The Florida law must scare your average Florida teacher of history and various others liberal arts subjects. As you say, how does a teacher ensure he or she avoids making a student "feel" uncomfortable about a subject that would likely cause students to reflect on ideas that can naturally make people feel uncomfortable?

To me this seems like right wing cancel culture. Some white kids might get offended by the often tough realities of teaching the history of slavery in America, so Florida Republicans have used Big Government to cancel any teacher who's teaching might hurt these kids feelings. Sound familiar?
