Tallahassee, of course. I'm sure some judge-shopping was done for this result.

As for Mark Walker:

“Our professors are critical to a healthy democracy, and the State of Florida’s decision to choose which viewpoints are worthy of illumination and which must remain in the shadows has implications for us all,” Walker wrote. “If our ‘priests of democracy’ are not allowed to shed light on challenging ideas, then democracy will die in darkness.

In his lengthy ruling, Walker quoted from George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984,” writing “‘It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen,’ and the powers in charge of Florida’s public university system have declared the State has unfettered authority to muzzle its professors in the name of ‘freedom.’”

Priests of Democracy? Maybe Walker is more in need of a psychiatrist rather than an appeal.

Wow. I’m a little disappointed: he squeezed so many leftist catch phrases in his opinion. Couldn’t he have gotten a reference to the Handmaid’s Tale in, too? Next time
