  1. If you don’t understand why our bandshell has rainbow colors or take offense as to why it does then maybe Orlando isn’t the community for you.
  2. Even if desantis isn’t the cause of losing 2000 jobs and billions in investment. Is it pro business republicanism to create a feud with your largest employer and economic engine and make doing business in your state hell if you dare speak against their opinion. If republicans can’t run on being pro business what are they going to run on? Attacking trans people? Being anti-woke. That’s cute until you have to win something outside of a primary.
  3. My knowledge of the term woke comes from the black community that used the term as a joke towards people who were performative in their activism. I don’t think that’s how conservatives use it. It’s definitely not how desantis uses it, and the way he otherises people isn’t safe or healthy for the political climate of Florida or the country in general. That’s the last I’ll touch on it, online debates don’t interest me especially on a city forum.
  4. My account is new, but I’ve visited this forum since sunrail was a proposal. In terms of wokeism I have never been given a legitimate answer on what that even is. From what I’ve heard many people say the lgtbq+ community specifically now the trans community which deserve all the respect many claim the gay community does is inherently woke. Woke to me just sounds like an easy catchphrase to deny someone who is fighting for their rights.
  5. Enjoying the random island we decide to build in lake Eola.
  6. Idk not really doing a great job creating a welcoming space by demonizing us as groomers. Florida turned red but it’s not as simple as desantis attacked the “woke”. It’s a super complicated conversation that involves things like party apathy and voter apathy but I will say I am definitely glad I live in the blue island of orange where my representatives actually represent me. Like where’s the endgame for this woke stuff? How many concessions do communities like mine have to make for y’all to be satisfied?
