Happy Independence Day, everybody! California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat with national ambitions, has just cut an ad, apparently aiming to lure Floridians to move to California. Before you read on, I really, really recommend that you watch it.
© Provided by Washington ExaminerGavin Newsom is all about 'freedom' — so why are all you idiots leaving his state?
Newsom appears to be concerned that a net 367,000 residents left California last year — most of them for states such as Florida, Idaho, and Texas.
Now, call me old-fashioned, but the Sunshine State's efforts to keep racialist indoctrination out of classrooms doesn't seem like a limit on anyone's "freedom" to me. I am reliably informed that Floridians can still tell their own children that they're inherently evil scumbags because they're white, all without fear of arrest. So on that score, let freedom ring.
As for the inappropriate sexualization of children younger than third grade — something Florida acted to stop, of which Newsom's ad is critical — that doesn't seem like a limit on "freedom" to me. Then again, surely there's still someone out there who values the "freedom" to have public school administrators go behind their backs and try to secretly transition their children to another gender. Unfortunately, some parents went and ruined that freedom for everybody in Florida by suing their school districts, unhappy about efforts to trans their kids behind their backs with their own tax dollars.
Don't these entitled parents make you angry?
If so, California might just be calling your name. "Open up that Golden Gate!"
Of course, the question has to be asked: Florida doesn't have to advertise to get people to move there? Really?
Amazing, isn't it? I'm sure it's amazing to Gavin Newsom.
Last year, there was a net domestic out-migration of 367,000 Californians. Normally, it would take a famine or a city-destroying cataclysm to cause that kind of depopulation. Even New Orleans, half of it under water, lost "only" 240,000 people in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. I have done extensive research and discovered that the only disaster to hit California recently is a decade of one-party Democratic rule.
In fact, in the same year Newsom's California was losing the population equivalent of Cleveland, Ohio, Florida gained 221,000 net residents — the population equivalent of San Bernardino. Florida has been under one-party Republican rule for 24 years now. So I guess people are just naturally attracted to fascism.
I can think of at least one population with whom Newsom's argument for "freedom" will surely resonate: violent criminals. If you're an armed robber, you're a lot less likely to lose your freedom in California. Even hardened, violent criminals are routinely given leniency by woke district attorneys and allowed to roam free. In Los Angeles, they're really serious about Second Amendment freedoms — they won't even hold it against you if you use your gun in a crime! If you are a violent criminal, then I know just the state for you to move to.
As for all the haters and losers who move to Florida? Well, I guess freedom isn't for everyone.
Well you got your invitation. Come join in this fun party. Hollywood will have a new TV Show for the people moving to California - The Biggest Losers.
