    NBC News host Chuck Todd complained over the weekend that Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis signed into law "Victims of Communism Day" which teaches students in the state the far-left ideology's murderous history.

    Todd made the remark Sunday on "Meet the Press" while discussing remarks that DeSantis made in Las Vegas over the weekend.

    "We're also the first state in the country to establish every November 10th, the day in our schools is earmarked, to teach our students at all grade levels about the evils of Communist regimes throughout history," DeSantis said. "We're going to tell the truth about Marxism and Leninism."

    "I went to Florida public schools," Todd declared, "We were taught this, it was called history. It just seems like a weird politicizing, you know, he's going out of his way to politicize something."

    TRANSCRIPT:

    CHUCK TODD: Well, and that's the question. I don't know if DeSantis is going to be talking to swing voters. Here's one of the things he said in Vegas yesterday. Take a listen to this.

    [BEGIN TAPE]

    GOV. RON DeSANTIS:

    We're also the first state in the country to establish every November 10th, the day in our schools is earmarked, to teach our students at all grade levels about the evils of Communist regimes throughout history. We're going to tell the truth about Marxism and Leninism.

    [END TAPE]

    CHUCK TODD: You know, Jonathan, it's sort of like, look, being a Floridian, I sort of know what he's trying to -

    JONATHAN MARTIN: Who he's talking to there.

    CHUCK TODD: What he's trying to play there and all of that. But I would tell him, I went to Florida public schools. You know, we were taught this, it was called history. It just seems like a weird politicizing, you know, he's going out of his way to politicize something.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?

Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.

No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.

I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

Considering how abjectly corrupt and civilly abusive the Left has become regarding the corrosive effect of their elected leaders; their entrenched and ruling bureaucracy; employing their failed Education Industry as Indoctrinators; their collusive private sector operators, such as the terminally discredited Legacy Media and Big Tech censorship of Free Speech: What will be the best course forward for hardworking Middle Americans, including the Patriot Class?

Withdraw from society, go underground and plan for a resurgence when it is feasible to do so.

Work within the confines of better policy by the People's government, once good sense and sanity is restored in the electorate at large, to achieve such.

Are you a crazy, nut-job Insurrectionist? Everything is perfect within our plan to achieve our intended goals for the Socialist Left.

Secession to form a true Constitutional Republic.
