Like, I fucking wish they were. As a California (and especially a Bay Area) resident, we wouldn’t have to deal with the bullshitery of living under sky-high costs as tech billionaires and landleeches have the privilege to simply walk all over us. Like, California is as much a part of the Capitalist American country as Mississippi… in fact maybe even more so with the presence of Silicon Valley and all the companies stationed over there. Along with this, a communist California would not allow themselves to become such a car-centric hellhole that it is. Yet, no matter how much the Californian government will suck up to lobbyists and billionaires, they will still be called communists for doing the absolute bare minimum for women’s and LGBT+ rights and for having restrictive gun laws (which was actually implemented by none other than their messiah, Ronald Reagan out of the fear of the Black Panthers).
Like, I want to live inside their fantasy of a communist California. It would do away with so much of the bullshitery that I have to deal with living here.
For real, I was privileged to grow up right near one of the oldest of the old growth forests in the world and it is quite literally a magical place.
Do you mind telling us what that forest was?
Henry Cowell Redwoods state park. Also check out Fall Creek I'm at work but I can find pics when I get home. Especially check out the fall creek lime kilns.
