Ron DeSantis, continuing his months-long, fear-based attack on the LGBTQ community, appears to be claiming that elementary school teachers are “instructed” to tell children they they might be transgender, and insisting if anyone dares to disagree with him, they are “lying.”

“This will be for elementary school kids, where they’re instructed to tell them, ‘You may have been born a boy, that may have been what you said, but maybe you’re really a girl.’ That’s wrong. That has no place in school – so that is happening in our country. Anyone that tells you it’s not happening is lying to you,” - Ron DeSantis

I share the concerns with the Twitter user who warns: "Lies like this are going to end up getting teachers killed. But he doesn’t care as long as it helps him win the Iowa Straw poll.”

    One of pb's great amusements is following Libs of TikTok on Twitter.

    I see evidence of the grooming of young children by elementary school teachers nearly every day, usually multiple times a day.

    It's no lie. It is abundantly true. I don't know who's fanning the flames of the grooming. I only know it's happening and, based on Libs of TikTok, apparently, proudly...until the teacher finds himself being busted by a tweeter with nearly one and a half million followers.

    DeSantis is, merely, describing what's happening.

    This will be for elementary school kids, where they’re instructed to tell them, ‘You may have been born a boy, that may have been what you said, but maybe you’re really a girl.’

    You really believe that teachers are "instructed' to tell their students that?

    That's why DeSantis put that out there - because he knows there are chumps like you who will believe it.

    I said that I don't know who's fanning the flame.

    It seems to be going on far and wide.

    "I said that I don't know who's fanning the flame."

    I do. In this case, DeSantis is fanning the flames.

    So, DeSantis is grooming kids for the LGBT gang? Curious. I've never seen him on Libs of TikTok.

    I think you misunderstood the quote. It's the curriculum that is telling the teachers to say because of the "gender reassignment training that's being introduced K-12 (now 4-12).

    (Ron) "“This will be for elementary school kids, where they’re instructed to tell them,

    (the curriculum uses this teaching aid for the teacher) ‘You may have been born a boy, that may have been what you said, but maybe you’re really a girl.’

    (Ron again) That’s wrong. That has no place in school – so that is happening in our country. Anyone that tells you it’s not happening is lying to you,” - Ron DeSantis"

    That paragraph was written really poorly. There are a lot of switches in it.

    "I think you misunderstood the quote. It's the curriculum that is telling the teachers to say because of the "gender reassignment training that's being introduced K-12 (now 4-12)." - olde dud

    So you've read Florida's "gender reassignment training that's being introduced K-12 (now 4-12)"?

    Btw, I'm a transsexual, and I'd never tell a student that. But if I were a public school teacher in Florida, I'd be afraid for my life right now, because DeSantis just painted a big bullseye on the backs of LGBTQ+ teachers.

    "So you've read Florida's "gender reassignment training that's being introduced K-12 (now 4-12)"?"

    We covered this earlier. Yes, that's what the "Don't say Gay" bill was about. The gender identity curriculum started in K.

    Btw, I'm a transsexual, and I'd never tell a student that. But if I were a public school teacher in Florida, I'd be afraid for my life right now, because DeSantis just painted a big bullseye on the backs of LGBTQ+ teachers.
    You didn't read my post, did you? That's what the curriculum "suggestion" about how trans teachers should talk to their kids.

    DeSantis is agreeing with you. FWIW, I agree with you. Although things are very liberal in that facet even in the conservative sections. Folks are very conservative Libertarians. I don't expect the government to break down my door, and I don't expect them to do it to you. (both a personal "you" and the generic "you.")
