Nor does he realize that what he’s proposing in paragraph two will work against his goal in paragraph one.

That doesn't matter. Californians have more teeth than Alabama folk so therefore Newsom is a competent and smart political leader. Nothing else needs to be discussed or questioned

+more lifespan, less infant mortality, less maternal mortality, more education, better health, less depression.

and attracting young highly educated people while losing older less well educated folks

Agreed. Therefore there is no point in looking into any policy failures that may have led to the city of Los Angeles being burned to the ground

Look at my PhD on the wall
 
Man you guys gotta stop shoving his nose in it.

It’s the last day of deer season, I’m trying to stay quiet lol
 
Look at this headline. This Marxist DEI crap is a disease

They are mad that some people's homes may not be destroyed

Not for Newsom directly because he is an absolute ****-weasel, but it can both be true that California’s policies have made things better for its citizens in many ways compared to their neighbors in other states, and that they failed to effectively manage other aspects of the state, including wildfire prevention.

One major conservative critique of California and progressive governance in general that I think is very strong is how ****ing long it takes to do things, and I think it’s worth really re-evaluating how much we need to balance the needs of certain ecosystems against human survival if they aren’t presently allocating resources effectively to mitigate fire control. California can be both right and wrong in different ways. But we’ve apparently moved past nuance and fact-finding when it comes to evaluating the performance of a government.

Instead we’ll spend the next month arguing over trivial **** so we can make the other side look entirely incompetent in every regard instead of digging into solving the root cause. The left will say it doesn’t matter that projects took too long to complete, and the right will say it doesn’t matter that Southern California was especially dry and hot this season. We’ll all forget about the identity of the LA Fire Department Chief by next month when it becomes clear that dry land + strong winds = fires that you could have hundreds of white male firefighters working to contain to no avail. We’ll forget that Donald Trump said mean things once he’s sworn in and continues the eventual taxpayer-funded federal rebuild of Los Angeles’ wealthiest communities. But nobody will admit fault or admit they latched onto a falsehood, and the next time a disaster occurs we’ll just jump back down these two rabbit holes. What a wonderful world.
 
The ironic thing about California's obsession with DEI, is it is being held back so much to the let the rest of the country catch up.

Imagine California with Florida's government. No other state would stand a chance!

So thanks for equity, California!

As much as I think you get a lot of **** badly wrong, I do at least appreciate and respect the fact that you are willing to engage on the issue at hand, and not obsessively deflect and redirect like a fraudulent academic is required to do

Where you have consistently stepped up to debate on what went right/wrong/out of our hands, other leftists have run away, or worse, spent tireless energy on dental records of the south

I guess just not enough people listened to mayor Bass. If they did, she would have had enough water for the obese lesbians to fight the fire

more water + fewer obese lebians

a pretty good formula if you ask me
 
Ron DeSantis plainly said about looters... "if you loot, we shoot"

There was no misunderstanding. There were no issues

In California, you can break into the vice president's home and get released bc not enough evidence that you were trying to steal.

Yeah. Permitting and NIMBYism and YIMBYism are important issues. I'm pleased to see there are threads on these boards discussing these very issues. Sadly, they petered out after a very small number of posts. I just think we have to expect that folks will be more interested in the sexual identity of the fire chief. Links to a couple of threads on permitting:
