For anyone who wants a truly progressive Democratic Party, Gavin Newsom is bad news.

    Dems are the definition of controlled opposition:

    a false protest movement in which a government or status quo authority controls both sides of a dispute. On one side lies the status quo authority, but on the other side lies those the status quo authority also control. Having the latter provides the appearance of a legitimate opposition, but in reality, it ceases all legitimate opposition. What’s left is just a shell of opposition, one that dishonestly pretends to oppose, but in fact stifles opposition.

    I’m done voting for that. Dems want my vote, they can earn it by running socialists
