  It's Florida, there never were rails.
context: why does a governor have the power to issue and revoke liquor licenses? >
  
  It’s the power of small government. >
  
  So small it can into all the nooks and crannies of your life. Duh.
  /s >
  
  Into the nooks and crannies of your daughter’s menstrual cycle. >
  
  I truly cannot believe that this guy could be so sick and vulgar as to even entertain this disgusting proposal! >
  
  Really?? Haven't you been paying attention?? >
  
  gestures at the whole of American partiarchal history >
  
  This guy should scare the hell out of everyone.
  Thinking he is considered as an alternative for president is the scariest ever I felt about a presidential election.
  He is dangerously unhinged and hateful. >
  
  And some Republicans will try to tell you that they eventually had enough of Trump's antics, so they need to support someone like Ron DeSantis instead.  Nope, buddy, you're still a fascist.  Fuck off! >
  
  That’s like saying you’re tired of Mussolini, so you backed Hitler. >
  
  Anton Drexler instead of Mussolini.
  He's the one who founded the anti-semitic organization that eventually became the Nazi Party. Hitler was a charismatic recruit who started the big recruitment push. >
  
  So he was like Ronald Reagan for Barry Goldwater? >
  
  That's a really good comparison. >
  
  Why the fuck does the governor have any say over an individual liquor license? Does he also write parking tickets? He’s an embarrassment to every single thing the US stands for. Fuck you, Ronald. >
  
  We need to get rid of all the Onalds >
  
  Surely you don’t include friendly old man O’hnonalds of Killarney? >
  
  Only the Onalds spelled Onald >
  
  Seriously asking, has anyone heard a libertarian complaining about Ron DeSantis’ political overreach?  The guy is a straight up authoritarian but the small government libertarians haven’t uttered a peep.
  This is why their party is considered a clown show. >
  
  Libertarians are just republicans who don’t want the label >
  
  Libertarians are Republicans who realize that most women stop talking to them if they say they are Republican >
  
  And are yet too stupid to realize nothing gets a woman drier than saying you're a libertarian. >
  
  Plenty fall for it. It's an easy way for conservative men in liberal enclaves to still remain in the functional dating pool. >
  
  Because it sounds better than being a conservative. Shocker that men are using coercion to get into bed with women /s >
  
  why doesn't he go after parents who take their kids to r rated movies >
  
  or Hooter's >
  
  Or church >
  
  Church leaders groom and abuse children more than drag queens (which is none, ever.) >
  
  The party of small, non-interventionist government, everyone. The aristocrats! (Sorry this was so blue, but they give you no choice.) >
  
  Literally waging war on christmas lol. >
  
  This is the most important thing needed in Florida right now?  
  What's wrong with these people? >
  
  You’d think there were drag shows and trans athletes on every block in America for how much of a energy Republicans put into demonizing them.
  I’d sure love to know what percentage of Americans have encountered either, in person, ever, in their whole lives.
  (I’d love it more if violent fascist bigots weren’t controlling policy, but still curious about the stat). >
  
  I've often heard people say something like, "I don't have any problem with gay people. I just don't want it shoved down my throat all the time." I always think, "Then stop paying attention to conservative media. It's almost the only thing they talk about." >
  
  That’s a really good point! 😆 >
  
  Wait til he starts pulling drivers licenses/ plates for displaying things he doesn't like. 
   I'd already been out of zombie land. >
  
  Sad part is, I'm just waiting until it somehow becomes a requirement to put a dumbass DeSantis sticker on my car in order to prove solidarity against woke culture or some bullshit. Can't wait to fight that one. >
  
  While I do joke about the abysmal critical thinking skills of his main base, I think armbands would be too on the nose for them not to notice.
  Politcal car stickers to 'own/trigger the libs' though? Right up their alley alongside Thin Blue Line Punisher stickers. >
  
  They’ve been panicking about marks on the forehead and hands for decades. Imagine if he started talking about putting trackers into women’s skin on the back of their hands. Watch them suddenly think what they’ve been calling the “mark of the Beast” for at least 20 years is totally fine, guys! >
  
  I am still perplexed as to why we aren't seeing a flurry of lawsuits over all this crap, from banning books in schools and public libraries to banning drag shows that are entertainment.  These are ALL first amendment violations, and people have the constitutional right to freedom of expression.  I mean, at the rate he is going, he will ban people from being able to purchase certain books and wearing certain clothes, etc.  Is he going to mandate everyone has to attend church too?? >
  
  Lawsuits take money, time, and lawyers.  They are expensive and slow, fascists know this so they do what they want and retaliate at everyone along the way.  DeSantis cut off his nose to spite Disney and his base loved him for it, he will do whatever he wants because no one can stop him.
  Outlawing wearing gender-non-conforming clothing is definitely something that we used to do that I'm sure Republicans would love to see come back. >
  
  Where is the ACLU? They are well funded. >
  
  Thank you for reminding me. I give to the ACLU every month. I just texted them to ask them if they are going to go after his fascist policies. We will see. >
  
  Did they sell alcohol to them? Were they unaccompanied? If you dont want to see a Drag show, dont fucking go, dont want an abortion, don't fucking have one. Am tired of these fucks saying they stand for freedom while taking rights away. >
  
  According to the actual complaint, they didn’t even cite an instance of children being present. The concern was that the show was advertised as “all ages welcome”, so a child might have attended. >
  
  He's for "parental rights" except when he disagrees with the parents, of course. >
  
  100% this going to court, 100% we are footing the bill for another stupid fucking culture war!  Fuck this guy! >
  
  To be consistent, all politicians who campaigned with this dude should resign.
  Giuliani in Drag >
  
  And Giuliani’s liquor license should be revoked as well. >
  
  You only need the liquor license to sell liqueur.  Rudy drinks it too fast to have any chance of selling it. >
  
  How does the governor of any State have authority over liquor licenses? Is the Florida Constitution three sentences, written in crayon? This isn’t even possible in my state. >
  
  Fucking fascist. >
  
  This is normal governor work stuff? 🤔 >
  
  It is in Florida if you are trying to excite the rednecks over a presidential bid.  Fascism in 2023, who would have thought?
  Everyone in Florida should be embarrassed by this guy >
  
  Makes sense…but if he wants to get serious about exciting dummies that vote for him, he needs to get himself one of those AR-15 pins STAT. >
  
  The progress the LGBTQ+ community has made is quickly evaporating in these fascist states.  Next year will be the 20 anniversary of the legal recognition of same-sex marriage, when the MA supreme court declared  gay marriage was an equal rights issue, and the MA senate and house fought back an attempt to stop the court action with a constitutional amendment.  I am not saying that life is perfect for members of the queer community here, there will always be a few haters, but think about queer communities that have to face state-sponsored attempts to eridicate them, like in Florida. >
  
  Yeah, agreed, the reds are working hard to suppress pretty much every one’s rights, except those “super oppressed” white males. >
  
  Way to go Florida! Good job electing the next American Hitler. >
  
  He’s off the fucking rails
