There is a concerted effort to demolish education in the country. An educated populace is a dangerous one, so we can’t have that.

Using your reference of Florida, that’s a case study and weird, fucked up Petri dish for what you get when you actively sabotage an already ailing education system.

But votes are what matter to these people, and we all know who the uneducated (and/or willfully ignorant) like to vote for.
