mfw people start treating the neo-feudalist who throws trans people under the bus and tried to join the fascists like some savior bc 4chan memes:
As bad as his trans stances are, still miles better than even the absolute best Republican
Yeah but we still have a little over two years until the primary circus starts so I can't fault people for wanting to dream of a future they actually want to live in for the time being
Yeah he will not support trans rights and maybe even erase some rights.
The current republican party is moving rapidly towards extermination camps
I thought Newsom was a Republican. Like a sheet made from the same cloth, but draped over a more progressive shape. He calls himself whatever and pays respects to the left but it's the same kind of creature inhabiting the position.
you just described the Democratic Party
You Americans cannot abide allies or any other type of leftists, no wonder the right ate your lunch and continues to do so. You guys hate everyone. The American left has become so toxic and self isolated
Yeah, who says a leftist can't be on the hard right.
Problem is that anyone even slightly right of you, and you call them hard right. Shit you’ll even call people to the left of you “hard right” just for disagreeing with you on a small issue. No true leftists in the u.s. literally nobody is left enough to anyone else on the left
In this case, he's an imperfect solution to the real problem, which is trump and his fascist cronies. Literally anyone who's not down that road is better.
Is Gavin perfect? Fuck no. Not even a little.
But if it puts us in a better state than we are now, I'll welcome it.
We need to get off this fucked up train the trump era nazis have sent us down before it gets even worse.
And it will.
Trump and his cronies were never the real problem, always a symptom of it. Capitalism is the problem, and Newsom is not going to fix that.
Is he actually helping though? Or just sucking up press oxygen and adding to his own brand? What is the actual benefit of this performance?
The thing that will stop Trump is widespread public resistance. Not likely Newsom’s tweets or whatever is going on right now.
