Eight Times Ron DeSantis "Accidentally" Did Racist Stuff

Miami New Times, SEPTEMBER 4, 2018

After enough racism scandals involving a particular political candidate, you'd think everyone might just admit that person is simply racist. Yet a whole lot of people — from bad-faith conservative pundits to easily fooled reporters — continue offering excuses for Republican gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis' infamous statement on Fox News that Andrew Gillum would "monkey... up" Florida.

SNIP…

1. He spoke at a Muslim-bashing event alongside Milo Yiannopoulos and Steve Bannon.

SNIP…

2. He called New York candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is a Puerto Rican woman, "whatever she is."

SNIP…

3. He defended a supporter who said "bring back the hanging tree."

SNIP…

4. He was moderator of a Facebook group that was a haven for racist memes and was run by lunatics.

SNIP…

5. He proudly associated himself with Sebastian Gorka, who has ties to a Hungarian far-right group that collaborated with the Nazis.

1. Recommended.

I'm glad that you are able to point out his least offensive behaviors. I find him even more toxic and dangerous that your OP documents. (grin)

Guy’s way more NAZI nowadays.

Gov. Ron DeSantis Wants to Defund Florida Universities That Teach Anti-Racism

DeSantis signed a law to track political beliefs at universities — and threatened budget cuts for those he doesn’t like.

The Intercept, June 27, 2021

MANY REPUBLICANS HAVE become invested in enforcing a white supremacist backlash in their states’ education system, but perhaps none so much as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

As dozens of bills are advancing in statehouses nationwide to ban the teaching of the basic truths of America’s racist history, DeSantis signed a bill into law this week that threatens to surveil and cut funding to public institutions of higher learning found to be on the wrong side of the Republicans’ ongoing white nationalist crusade.

Unlike much of the paranoiac legislation, like bills signed into law in Idaho and Texas — and in consideration in other places — the new Florida law does not deploy the right-wing canard of “critical race theory.” DeSantis signed a law that was written in the vaguest terms but was all too clear, given the current context, in its intent.

The law will require public universities and colleges to survey students, faculty, and staff about their beliefs and viewpoints. The governor and the bill’s lead sponsor, Florida state Sen. Ray Rodrigues, said the effort aims to support “intellectual diversity.” Though no mention of it is made in the law, DeSantis and Rodrigues said institutions found to be “indoctrinating” students risk losing crucial state funding.

There can be no doubt about what ideas DeSantis considers to be worthy of concern: Universities that take up the necessary work of challenging hegemonic racial capitalism and patriarchy are in the legislation’s crosshairs.

NAZIs is like the Old Outh plantation mindset where the best slaves can’t read and are thankful for food and a roof and stuff.

2. K&R nt

[IcyPeas]

3. then he should be recalled too

[BannonsLiver]

4. Recalled? At this point it's more likely he'll roll to re election if he wants to run again.

Florida voters aren’t going to hold him accountable for anything.

[quakerboy]

13. The ones that survive, anyway

I really think we need to stop focusing on florida. Its lost, let it go, lets take Texas instead.

[BannonsLiver]

20. AGREED.

[ancianita]

6. Florida law doesn't allow a recall of governors.

[whopis01]

15. Can't happen in Florida

There is no option for recalling the governor.

[SheltieLover]

5. Now he is killing kids with his policy

[turbinetree]

7. And its neck in neck to be the most evil ..orange hair pie hole or the Desatan mini-me.....

[mahatmakanejeeves]

8. Are you the least bit familiar with what the real Nazis did? You might want to look that up. Hint:

It was slightly more intense than "{calling} New York candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is a Puerto Rican woman, 'whatever she is.'"

[hadEnuf]

14. He might live up to it given the chance.

[Kid Berwyn]

22. Instituting policies that result in the deaths of children counts.

DeSantis imitates Trump, whose actions and inactions likely have killed untold hundreds of thousands.

So, yes, I do know what the NAZIs did. In fact, I’ve devoted a good part of my life to fighting them every way I can. Here’s one example of a DU post:

How Real Nazis Came to the Americas: the Recruitment of Klaus Barbie

ETA from 2013: Two Warren Commissioners had extensive ties to NAZI Germany...

And, for the record, I am a Puerto Rican man of English heritage via Wisconsin, “whatever that is.”

9. He's just playing the part that republican voters love above all else.

That being a phony tough guy. They love that shit. He could burn down retirement communities, smack around some elderly people, women and children and especially some blacks and as long as he was acting all gruff and tough, they wouldn't give a shit. They'd heap more praise upon him. I'm surprised he hasn't donned a cowboy hat and strapped a six-shooter to his belt yet. It's because of these charades of republicans that we can't have nice things and a decent society.

17. In reality he's an angry chihuahua from hell.

Small, loud, high-strung, shrill, nippy, and constantly getting rolled by bigger dogs.

18. Perfect!

10. He's dangerous

He's Trump, but cunning. Imagine a President Trump with a brain.

When it comes to 2024, he's who I worry about.

[Jon King]

11. I agree 100%, Desantis is the one to worry about...

He will be their nominee in 2024. With Repug legislatures being able to flip counties in GA and AZ that leaves MI, PA, WI as the only way to hold the Presidency.

Desantis has all the authoritarian desires of Trump, but with more thoughtful execution of a plan.

This guy is an absolute danger to democracy.

[NoMoreRepugs]

19. 1000% correct.

[appalachiablue]

26. +1

12. So your saying hes a Republican?

[johnthewoodworker]

16. Racist Republican, raging Nazi, they're the same people. They will never help America.

[Demovictory9]

21. Kick

24. Fuck that piece of shit

Where I come from, Nazis get PUNCHED.

25. Rolling the dice,

or losing half a classroom full of kids ? Either way he’s game, his kids are safe.
