Governor DeSantis’s policies targeting the LGBTQ community, restricting academic freedom, and banning diversity programs have negatively impacted Florida’s economy. Several organizations have canceled conventions and events in Orlando due to concerns over DeSantis’s “anti-woke” agenda, resulting in an estimated $20 million loss in revenue for the state. Despite this, DeSantis’s spokesperson dismissed the economic impact as a “media-driven stunt.” However, boycotts in the past have caused enough economic pain to lead to policy changes, so organizations avoiding Florida are doing the right thing by not spending money there while these policies remain in place.
The Tory party in the UK are at this point now. They’ve got little to show in terms of improving the country after 13 years of power so they’ve gone full bore into the culture war stuff.
Isn’t the poor track record about to catch up to them with the next general election, or is that just wishful thinking?
Most of the right wingers worldwide have been working together to gain and keep power while making things easier for their billionaire bosses, it’s not surprising that the Tory’s, the Republicans, the conservative parties of Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Ruzzia, Hungary, Turkey, etc. All have the same messaging, the same social, economic, and political goals, all utilize the same propaganda masters, Rupert Murdoch’s Newscorp among too many others, and all have the same or very similar fan boys across social media.
Global conservative Christians are the “New World Order” that the Conservatives try to scapegoat the Jews and the liberals as, they want to achieve power and control so that they don’t have to fix problems like bigotry, climate change, and everything else they now consider “woke” problems. (With “woke” just being the latest doublespeak racist dog whistle)
It always seems to be projection with conservatives, it’s very strange
