Videos that compare climate activists to Nazis, portray solar and wind energy as environmentally ruinous and claim that current global heating is part of natural long-term cycles will be made available to young schoolchildren in Florida, after the state approved their use in its public school curriculum.

Slickly-made animations by the Prager University Foundation, a conservative group that produces materials on science, history, gender and other topics widely criticized as distorting the truth, will be allowed to be shown to children in kindergarten to fifth grade after being adopted by Florida’s department of education.

    Ensuring the brain drain and rot in Florida continues. Not that it matters what they teach anymore since climate change will solve our Florida problem before any of those kids are adults anyway.

      Brain drain is real. I’m an electrical engineer at a small utility in FL. 3 engineers have left the state to work elsewhere in the year that i’ve been here, I’m about to be the 4th. That only leaves 2 in my office, not counting the managers that are all retiring in the next couple years. They can’t seem to hire anyone even with competetive pay. Maybe anecdotal but if the only professionals that stay in FL are the ones that believe in ‘alternative facts’ I don’t see how they’re going to keep the lights on.

      Do you imagine all 22 million of them standing on their rooftops giving the world a final salute as the water rises over their nostrils? As much as I might want that to be the case, there’s no way they’re going down with the ship. These indoctrinated trolls will be relocating in droves, possibly to a neighborhood near you.

    Wow. Prager University has just gotten one step closer to being a real university.

    If anything this guarantees that any sheepskin of diploma from FL isn’t worth the ink written upon it… want to live in a dreamland, Rhonda?! No problem… but the illusion will NEVER EXTEND BEYOND YOUR BORDERS. Reality holds sway out here

    Jfc Florida is such a shit hole. If it were a state I had to drive through to get somewhere else I’d find a route around it so it gets none of my business, not even from stopping for fuel
