  • Don’t forget that he vetoed unemployment pay for striking workers, vetoed decriminalization of psychedelics (in other words, the aspiring future leader of “my body my choice” party wants to put people in prison for what they do with their bodies), and frequently flaunted COVID restrictions which he put in place.

    He also did nothing about corporations stealing (and now ruining) the legal cannabis industry. Voters who voted to pass cannabis legalization did so under the context of an acreage cap: no corporation could own more than… 2 acres? I don’t know the exact number off the top of my head, but the idea was, it’s small enough to keep corporations from dominating but big enough to allow them decent operating room.

    Lawmakers went behind the electorate’s back and removed the acreage cap. Newsom did nothing, and was buddy-buddy with corporate cannabis people like Big Mike, so why would he? This resulted in corporate cannabis, including professional boof cultivators like Glass House Farms (owned by a MAGA-supporting cop), dominating the legal industry. Their weed is garbage, which is why ~75% of cannabis sales in California occur in the legacy market (“illegal” under bullshit laws that everyone should ignore).

    He also hosts conservative shitstains on his podcast, though if he was actually ideologically righteous, I could potentially excuse that as genuine outreach. But he’s not, so I don’t.

    He was doing homeless sweeps and talking about his undying support for Pissrael when Republicans were on the up-trend. Now everyone hates Republicans, so suddenly Newsom is refusing money from AIPAC and doesn’t talk so much about the problem of having to witness poors in the street. He stands for nothing but his own gain.

    Here’s a photo op he did of him throwing away, potentially, the only worldly possessions of homeless people. He presumably retreated to his Napa Valley winery after this. Fucking parasite.
