Republican senator Rick Scott decided to take his family to Disney this week, but that choice has seen him ridiculed online given he previously wrote a piece for the Washington Examiner about the company being “woke-central”.

In a piece for the outlet published almost exactly three years ago (April 2022), the Florida senator said: “Disney used to be the happiest place on Earth, now it’s just woke central. It’s on the losing side of an issue that the majority of families, regardless of political ideology, agree with.

“Disney is mad that Florida will not allow teachers to talk to five-year-olds about sex. Florida families couldn’t disagree more.

“I’ve enjoyed taking my children and grandchildren to Disney World, and I really had no problems with Disney in my eight years as Florida’s governor. But now, just like many huge corporations in America, it’s going woke. It’s really a shame.

This is the same Rick Scott who was CEO of Columbia/HCA when they perpetrated the largest Medicare and Medicaid fraud in United States history, he was forced to resign, and pled the 5th 75 times in a civil trial deposition.

Yet another GQPer who should be locked up.

2. How in holy hell do people vote for proven fraudsters who STOLE TAXPAYER MONEY?

The USA is a failed state because of the gullibility and stupidity of it people.

3. Ask the people who live in Asheville what they think of him!

His HCA hospital is hated by many. We were there a few years ago and saw the nurses go on strike. There have been many stories over the years but the one that concerns our family the most is.....why did ALL the oncologists leave Mission Hospital? Intense staffing shortages, reduced resources, and a shift in focus toward profitability following the acquisition by HCA Healthcare.

4. Senator Medicare-Fraud is one of the reasons we won't move to FL.

6. In addition to the bugs and assorted invasive creepy crawlies. And the heat. And sea level rise.

I'm not sure which is worse.

5. It's all about feeding BS to the rubes and low info people

Pukes don't buy the BS they're selling. It's meant only to keep rubes enraged and voting against their best interests. it keeps them looking at the Puke's left hand, while the right hand (i.e., corporate America and the billionaire class) steals their wallet.

9. AND it's easy to do this since so much of our media is owned by right wing oligarchs

8. The malevolent spawn...

... of an unholy union between Lurch and Uncle Fester probably doesn't even know – or care – what the actual definition of "WOKE" is.
For your edification, Mr. Scott, kindly attend:

[To be] aware of, and actively attentive to, important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)
– Merriam Webster's Dictionary

If you take issue with that admirable goal, you malignant turd, you have NO business defiling a seat in this nation's Senate. Slither back into your sewer, and shut the fuck up. Forever would be nice.

10. Fuck Rick Scott.

Seriously, fuck him and all the crooked people like him, making a crooked fortune off of the taxpayers, evading all justice and then pretending to be morally superior.

Fuck him.
