They’re heal turning towards the right so they can join with Texas to give us the civil war that Alex Garland dared to dream of.
43% of the votes have been counted. That 53% ‘no’ vote represents about 23% of the total expected votes. Broadly speaking, the first votes counted are from small and rural areas, and the last votes counted are from mail-in and urban areas. The first group tends to lean conservative, and the last tends to lean liberal or progressive or whatever. California is frequently pretty dogshit politically, but we aren’t going to know any results until like tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. People are happy to call it for Harris because it’s California, but for actually competitive issues it takes hours if not days. Something like 30% of votes were mail-in this year, and they couldn’t legally open those until the physical polls were closed.
California loves policing as a whole though. The measure to increase punishment for drugs and theft is already called for as a yes, that’s a signal to me.
This screenshot still represents 3 million people voting “no don’t, keep the slavery please”
The gap is widening
San Francisco has also taken a hard shift to the far right. lmao this country is so fucking cooked. US is the headquarter of reactionaries.

I think I underestimated how reactionary Americans are. I dont understand how you can see “prohibit slavery” and then be like, no actually I like that thank you.
Only trans people should be allowed to vote. If you arent doing the pokey, you shouldnt be doing the votey
Its possible it was phrased poorly (intentionally), but considering usians I do think people like slavery unfortunately

Hate to break it to you but those two things are super clear cut examples of how one could prohibit slavery in the prison system.
Wow, if only we had a word for involuntary uncompensated labour enforced by violence.
you should be shot in the face
Carceral slavery is still slavery, you piece of shit. You deserve to be executed by a former felon.
Kay why ess
Greatest evidence that Dems are no different to Conservatives.
Heritage not hate huh

Hostility towards the homeless, poor and downtrodden here has been rising sharply sadly, especially since covid forced more people to the streets.
They would vote to turn every inmate into Soylent Green if they could. The average American loves cruelty.
California honestly makes me fucking vomit. Just awful state.
Sherman should have marched to the other sea as well
