Chris Rufo has been front and center in pushing back against the woke insanity that has swept our nation in recent years. So much so that Florida governor Ron DeSantis appointed him, along with other conservatives, to root out woke in all its racist ‘antiracist’ and divisive, destructive CRT forms at New College in Florida.
In this capacity, Rufo apparently engaged in wrong think in the form of malicious pronouning. Or something.
The Biden administration’s Department of Education opened an investigation into the New College of Florida after it received a complaint last month alleging that the school’s board has created a “hostile” environment for transgender and disabled students and staff.The complaint, received by the DOE’s Office for Civil Rights on Aug. 24, names Board of Trustees member Christopher Rufo, who was appointed to the New College’s board by DeSantis in January.It alleges that Rufo, who is also a Manhattan Institute fellow, targeted specific students, parents, and staff with “sexist and transphobic ridicule.”In one incident, the right-wing activist allegedly “mocked and misgendered” the director of New College’s Office of Outreach and Inclusive Excellence (OOIE), Yoleidy Rosario-Hernandez, after “ze was summarily fired,” according to a copy of the complaint shared by Rufo on his Substack.. . . . In a March post to X, formerly known as Twitter, Rufo shared that his colleague had a preferred pronoun before referring to zir “her” and “she” in the next sentence.“New College of Florida has fired its former DEI director, Yoleidy Rosario-Hernandez (“ze/zir”), after abolishing her department,” Rufo wrote.
Here’s the supposedly offensive (criminal?!) tweet:
Rufo refuses to bend to the Biden thought police, however.
Needless to say, people have thoughts.
