You’d think the GOP would bend with the wind a bit, given how the general climate of corporate lobbying has been so pleasant for them otherwise.

An Orlando tourism board misspelling “Orlando” in their own infographic is Maximum Florida. You can’t make this stuff up.

This law is so badly written that there is literally no way to comply with it.

I can only hope that this leads to Apple, Facebook, Twitter, etc all opening their own theme parks to circumvent the law.
Just something tiny. “Twitter Land” Like buy a shed from Home Depot and put in framed printouts of famous tweets and charge a buck to walk through it.

“Twitterists” Theme Park or die laughing? (Bishi mascot enthusiastic consent kiosks?)
“Tweetopia” “Tweeted Equity Entertainment Equity Theatre”
“Twittering Pulse” “Twee Bits Entertainment Cover Lines” …halp I’m growing gaiters.

Of course it is being challenged. Everyone knew it would, including the people who passed it. This isn’t about making new law. It’s about pandering to the base. Pass the law. If it doesn’t get challenged, great. If it does get challenged, say “I was trying to look out for good patriotic Republicans but those damn leftist commie judges got in the way”.
It’s win-win for them. Either way it achieves its actual intended purpose of making the lawmakers who pass it look like good Republican warriors fighting the good fight against the left coast.

That is, in fact, the definition referred to in the new law:
470 The term does not include any information service, system,
471 Internet search engine, or access software provider operated by
472 a company that owns and operates a theme park or entertainment
473 complex as defined in s. 509.013
As goofy as this new law is, DeSantis’s example is not terrible: why is Twitter still giving a platform for hate speech by other tinpot dictators?
