A phrase born of the fact that Florida’s Governor, Ron DeFlatus, has suggested that the state’s educational curriculum include material on “the benefits of being a slave” so that whitefolk don’t wind up stewing in their own guilt over slaveholding ancestors, thereby garnering him some white votes since there are so many that would vote for such an asshole with this point of view.
The “anti-woke” Florida Governor knows that he can garner strong support from white supremacists by virtue of his ridiculous reinvention of history and this illustrates the benefits of being an asshole in this part of the country.
