Trans and #LGBTQ #gamedevelopment students are under attack at Florida public colleges and universities as we speak from DeSantis' alt right censorship.

Every #gamedev can actually do something to help real people RIGHT NOW

----->
1) Donate to the #SaveNewCollege fund and help us raise money for a legal defense against DeSantis' 'hostile takeover' of the most LGBTQ friendly campus in the state.

DeSantis wants to destroy New College and transform it into a private Christian school like Hillsdale College.

They are threatening to fire the faculty, plan on violating the students' right to free speech and scaring away LGBTQ students.

PM me about professional outreach for New College and UCF students.

I met with some LGBTQ #gamedevelopment students there and they were afraid.

Let's give them some hope!
Lastly, if you have a large Twitter following and feel so inclined, please give this a signal boost.

We are up against an authoritarian government rule here in Florida and need all the help we can get.

Thank you so much for your support!

To Florida State Representatives: @DannyBurgessFL @BobbyPowellJr @TinaPolsky @debbie_mayfield @ErinGrall @IleanaGarciaUSA

As a taxpaying Florida resident, business owner and New College of Florida alum, I respectfully caution you to not confirm appointees Rofu and Speir ...

⬇️
... to the New College of Florida's Board of Trustees.

Speir has a questionable background and a history of financially associating with criminals.

I encourage you to throughly investigate this before voting.

Rofu's on campus conduct and careless disregard for student safety, coupled with his aggressive use of language (i.e. hostile takeover) and mockery and antagonism against concerned students and their parents at the BOT mtg are major ethics concerns and should disqualify him.

DeSantis also appointed alt right Trustees to the board of New College of Florida. One of the an anti-trans, anti-CRT activist.

NCF is Florida's honor college and the most LGBTQ friendly campus in the state.

They've openly called it a 'hostile takeover' and ----->
... don't hide their plans to remake it into conservative Christian school like Hillsdale in MI, which is only known as a 'GOP aide factory.

On the other hand, New College is the top public liberal arts college in the country that is not affiliated with the U.S. military.

Alt right think tank the Manhattan Institute's Plan to Violate New College of Florida students' 1st Amendment Rights.

They're actually announcing this to the world.

From their blog post linked above:

"When a 'controversial' speaker from the right comes, do not allow threats of protest to force cancelation under any circumstances. Instead, hire overwhelming security for the event...
" ... You will have plenty of money as a result of firing the DEI bureaucracy. There should be only one rule on attending the events — no masks. Other than that, you want the protesters to come, and you want them to protest...

@franklinveaux I'm an emotional abuse survivor and your new blog post did *not* reflect that of someone abused.

Nor does your book 'Game Changer,' where you basically outline how to manipulate multiple women into buying into a situation they weren't comfortable with.

#MeToo
I went to New College too. You never mentioned being involved with their free-love, consensual non-monogamy scene.

Just stringing along a high school girlfriend.

Dating in college before your brain isn't fully developed isn't good source material on how to be 'poly.'
Yet, you like to sell people on believing your stories about fumbling your way through relationships with women is some how primo relationship pop-psychology material.

My dude, you do not even have a psych degree. You're in IT, right? You're not an expert. Stay in your lane.
