What? "Freedom of indoctrination"? Are not they experts in indoctrination? Nice try.
It sounds more like you will be free to be indoctrinated.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

“We disagree with the Court’s opinion that employers can require employees to be taught — as a condition of employment — that one race is morally superior to another race. The First Amendment protects no such thing, and the State of Florida should have every right to protect Floridians from racially hostile workplaces. We are reviewing all options on appeal going forward.”
I have an extremely low opinion of intelligence of the "anti-woke" warriors but, like, do people really think that's what's happening? They're honestly thinking DEI stuff is teaching that one race is "morally superior" to another? That's just a wild fucking line to throw in there.
I think their thinking (and calling it that is a stretch) is that by educating on the past and present injustices and therefore showing the fallibility of the white christian class, it somehow elevates other populations above them. There's a term for that, but I can't remember it. "fucking delusional"? Nah, that's... No, that fits...
They’re honestly thinking DEI stuff is teaching that one race is “morally superior” to another?
It's because they've been told they were special, and it hurts their personal self-esteem to learn that they're equal. Bunch of snowflakes.
Needs to be laws that cause repercussions for fucks who sign draft and pass laws found to be this ridiculously plainly and obviously unconstitutional.
This is exactly why his campaign crashed and burned. Glad to see him continue this clownery even after that.
Anyone that uses "woke" as a pejorative really just wants to say the n-word instead, but don't think they can get away with it yet.
That's not true at all. Sometimes they mean "gay," "empowering women," or "left of Joe Manchin." Give credit where is due, these people suck way more than you make it sound.
(Woke is) the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.
-Lawyer Ryan Newman, representing Florida man Governor Ron Dipshit.
That sounds like a pretty woke definition. Burn him?
Turns out, you can lie all you want in the court of public opinion, but you can't lie at all in the court of law.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ron DeSantis signed in 2022 as part of his war on “woke ideology.” It was intended to prevent teachings or mandatory workplace activities that suggest a person is privileged or oppressed based on their race, color, sex or national origin.
“Yesterday, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit held that companies have a right to indoctrinate their employees with racist and discriminatory ideologies,” the statement said.
The challenge to DeSantis’ “Stop WOKE Act” was brought by two Florida-based employers who wanted to require diversity and inclusion training for staff and a consultant.
The appeals court agreed, saying, “Even if we presumed that the Act served the interest of combating discrimination in some way, its breadth and scope would doom it.
Opponents of the “Stop WOKE Act” are fighting it on three fronts: the law’s effects on K-12 schools, higher education and employers.
Last year, a federal appeals court ruled that a temporary block on part of the law restricting what can be taught in Florida’s public colleges and universities will remain.
