My mom thinks Gavin Newsom is a leftist. I think he is a centrist. Who is more correct?

Actually I am right-wing. I've noticed that many conservatives go by the term "centrist", "moderate", "independent", or "libertarian" as a cover-up against cancel culture.

[ronaldo75]

He's absolutely a leftist and a modern socialist. This nonsense the modern left is developing today where every failed leftist is called a centrist or liberal is just a cope. Own your failures. Newsom is not a centrist and he's not a liberal, the man is a modern incarnation of what leftism has become. Dont try to hide from it.

[InsecureLivesMatter]

I am literally a right winger and there are hardly any left wing politicians in the US if at all.

If you think he is a centrist you must be a real nut.

[InsecureLivesMatter]

For some reason your views mixed with your username reminds me of a Buick Roadmaster from the 1990s, not even with the 5.7L but with the 5.0L engine.

I hav ealways been a man of the road. I remember the Buick Roadmaster.

Thanks for the MHO😎

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Yup!

Your mom is going by what the democratic party used to be. In that sense, yes, he is a leftist. You're going by what it has become, so, yes, in that sense he is a centrist, that leans left. Your mom is right to most common sense Americans.

He supports infanticide up to a year after birth and wants to replace all vehicles with EV, proven unsupportable with their infrastructure. Leftist.

If you think he’s a centrist you need to be institutionalized

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Except I am rightwing and conservative, and saying this.

[Pterodon]

No you’re not

[InsecureLivesMatter]

R*t*rd

American economy is unethically capitalistic (and I'm not even against the idea of capitalism). It's still a place of anti-"societal taboos" and greedy CEOs/pro-CRT professors.

Then move to China. You’ll be happier there

[InsecureLivesMatter]

You seem good at parties. LOL

[InsecureLivesMatter]

I have traveled 31 countries in the world, China and even Saudi Arabia included. I know what the world is like, and China and even Russia aren't as bad as the western media presents it as.

[Pterodon]

I’ve been around the world too. Yeah they are

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Every country's government has some kind of oppression, even if it is the freest one or happiest in the world.

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Question for non-Americans only: Why do Americans genuinely believe their country is the only "free" one in the world? ↗

[Pterodon]

We can own guns and it’s a constitutional right

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Actually not everyone can. Not the mentally disabled.

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Today, 99% of the Constitution are not followed, and 99% of the US government and education system do not follow the Constitution. The Constitution has not been updated since 1992.

[Pterodon]

Only if you’ve been declared mentally deficient which can only be done by a judge. Name another country that has guns as a right

[WindAtMyBack]

He's EXTREME left. Only someone completely out in lala land would call him a centrist.

[Anonymous]

He's a libtard.

[Jerre]

I think he is a Leftist

[Jerre]

And an asshole!
