Big
Brother Daddy Donald "Cankles" Lump has decreed that no one can comment
negatively about Top MAGA Nerd Charlie Kirk. Only Positive BS is
allowed about the racist migogynistic Kirk. Be careful: Big Brother
Daddy Donald "Cankles" Lump is watching every word, every thought, and
every joke you may have. That is how he is making America great again:
by denying the American people the right to think differently
(conformity) or dissent.
A
Florida state government employee has filed a lawsuit after being fired
over a social media post about slain Radical Right extremist Charlie
Kirk, another example in a string of complaints around the country over
First Amendment rights.
Brittney Brown, a former state biologist
for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), was
fired on Sept. 15 for simply reposting someone else’s post. She filed a
lawsuit against the FWC.
A number of educators at U.S. schools
and universities have filed similar suits claiming their free speech
rights were trampled when they were fired for commenting about Kirk.
Dozens of employees across many fields have faced job-related
consequences for comments and social media posts, including
terminations, suspensions and investigations.
The post that got
Brown fired reads: "the whales are deeply saddened to learn of the
shooting of charlie kirk, haha just kidding, they care exactly as much
as charlie kirk cared about children being shot in their classrooms,
which is to say, not at all."
The post was condemned and shared
widely by extremist racists of the Radical Right which have also called
for Brown's firing. The FWC said Brown's comments were "not in line with
the FWC, our values, or our mission" in its announcement of her
termination. "We have a zero-tolerance policy towards the promotion of
violence and hate, and we will not stand for such behavior," the agency
said in a post on social media, saying that Brown's post "made light" of
Kirk's killing.
The lawsuit, filed Sept. 30 in federal court
in Tallahassee, will offer a glimpse of how federal courts react to
firings across the country after Kirk's assassination, especially those
of public employees who have some free speech rights under previous
federal court opinions. The complaint says FWC Executive Director Roger
Young and the employee's supervisor, Melissa Tucker, violated the First
Amendment. Specifically, Brown alleged that the two retaliated against
her discriminated against her viewpoint.
The complaint said
Brown's repost was not a "true threat" and not "obscene in whole or in
part." It also was not posted in ways relating to her job duties, since
her work doesn't involve whales and her position didn't include regular
interaction with the public; her biologist’s focus was on birds.
“It
is deeply disturbing and undemocratic to see such firings take place
across the state and in the country,” First Amendment attorney Gary
Edinger said in a statement. “We know that it will take all hands on
deck to protect our cherished freedoms and constitutional rights.” The
case was assigned to U.S. District Judge Mark Walker in Tallahassee.
Edinger
and attorneys with the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida are
involved in the suit. In a press release, ACLU of Florida Executive
Director Bacardi Jackson said: “The years-long effort to censor our
students, professors, and now state employees has become Florida’s
trademark but also a dangerous attempt to erode the limits of the First
Amendment to favor those in power. But we will not back down.”
Among
other things, Brown seeks to be reinstated with back pay, front pay,
plus compensatory and punitive damages. A FWC spokesperson was not
immediately available to comment on the suit late on Sept. 30. First
Amendment experts called this a phenomenon of "cancel culture" that
escalated due to emotional reactions to Kirk's death.
At least
three educators at public schools and a university in the U.S. have also
filed lawsuits against their employers after they were fired last
month, according to reporting from the USA TODAY Network.
From
left, the leading Florida morons Governor Ron DeSantis and Kari Lake
the Republican candidate for governor of Arizona. To the right is the
hypocrite nerd Charlie Kirk who mastered the art of camouflaging one’s
racism, xenophobia and misogyny under a veneer of fake civility. Kirk
was successful among the Fascists of this country because he found a
sleek way to slip his hatred into the conservation, something they
couldn't do without being exposed as Fascists.
One is a
teacher in Iowa who compared Kirk to a Nazi; another is a South Carolina
teacher's assistant who posted a Kirk quote and said she disagreed with
him but called the death a "tragedy"; and then an employee of an
Indiana university who said Kirk's death was wrong but condemned some of
his beliefs.
Nothing but the truth. Even if against me.
