God damnit, stop making me like you, Newsom. I really don't want you to be president of Greater Pacifica.

That shouldn't inspire any appreciation, the rhetorical value of liberal clapbacks is pretty much nil.

It's just crazy that one is doing it at all

In the interest of clarity, I don't think that Johnson quite qualifies as a hypocrite, since a hypocrite has to have something at least resembling principles, and Johnson appears to have nothing of the sort.

He appears to be an essentially complete, full-time toady, ready and willing and even eager to mouth whatever he thinks will please whoever he's desperate to please at the moment. I don't think he's ever had a thought or opinion of his own in his entire life.

Not that that's any better or anything - just an observation.

How much would you bet that that doesn't apply to his wife, if you know what I mean?

[-] Localhorst86@feddit.org 6 points 1 year ago

I don't think he cares about pleasing his wife.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

He probably isn't interested in his wife.

I like that the Governor of the 4th largest economy in the world is consistently telling frumpy and his merry band of idiots where to go. When Cali starts secession inquiries, frumpy's head's gonna explode.

From an international perspective it's hard to really understand what the rest of the US is even for, when California seems to do all the things. It's not as if people visit the US to visit the plains of Wyoming

the plains of Wyoming

thats where Yellowstone National Park is, and people do flock to that. But I get what you are saying

[-] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well, there are flatlands in WY and they are boring AF. The only excitement is from all the white supremacists and Nazis who live there.

[-] syreus@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

New York and Florida both have more international tourism. California is third followed by Nevada and Texas.

[-] BMW_stick@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

I guess in the divorce we'll get Cali, NY, Nevada, Illinois, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Washington (State), Oregon, Minnesota, Wisconsin and maybe Georgia (probably not, though). They get the Bible belt, the lower East Coast, Delaware and Texas.

Religion is the greatest grift on society ever made. To believe it actually gives you morals and ethics has continually been disproven.

Welp, bed time for me.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Say what you will about Newsom, he's a Democrat striking back by talking plainly. Maybe some Democrats will find their fucking unused spines can be used to stand up.

LOL, nah. Anyone of liberal bent is determined to strike the governor down for his sins. "Not good enough!", they scream as they're hauled off to the trains, unarmed, as they wished to be. Good luck you fucking pansies! (Is "pansy" still politically correct? Or did I offend .0235% of the population?)

[-] three@lemmy.zip 39 points 1 year ago

First paragraph was good. Could have done without the straw man and annoying verbiage of the second.

[-] LeninsOvaries@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, attacking antifascists isn't what liberals do, it's what us socialists do. Anarkiddies will never understand that purity testing antifascists is a legitimate leftist position.

[-] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

For sale: Democrat spine. Never used.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Oh man, get ready for the twitter beef of the century!

[-] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I hate it when people go soft on that wacko religious theocrat freak Johnson
