the worst part of this entire fascist regime is that people like gavin newsom can act like a good guy
The bar is low. Really low.
god damnit, I hate it that one of the most milquetoast neoliberals of our time hits upon an A+ strategy. Whatever staffer in his office had that idea deserves a raise. If it was his own idea, I'd be shocked.
Id like to take credit for it myself but its always been there available to anyone. Democrats just cannot believe the American people are this stupid they need to spell it out. Its a fine way to be in your interpersonal life but politics is too devoid of actual measured discourse you will only lose if you don't play for keeps.
This is also why every democrat who isn't spearheading something like Newsom is doing needs to go too. They are artifacts of a different age and the debasememt of society will only get worse. We need innovators and risk takers until a real treaty is signed.
He needs to keep doing it
He literally needs to put on the makeup. The clown meme will save America. We beat deflection with reflection. On the playground rubber and glue is your only defense.
Sticks and stones come next.
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:
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
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
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.
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.
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.
Can we please have the necessary wealth redistribution that's a requirement to fix the vast majority of problems?
No? We can watch the two most powerful men in the world talk like angry babies at each other?
Ok...
Maybe next year, if we don't boil alive
Too bad it's fash on fash politics. Newsom is total garbage. Anti-trans, Anti-housing, Anti-transit, Pro-capital, Steve Bannon homie...
Just another less than worthless lib. The reason we have Trump.
he's doing a good job cosplaying a leftist to gather support.
