I’m not sure you’ve guessed anything correctly in a long, long time.

Sexual orientation is is in it. That relates to being gay or straight.

So 'sexual orientation' is a code word for being homosexual or heterosexual?
How do tell the difference in meaning?
I better starting learning how to interpret Progressive key words.
I'm still trying to learn the LGBTQ+ abbreviation since so many different intersectional groups are trying to fit under the same crowded umbrella.

Then what? That it's ok to be trans?

Yup. Just like you wouldn't be teaching five year olds that it's OK to drink whisky or smoke weed.

Its the wording in the law. You don't know what it means?

You carry on about indoctrination but refuse to say what position they are being indoctrinated into.

No, I have said that in this thread. You’re simply lying.

Please give the post number where you say what specific position they are being indoctrinated. into.

Thank you for admitting to how you see trans people.

“Ok” isn’t a term I’d used to describe someone with a mental health issue, no. Regardless, that is still not what that post meant.

Ok well don't bother to tell people your beliefs, I'm sure they're too damning.

No. If you’re having memory issues today and can’t recall where in the last 50 posts I answered your question I suggest you search fo the posts from me replying to you in this thread. It won’t take you long.

Because you can't. You can go on and on about indoctrination but either have no clue as what position they are indoctrinating children into, or lack the stones to say it.

"ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Officials with the Florida Department of Education say they rejected 41% of math instructional materials submitted for consideration to the state — the most in its history. According to the department, the rejected materials either didn't align with state standards or contained prohibited topics, like critical race theory. ...The release said 71% of submitted materials were rejected for grades K-5; 20% were rejected for grades 6-8; and 35% were rejected for grades 9-12.A total of 28 books were not adopted because the state claims they incorporated prohibited topics or unsolicited strategies, like CRT.

"It seems that some publishers attempted to slap a coat of paint on an old house built on the foundation of Common Core, and indoctrinating concepts like race essentialism, especially, bizarrely, for elementary school students," Gov. Ron DeSantis is quoted as saying in a release from the FLDOE.

Morgan Polikoff is an associate professor of education with the University of Southern California's Rossier School of Education. Polikoff studies curriculum policy, which he said includes how states decide what textbooks to adopt. He said ..."I don't think that there's really any evidence that critical race theory is filtering into K-12 textbooks that I'm aware of...Florida and many other states have passed various kinds of restrictions relating to what kinds of content appears in curriculum materials and teachers' instruction, and critical race theory is definitely a concern....So, it doesn't surprise me that a textbook evaluation in Florida might find evidence of critical race theory in textbooks, but I think a different committee in a different state that didn't have such concern would probably not find evidence.""

One notices the way the governor portrays the deceitful nefariousness of these rejected books, as if there is some sort of hidden conspiracy afoot. This suggests an element of paranoia, which the professor suggests in his observation that what they are seeing in these books might not actually be there at all.

I'm wondering if it's the "=" sign in math books that have these right-wing kooks up in arms.

The GOP always waving the free speech flag when it comes to lies but when it comes to facts..
Not so much.

Nope. No sea lioning
I hear lots of people talk about crt..and how it shouldn't be taught..etc.
But funny ..when I ask them to define it..they can't.
Can you define crt? How can we debate on a debate board when you can't define what you are debating?

I’ve posted extensively about CRT here on DP, what is it, what it’s not, and what’s wrong with it. Here’s s sample.

CRT - Questions Answered

This is obviously absurd. I don't recall there ever being a white supremacist terrorist attack in the past 30-40 years at least. When federal agencies state things that go against reality they are lying. I know they're federally agencies and you think that means they are some sort of Messiah...

Thanks. So what is your problem with crt then?
Do you claim that that there is no such thing as institutional racism?
 
They probably encourage their kids to watch Fox News with them at night.

And then the kids probably grow up to be totally liberal when they get around sane people.

Nope. Not a thing about trans people. The point is five year olds. But thank you for admitting the point went flying over your head.

I have you an example of the curriculum that addresses white supremacy in math. Not sure what more of an example you are looking for.

Anti-racism is at the core of CRT. Done some homework.
