the uf chapter was disbanded by the florida republican grouo themselves.

i know its state, i meant "does being a state schill make it part of the givernment" - since only the government makes it a first admendment issue

Right. This one is funded and run by the state of Florida, it becomes an extension of government. So in the case of this school, yes.

ACLU affiliate NYCLU (New York Civil Liberties Union) sued the private ivy league Columbia University over the "suspension of pro-Palestinian groups" so the ACLU of Florida could choose to help these neo-nazis; since the ACLU has in the past helped neo-nazis, Republicans, the KKK, and other horrible groups.

The "tolerating the intolerant" which only managed to make those assholes more defiant instead of nipping them in the bud.

They disbanded themselves? That just means they'll regroup under a different name. They're MAGAs, they don't do ANYTHING in good faith, and the young ones are probably the most sociopathic.

UCF is a state school, so it is managed by the state government, and DeSatan has been active in manipulating the state colleges. That's why I was surprised when they disbanded, because DeSatan would probably defend them (I did not hear his reaction, if he had one). Now I realize they'll just pop up again as The Young MAGAturds or whatever.
