least some of it is imported crazy from other areas, though.

  • In my town, a sheriff deputy was sworn in and fired later in the same day for stalking and trying to use his position to solicit nude photos from an underage high school student. I think we win the terrible judgement contest.

  • Republicans are all about controlling what other people can and cannot do. Throw some evangelical "morality" on top of that and now a fetus is sacred and sex is sinful.

  • I get what you're saying, but I've lived my entire life in Florida and I've never been a supporter of conservative policies. I didn't vote for climate change and I'm certainly not in support of of repealing policies to at least slow it down. Me and my family are going to suffer from this just the same. I understand you want to feel the joy at the suffering of climate change deniers, but there's a lot of people here who don't deserve what we're going to get. A lot of us may not have the ability to just leave and go elsewhere and are going to suffer anyway. Unfortunately, the people who most deserve what they get have enough money to escape it and aren't going to suffer the consequences.
