DeSantis rocked by Black Republican revolt over slavery comments - Lemmy.world

The bitter fight between Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Rep. Byron Donalds over a line about slavery in the state’s revised African American history standards is infuriating several prominent Black conservatives.

So it works by getting money, climbing the ladder, then yanking up the ladder and tossing a moletov on those below so that they can be a token for the default to go “We’re not homophobic, see we have gay/trans friends!”

Some people build their identity around who they are their hobbies etc. Other people build their identities around money and lack of empathy and understanding.
