You failed in your own state, you'll fail the country and you'll lose the house and senate almost as quickly as you got it.

I live in Cali. These idiots will drive the country into the ground and drug addicts and homeless will rule the streets at night like they do here.

My state was swept up by a red wave, and the Democrats here are pretty much Republicans as well.

It's great.

Well, you got two out of three in the heading...

You know the California has such a big Population it's hard to keep track of, right?

uhm, no, population size has nothing to do with the point he is trying to make. Come up with something better.

No, seriously, because of the Population amount, housing in California is the most expensive out of almost anywhere in the States, which is why so many people are leaving the state. Because it's so expensive, many people live in Poverty because they don't have enough money to even pay and rent for an Apartment that costs as much as a three-story House in North Carolina. Not only that, but since most of these people live in the much-more expensive City area, it's even harder to pay.

it is expensive because supply and demand, a demand made from illegals they keep letting in. I seen it for myself, families of 10 living in a garage. They go by the joke of human roaches, because when you see one outside there are forty living in that apartment. The better question is why the governors let that happen? Why people in California keep voting Democrats? They are just doing it to themselves. Yet population has nothing to do with it, you are just making excuses for the bad ruling democratic party that allows for corruption to happen at the expense of the citizens. This cancer now is spreading nation wide.

I won't deny the fact that every Governor Cali has had since the 1980's, Republican or Democrat, sucked, but in the past (Republican-Governed California), California has tried to push to stop the Illegals they allow in, but to no response from the (Republican) Government. So it's a stalemate.

Also, calling Leftism a Cancer is like calling Biden a Fraud. It's correct, in some areas.

cancer is spreading bro....

But they don't...?

Well, at least most don't.

I agree with that by a long shot.
I really like saying long shot.

california has had republican governors in the past. don't pretend they tried to solve it either

Lol I keep thinking you’re Octavia Melody with that icon. So I have to look at your name now.😂

You get it when you hit 6 million points.

eyyy refusal to take responsibility. my point here is that democrats & republicans are one in the same

No, the Democrats and Republicans USED TO be the same until the Democrats took a hard turn down the socialist/communist path and just came unglued.

I'll give them this, though ... At least they aren't lying about who they are and what they want anymore. Can't say the same thing about the Republicans.

deflecting is also what happens when someone compares the capitol attack to the BLM riots.

"No, the Democrats and Republicans USED TO be the same until the Democrats took a hard turn down the socialist/communist path and just came unglued"

also called being tired of the establishment democrats' shit. the establishment are still the common enemy of the people.

"I'll give them this, though ... At least they aren't lying about who they are and what they want anymore"

eyyy promises made, promises kept

"Can't say the same thing about the Republicans."

the irony is that for a party that hates china, the attack on the capitol will be responsible for why china has no democracy for another few decades. so much for hong kong.

How is the attack on the capitol in any way relevant to China?

I'm not trying to be rude, I'm genuinely curious as to how those two threads of life intersect.

a democratic election led to this attack. china will use it against chinese citizens because they are an anti-democratic nation, and hate the united states. they will use the capitol attack as an excuse to prevent their citizens from choosing their leaders, thus enabling full dictatorship

There are a couple of factual and logical errors with that statement.

- A democratic election did not lead to this riot. Anger at it did, but there's a technical difference; Our Constitution, the basis of our democracy, does not allow for rioting. It blatantly violates the 1st Amendment. Therefore these rioters were in fact anarchists acting outside the Constitution, and therefore this attack cannot be used as an excuse for suppressing democracy, because even democracy cannot allow anarchy.

- China has been a dictatorship since it was an empire. "President" Xi and his CCP cronies are already 100% in charge. This riot will have 0% bearing on their situation. Remember Tiananmen square? They've dealt with far worse than we ever have in this country.

"A democratic election did not lead to this riot. Anger at it did, but there's a technical difference"

k whatever. china's still going to demonize democracy, especially since displaying that type of anger will instill fear in people

"Therefore these rioters were in fact anarchists acting outside the Constitution"

technically a good portion of them were fascists who didn't know any better, but sure. idk what this has to do with china. xi will still use the images to scare people, regardless of what facts and logic any imgflip user can come up with.

"This riot will have 0% bearing on their situation"

apart from discourage potential revolts/revolutions

The riots won't discourage revolutions. Bootheels of PLA infantry have already done that for decades. Xi won't use these images to scare people, because they already remember Tiananmen Square. Chinese citizens won't see these images and think, "Oh, democracy is scary!". They'll think, "Man, I wish my government was tolerant enough to allow people to act out against it without immediate fear of execution or imprisonment for life.".

"Xi won't use these images to scare people, because they already remember Tiananmen Square"

Tiananmen square isn't the same as showcasing an image from a democratic country and displaying it as a flaw. it's showcasing an image of already established CCP power

"They'll think, "Man, I wish my government was tolerant enough to allow people to act out against it without immediate fear of execution or imprisonment for life.""

ahh hahaha haha hahaha oh wait you're serious.

the majority of people who will see this attack won't think that. and if they do, authorities will make sure they won't.

"deflecting is also what happens when someone compares the capitol attack to the BLM riots."

I riot is a riot. If you destroy property, beat people senseless, and destroy your city, it doesn't matter what the supposed cause is, it's wrong.

"the irony is that for a party that hates china, the attack on the capitol will be responsible for why china has no democracy for another few decades. so much for hong kong."

The Republicans don't hate china. The swampy ones don't, anyway. There are a few good Republicans and even fewer good Democrats left. But they get all but thrown out of their party.

"it doesn't matter what the supposed cause is, it's wrong."

what if a riot started because a top political official was a pedophile and the court decided him not guilty because he had OJ Simpson's lawyer?

"The swampy ones don't, anyway"

aight. the people who attacked the capitol, however, do hate china. no secret. it's going to be disappointing when footage of their deed is showcased to the people of china & hong kong while xi jinping tells them "this is what democracy is."

You take 1 image this one image of california, keep using it, and say this is all in california. I live in california and have never seen scenarios like this.
