He’s not even making most of those responses to Trump. His social media manager is doing it. He’s still just another Howard Schultz. “I like the idea of equality as long as rich people don’t have to reduce the rate at which they become richer.”

OK Newsom, you’ve lost me. I enjoyed your chaotic responses to the drumpf but you’ve officially lost me.

Realize, this has always been him. He is NOT a liberal. He is a conservative who calls himself a democrat.
Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 months ago
That’s called a liberal.

Government-mandated age verification stuff on private hardware is basically the opposite of liberal though
Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Those who call themselves liberal have been doing shit like this for so long that this rank hypocrisy is part of what it means to be liberal.
If liberals don’t like it, they should have had some integrity instead of ridiculing the concept as a “purity test.”

I wouldn’t even say conservative, social fascist who hates poor and trans people.
Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yeah, a liberal.
buddascrayon@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Look up the word neo-liberal. Cause that is what you mean. Continually replying “Yeah, a liberal.”, you sound like a moron.

Are people finally ignoring his paid PR xitter team? It was annoying when my family bought into that trick. Newsome was always a POS.

Yup, a liberal.

He is still overwhelmingly liberal and progressive. Calling him conservative is insane.

He is basically as conservative as you can be here in California while holding a state wide elected position and even that may not be true anymore with how things have shifted since the last governor election. Point is he is generally on the more conservative end of Californian politics, hell I know some Schwarzenegger style conservatives who are more progressive than him.

If only all those agents hadn’t told us to not use the political compass, we might be less lost now. :3

Yup.
Welcome to newspeak, USA-flavor.
Still drinking hair of the dog to nurse the McCarthyian redscare hangover.
Layers deep into the newspeak. Liberal, conservative, democrat… all these terms already many contortions and inversions distanced from original meaning. Soon, even “him”, “he” and “himself” too. Then even “is” and “not”, and then the CIA’s work will be done.

He used to be married to the woman that also used to be Trump Jr.’s fiancé.
