“We want our universities to be focused on critical thinking and academic rigor. We do not want them as basically hotbeds for stale ideology. That’s not worth tax dollars and not something we’re going to be supporting moving forward.” -- DeSantis

That doesn't mean the claim about the scary survey is true. It just isn't, if you read the text.

Like the anti-CRT bills, you have a combination of a muddled messaging bill & maximalist political statements designed to chill speech. Given this is a political battle, I think we have to give weight to the political statements.
