Kind of agree, I guess. California is NOT a homogeneous state, Southern CA has lots of military people who are pretty conservative, and inland CA is also pretty conservative.

The coast of CA north of Santa Barbara is very liberal though.

People have no idea how small of a % of CA is actually like this. I mean don't get me wrong- that's exactly where I live, and I can't say it's untrue- but geographically like NO ONE would say that outside of like 4% of California.

For the record I have definitely internally mocked people for getting the wrong kale IRL, don't get the one that's all hard to massage... gently caress... that's gonna make a bad salad :(

The PNW combined with CA is an amazing combination of economics, natural beauty, access to resources and amazing agriculture, etc. it doesn't take a loving mastermind to conclude that the ingredients are there for a good country or whatever (not that I am advocating for this by the way, yet here it is, objectively true).

I have no idea why you are bring racism into it, that was weird man.

You have serious problems and should seek help.

CA is the powerhouse agricultural state, but it doesn't have water. The PNW has water, and is really pretty. Both are situated on the ocean. Resources aplenty.

*I did not advocate, at any time* that they should be a country, only that it would be a powerful country, which it obviously and objectively would.

I'm honestly not sure how to address your concerns at this point, sorry. Go ahead and take the last word. I'm going to the beach to watch the sunset.

While you are at the beach, coalition forces assist the rest of the US in regaining control of your threadbare government and comparably feeble military organization. You have now returned to the fold, and you will pay higher taxes for your attempted secession. The leaders of your dumb coup will be imprisoned for life so they may be ridiculed for the numbskulls they are.

Thankfully, this was just a simulated scenario.

Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere.

Being liberal doesn't make you uptight. Being rich makes you uptight, because you know you'll probably die on a lamppost.

no, because you're talking about an entire state which has millions upon millions of people in whatever vague category you want to pick. the chances of the "average liberal" being "insanely uptight" is certainly wrong simply by definition, unless it is you who are uptight about people with "average" views in X or X vague huge ideology. protip, most people dont really care very much at all about almost anything if you really pressed them about it

anyway im just calling you an rear end in a top hat because you are probably so brainwashed by what appears to be, in this case, conservatism you actually view an average californian liberal as "uptight" (a vague way for a internally confused person to say "wrong"). also dont confuse this with someone defending liberals, this applies in exactly the same way as a hardcore liberal who views all conservatives in an entire state as "backwards", I am truly and simply calling you out as an idiot OP. but have a nice day otherwise

What the gently caress is wrong with you? You can tell that a person hates California and has never been there when they try to perpetuate the "white power" myth. A decade ago I kept on hearing about "skin heads in Southern California" from idiot New Englanders but there were none. Maybe people got confused over The Offspring and Social D fans.

Similarly in the Bay Area, PNW I have never seen white power bullshit. It would be attacked immediately by the social action groups in the Bay Area. Now I can't speak for the rest of the state because California is huge, has large rural areas and lots of weird communities tucked away in pockets of geography. It wouldn't suprise me if there are communities here in the Sierras equivalent to Appalachia in politics and behavior.
