California is a shockingly purple state, tbh. The cities just happen to have high enough density to outweigh the rest. Once you leave them, things get really red really quick. It’s basically like Texas, just favouring the other side.
That’s literally every state, and that’s because cities are where the people are, and people vote, not land. For instance, the only reason Georgia has Democratic senators is because of Atlanta.
Usually, the cities in a state have a LOT more people than all the rural regions combined, so that’s where the votes are concentrated. Simple as that.
Anyone that behaves like a creature from a Germanic folk tale will be categorized as one. Humanity is a label that must be demonstrated and earned.
Do you know what else comes from the fascist playbook? Every leftist term imaginable, because the movement is fundamentally weaponized bad faith. As with the paradox of tolerance, do not grant that benefit to those who would not grant it to others. Neoliberal language policing helps nobody.

For sure, people just seem to think if someone’s from California, they must be a bleeding heart liberal, when that’s very much not the case.
Because people vote, not land. But yes, California is full of deplorable, hateful, subhuman Republicans once you get outside the major metro areas.

Thank goodness they don’t have any deplorables in Los Angeles or San Francisco.
Calling your political opponents subhuman comes from the fascist playbook. I wouldn’t go there.
