Like, this is in no way a defense of noted shithead Gavin Newsom, but it actually is possible to be way worse then him. I don't like the state or the people in it any more then anyone else in the thread, but I still prefer a governor who is 'merely' callously indifferent to human life to one who goes full Rick Snyder and actively tries to slaughter as many of their citizens as they can get away with.

Big companies are going to push for any candidate they want to win. Tech is mad at Brown and Newsom over all sorts of things. The next governor is going to proclaim to be a proud icon of rainbow capitalism or just plain old capitalism.

The Democrats aren’t going to push for a leftist. Period.

Reminder that 2020 prop results were absolutely disasterous and embarrassing all around for the state. just absolute dog-poo poo awfulness.

- a prop that guts worker rights (destroying AB3) and enshrining neo feudal gig "independent contractor" work passed 70/30 bc all the dipshit whites want their $6 uber ride to the latest hip-upscale farm2table bar to slam down $20 shots of a gin n tonic. very epic win for JOBS!! and FREEDOM!!

- a prop that would have let voters 17 years old vote in the primary if they turned 18 by the general election went down in flames 45/55 because gently caress young people. good gently caress zoomers. 17 years SHOULD NOT VOTE. infact we should remove voting rights for anyone under 65, they clearly dont know whats good for them

- a prop that did a very lite repeal of prop 13 tax freeze only for commercial property that would mostly affect the likes of disneyland and fund schools failed 48/52 because we love 1960 tax rates on trillions of dollars of property. Corporate land owners preserving their god-ordained 1960s tax rate of $1 a year. they worked hard for those locked in tax rates. disney would have to RAISE ticket prices if they had to pay their real value! NO GOOD!

- a prop that would let baby bombers move their 1960 tax-rate house to anywhere in state giving a big handout to real estate agents passed 60/40. big win for all hard working baby bombers protecting their tax value to move anywhere they want! and real estate agents earning a fat commission that they worked hard for

- a prop that would have done a very minor repeal of rent control restrictions (Costa-Hawkins) that would have let cities enact more stricter rent control (if they wanted!) went down in flames 40/60. landlords defeated evil rent controls trying to take away their hard earned money! rents are greedy parasites anyways good gently caress renters.

- a prop to cut down on for-profit dialysis clinic vileness and make them more safe went down in flames 35/65 like lmao. Devita Dialysis Corporate preserving their shareholder profit dividend payouts. regulations BAD for consumer, bad for profit! very good win here!

- congress and the governor successfully signed a bill into law that abolished cash bail and requiredthat all misdemeanor peoples immediately released (SB10) and would have made a massive boost to poor poc people. Immediately after big parasitic bail money said NO and spent $$$ punting it to the ballot imitative to get flamed out 45/55. bad no good legislature tried to abolish cash bail, smarmy gavin even signed it into law, but we said NO! bail bonds industry preserving cash bail for another decade and keeping those evil dirty urban feral criminals locked off and out of the suburbs. if they didnt want to pay bail they shouldnt have done a crime! SAFE STREETS NOW. Californians love when big money destroys laws they don't like because it puts those darned urban ferals in their place -signed "a leftist".


that was just in 2020 alone hahahahaha

the previous a year a bill that would have capped prescription drug prices to the max taht the Office of VA charges went down in flames 30/70, not even loving close we love our for-profit health care industry folks. best in the world.

not to mention prop 8 lmao. embarrassing ya'll. this state is dumb as rocks

CA is example #1 of the dems being totally unable to govern. they've had total control of the state for 10 yeras and havent fixed a single one of its many many crises. in fact they've all gotten worse. makes me loving sick to see my home state doing so horribly. I'm just glad witnessing it turned me into a communist rather than some dip poo poo right winger

correct. although to be fair half the (D)s are just republicans that realize the (R) logo is persona-non-grata like Steven Glazer whose a massively giant piece of poo poo. a whole lot of (D)'s that are basically racist white-flight suburban fygmy given flesh, like contra costa county and most of socal region and all that fun stuff

I heard another take on the dialysis one was that it was a push to raise the price of dialysis (forcing clinics to always have a doctor on hand)
