I’m with John Ringo.
Unpopular take:
I really don’t give a shit how many people lose homes or die in CA wildfires.
90% voted for it.
I’ll care when they start prioritizing competence and not all the rest of the commie shit.
Until then, I don’t care.
Eat of it.

Eat of it indeed. Via Ragin’ Dave, who adds:
Just for the record, I agree with this 100%. I do not care how many people lose homes in Los Angeles. Especially in Pacific Palisades, or Malibu, or Santa Monica. Because I’ve lived in LA, I’ve been to those areas, and I know without a single doubt that damn near every single person living there, with a few exceptions here and there, voted for Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. They voted for the people who defunded the fire department. They voted for the people who fired the firefighters who refused to get the jab. They voted for the governor and his cronies who refused to fill the reservoirs. They voted for DEI instead of competence, they voted for Marxism instead of something that actually works, they voted for all of this. They voted for the regulations that prevented the fire base from being cut back. They voted for the empty fire hydrants.
They voted for everything that is now afflicting them.
Yep, that’s about the size of it. Read the rest. I say again: some of us live and learn. Others just live, and never learn.
I’ve said at least 10 times in the last few days, I not only don’t care, I wish the entire state would burn to the ground, then spread to Oregone and Washington.
I know there are a handful that don’t deserve it.
I might give a single damn right about the time these leftist idiots start giving a damn about East Palestine, OH.
dumb question:
like the vote that installed Joe Biden in 2020, how many (un-manufactured) votes did Newsom and Bass actually get?
I agree: there are a lot of drug-addled weirds in that State, but think of all the right-thinking normal people you know out there.
“…how many (un-manufactured) votes did Newsom and Bass actually get?”
Good question. Perhaps the “elections” in commiefornia are closer than they appear.
OTOH, the cities are uniquely bad even among the marxist controlled class of city we have in this country.
There are more Republican voters in CA than any other State except FL and TX.
That being said, the areas mentioned are overwhelmingly Dem Voters this time. No question about it.
I will note that James Woods has a house in the Palisades.
Miraculously, his house was spared while all around him they burned to the ground.
Biblical almost…
My thoughts exactly. I don’t think you can say at the same time that the 2020 Presidential election was stolen (which it 100% absolutely was), and at the same time look at California (and other deep blue places) and their elections and say, “fuck em, they voted for it.” Maybe they did vote for it, and maybe they didn’t. Democrat electoral fraud wasn’t invented in 2020 – they have been perfecting it for a long time.
I would be far more empathetic toward the plight of CA, if there had been an equal outpouring of gov. largesse toward WNC.
Since there wasn’t, and there still isn’t, I guess those Left Coast folks are getting what they paid for… Damn shame, really.
“Unpopular” take???
Get the fuck out of here.
Too pussified by an order or magnitude.
But more people are starting to “get it”.
I repeat what I said in my post on the topic:
If I were governor for a day, the tankers would be dropping napalm and aviation gasoline, and trying to burn even more of the communist pigs out, once and for all.
I’d even bus homeless people and Democommunists from other areas into the hot zones while the conflagrations raged out of control.

Anything less than that is half-assed apathy.
What’s needed is to let der flammen do some by-God werfing.

“If I were governor for a day, the tankers would be dropping napalm and aviation gasoline…”
Aesop has read my mind 🙂
Heh. Lord love ya, Aesop, you’re always handy with a solid, straight-up No Shitter, as the military types call it. 😀
I just calls ’em like I sees ’em.
“Burn it! Burn it all!” – Col. Kiley, The Battle Of The Bulge
Heh. Perfectly put as usual, Ase. 😀 Glad to know you’re okay, at least.
I have no idea why anyone would start a rumor that I’d been spotted driving around the area every night with a flare gun and a bucket of flares.
For the record, I have never been spotted. 😉
Didn’t read the rest because I to find it hard to have sympathy for those who voted for it or those who stayed there.
Be a bigger man, BCCL.
Donate a big fat bag of rubber dildos to the Red Cross, and suggest they can give it to Any Victim from the Palisades Fire.
To eat.
