Money that used to flow into the state during presidential elections has all but stopped, another indication that Florida's time as a major swing state is no more.
Floridians are just as intelligent and prone to moments of stupidity as the rest of the country. They just seem like exceptional idiots because of Florida’s Sunshine Laws, which publicize ridiculous, headline-grabbing incidents. Now, reporters actively search for funny/outrageous Florida stories, and the process feeds itself. The Sunshine Laws are responsible for most of the Florida Man jokes you’ve seen.
No, I’m not a publicly agent for the state of Florida. Actually, I think it would be a terrible place to live. They’re not idiots, though.
No bro, I’ve been here 5 years and these people are not intelligent. Sure there are intelligent people, but taken as a whole Floridians are suffering a mental and intellectual disadvantage.
Incompetence is a fact of life here, and literally every single waking hour of every single day is affected by it in some way.
I get your sentiment, but after traveling around the US for a couple decades, hands-down-bar-none these are the dumbest people (en masse) that I have ever encountered.
[edit] Just go to any grocer and stand at the self-checkout and just watch for an hour. Minimum .25% of the people will be operating at the absolute limit of their mental capacity. No shit. It’s amazing and horrifying.
So im gonna preface this by saying the furthest ive gone east is Arkansas. But I swear to fuck Florida plates will handsdown be the worst drivers in a pretty sizable radius, like driving down the wrong side of the highway after pulling a uey bad. Mind you they aint the most psychotic drivers, that goes to Idaho. But Idaho is just kinda doing their own thing, while everyone is playing chess Idaho has glued itself to the ceiling and is pissing into its own mouth.
Yeah. Okay. What you say makes sense, and I’m not a big fan of starting arguments. I also appreciate that you said “I get your sentiment…” You got my meaning and considered it. Disagreements on the internet don’t often go that way.
Some doctorates are only earned because mommy and daddy made it easy to get in or have an easier life, so it doesn’t really predicate being intelligent or wise
Relativism won’t save Florida. I’ve spent plenty of time there and have even travelled fully north to south and south to north. I’ve also lived in Louisiana and spent time in all parts of Texas and Mississippi. Florida really is on a different level.

Okay. I’ll take the word of a well-traveled resident!
Ok?

And I genuinely don’t want people to make the same mistakes as I did.
Have a wonderful week.
The smartest regular citizens I’ve met have so far been in NY, MA or MN
CA has a huge population of doctorates.
