    No they’re not.

    Anyone using Newsom as an excuse to not vote against fascism is nowhere on the left. Not a liberal, not a leftist, not a progressive.

    Newsom signed a bill that cut a lot of services to address the deficit. It didn’t “target” any one group, and anyone who says it did is a right-wing agitator.

    Anyone who pretends Newsom is a deal-breaker was never, EVER going to vote blue regardless.

      When we say “Newsom backstabbed homeless people” we’re talking more about the making homelessness illegal part.

      It didn’t “target” any one group, and anyone who says it did is a right-wing agitator.

      “Everyone I don’t like is MAGA” isn’t how you make coalitions if you actually care about that (which I doubt). Well too bad, because the very act of cutting services is targeting the state’s most vulnerable.

      Anyone who pretends Newsom is a deal-breaker was never, EVER going to vote blue regardless.

      Tinfoil hat much?

      Anyone for whom newsom is acceptable would vote for trump over any progressive. Without hesitation.
