Huh...could you give examples of what is not compatible or not comprehensible in California, but not elsewhere?

I'd love to know.




I mean, it is actually comprehensible but you know, California tech workers live in a monopoly money bubble and they think they know something about how the world works. Also they think that their own "culture" and leftist values are relevant to everywhere in the world even if they cant even point places on a map.

I will get banned if i talk more.


Just keep it non-political.

I'd like to know what is non-comprehensible. I am an independent - not "right" of "left", and I think that I can understand both sides. And I think that both sides can understand each other, but they just disagree on what the other side wants to do. But that is not the same as incomprehensible.

So, without getting into a political rant, what do you calmly and objectively, with no wrath attached, do you think is incomprehensible to others who don't live in California. And, by the way, I live in California and 100% guarantee you that there's a wide spectrum of people here. Had one guy a few months ago that I was trying to do business with say that if we meet, he doesn't wear a mask. I've talked to a lot of people in California who don't accept evolution and think that the earth was created 6,000 years ago.

And, you talk a place like Texas, supposedly hard red state, but you go to places like Austin, and Austin voted something like 70% for Biden.... I just looked it up just now, and was right - 71% https://www.politico.com/2020-election/results/texas/

So I think before Texas and Missouri and all the rest of the red states get their hate on about California, they should first go into all their own blue areas. And, pretty much, the blue areas are mostly university towns. The kids. So, all the red states should start putting all their children who are college students at University of Texas or University of Iowa and all the other university towns into gas chambers or whatever they want to do. Start the hate at home, I always say. Fix one's own home. Kill the kids. Even in harder hard-core states like Mississippi, there are a bunch of counties were at 70% Biden. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-elections/mississippi-... Why bother about California? And, of course, there is a boatload of counties in California that voted 70% for Trump https://www.politico.com/2020-election/results/california/

So. What specifically are these things that are incomprehensible to others, that californians do, supposedly. Give me specifics.


Not OP, but the dynamics that quash dissent in these specific areas are still at play even when individuals like you ask for specificity and openness. If your goal is to get at the truth of the matter, you'll probably have better luck discussing with folks 1:1.
