Genuine criminals that through their negligence and/or ignorance are making decisions that negatively impact other peoples lives to the point of ruin. At this point you have no excuse anymore. The information is out there, history lessons are available everywhere, yet people are still making decisions to support disastrous and hypocritical Dem policies. Drunk on their own smugness, they still get into the voting booth and crash the economy with no survivors. Fucking assholes.
Sorry, Im not sure what im getting at with this post but Ive been seeing a lot of "Stop the Recall" (CA Governor Gavin Newsom) signs lately and its been really getting on my nerves. Nobody who pays even the slightest amount of attention should be defending Newsom, so they're either not paying attention or they're just self-centered scum who dont care what happens to others. Either way I hate them
The local news is starting to pump 'Look how much the recall is costing you!' stories and other things attempting to make the argument that the recall is a pointless waste of money.
I have family (not all of them) who support this guy, but it is totally tribal. The 'noble centrist' I know isn't for Newsom, he's against Trump and Hicks and The South and the stereotype he's bought into that the right is full of dangerous anti-vaxxers who don't take the virus seriously, and.. ..agh, it's tiring. He equates them with 'Frat Bros' who are the deepest purveyors of sin in his worldview, for some reason. This justifies supporting people he doesn't like as a twisted sort of self defense.
He's backed himself into a corner where he's attempted to argue people exercising their freedom of choice with masks and vaccines impedes on other's people right to life, therefore these terrible people need to be fined and imprisoned and he's held that line for over a year. He tells me the real estate market in our area in southern California will explode in value in five years or less, and yet in the same breath worry about the 'Next Variant'. The inflation blindspot is significant, but then he reads the economist so I'm not surprised.
He's been quiet lately, though. I think he's ashamed or feeling a bit lost and not knowing where to turn, and there's more people out there then it first seems. The only thing he's told me recently about politics is that 'all politicians suck!'. I think his faction of people turning bitter and/or apathetic is part of why the polls for the recall are what they are - the left's hysterics are losing steam among 'the middle'. IE: The soft leftists who will never call themselves that and claim they're moderates.
