Ron Desantis stays one step ahead of the folks. This is what is needed to stop this country from ripping itself apart, IMHO.

Here's what Florida employers need to know if DeSantis approves new 'anti-woke' law
House Bill 7 (“Individual Freedom”) could restrict the ability of Florida businesses’ to present programs that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.
...In practice, the bill would amend the Florida Civil Rights Act and make it unlawful for employers to subject workers to “training, instruction, or any other required activity” that promotes or compels them to believe the following concepts: That virtues such as merit, excellence, hard work, fairness, neutrality, objectivity, and racial colorblindness are racist or sexist, or were created by members of a particular race, color, sex, or national origin to oppress members of another race, color, sex or national origin....
POTENTIAL FALLOUT FOR EMPLOYERS If an employee believes their employer has violated any of those principles when delivering a training program, they can sue and pursue a claim for relief, including damages and attorneys’ fees.
A SOLUTION FOR ‘A PROBLEM THAT DOESN’T EXIST “This law is trying to fix a problem that doesn’t exist,” she said. “But please know that when I say bogus lawsuits exist, they do. People can find an attorney that works on contingency now and then, who will take something like this because it may make them some money on a contingency basis. They may get some publicly, they may get some attention — and that is going to be the chilling effect.”
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES? Another issue is that part of the reason why employers have training programs in the first place is to insulate themselves from liability, Leibovitch said. Training sessions can offer employers a layer of protection to say they tried to prevent wrongdoing in the workplace if an employee acts inappropriately. The company can still be liable, but those programs can show they tried to tell employers not to act in a certain way....

1. Well that violates a whole host of federal laws.
The DoJ should have a detail to specifically watch out for Florida ****ery and stop the state from engaging in this frivolous and costly bullshit.
She keeps using that phrase. She used it in the threads about the illegals being shipped to D.C., but I don't think she knows what it means. She never posts not even ONE law being broken even though there are a "host of them."

Yes, scary! I'm absolutely heartbroken I can no longer be forced to attend a class on how evil and racist I am because I'm a white guy.

9. Now Florida companies that find it necessary to hold training sessions for male employees,
to avoid costly sexual harassment complaints and suits, will run afoul of this absurd law. Apparently, DeSantis believes such “training, instruction, or any other required activity” will discomfit entitled male managers, depriving them of their God-given right to act out their workplace sexual fantasies.
And human resource professionals who promote merit, excellence, hard work, fairness, neutrality, objectivity, and racial colorblindness in hiring or promoting practices will be accused of racism or sexism. I guess DeSantis feels the white good ol' boy system needs to be protected, and everyone else should just learn to accept their place.
Christ, DeSantis is crazier than Trump.

10. So, state universities won't be able to have diversity training
Or require sexual harassment/Title IX training? Will they still have Title IX officers????

If all the woke employees in Florida quit, think of the huge increase in productivity!
Also, Karen who makes $150K/yr does not agree with Governor DeathSantis. Neither do her friends on NextDoor, Becky and Susan.

I suspect this isn't going to have the effect they are expecting. It basically means that you can't have training that forces "anyone" attending the training to think less of themselves.
-
So DUpipo advocate racism and sexism when the targets are white straight males, plus-or-minus some white straight "breeders". Got it.

They say they believe in democracy, majority rule, yet look at who they attack, who they claim as their biggest enemy through their words and actions:
The supermajority - White and/or strait people.

I think that is exactly what they are expecting. To them it is absolutely horrible that the 'diversity' trainings can no longer target white, straight, males, and that upsets them. To the liberals it's far past time to point out just how evil this group of people is AND it needs to be done in front of groups of people if at all possible. Forcing folks to attend that type of training is right up their alley and they're losing that little power.

In 2007, DeSantis reported to the Naval Special Warfare Command Group in Coronado, California, where he was assigned to SEAL Team One and deployed to Iraq with the troop surge as the Legal Advisor to the SEAL Commander, Special Operations Task Force-West in Fallujah

Recognize, bitch. Not our fault all of you are too ***** to serve.

There is nothing in the law that stops diversity training. In fact it enhances it by saying such training MUST say everyone in deserves equal dignity and respect no matter skin color, ethnicity or sex. It just says you cannot blame Whitey for everything any more.
No way does a challenge to this stand.

Having experienced such training exercises since the onset of widespread political correctness in the late 80's, it's all gone into "blame whitey, hate whitey" territory. This law would put an end to that. If you don't like it, Floridians, pack your shit and **** off to California.

Easy... there are more than enough quacks here, DO NOT ENCOURAGE MORE!
