In the People's Republic of California... with uber liberal Gavin Newsom as the governor (and perhaps soon to be your President)... we have yet another, still another example of Liberal hypocrisy.

ONE VIEW: Newson is on a RANT against Walgreen's. This because that drug store chain announced that it would abide by the laws in states that regulate the distribution of "the abortion pill." Walgreen's will follow state law. It stressed that it is NOT indicating that it agrees with those laws, only that it has no legal option but to abide by them. In other states, it will continue to distribute the drug as before. Newsom is on a RANT repudiating that! The State of Calfornia will no longer do any business with the company, citizens are called on to do the same. "Walgreens should do the right thing!" Obviously, we should do "the right thing" RATHER THAN obey state laws. He's going on and on about that now. One of his current rants.

OPPOSITE VIEW: Newson is suing the City of Huntington Beach. There is a state law here that anyone can demolmish a single house on any lot anywhere and replace it with up to four homes, likely condos (only one of which needs to have any parking). The city CANNOT prevent or regulate this, the view of neighbors is not to be considered, the city cannot hinder this. Well.... the City of Huntington Beach (in Orange County) is hindering this, not by actually saying "no" but by not issuing the needed permits, it's "sitting on the required permits." So, Newsom is suing. He's on a RANT against the city for violating state law. "No one has the power to just ignore the law!" "It doesn't matter whether one agrees with the law, the law is the law!"

The liberal press (the press here is just the mouth of the liberal wing of the Democrat Party) has no problem reporting both of these rants.... I guess hoping no one sees the hypocrisy. And it seems they're right.


Don't laugh. What happens in California doesn't stay in California. What happens here is just a more obvious look at Liberalism and the Democrat Party existing also where you live.

That appears to be the case, all right.

Although California is the "proving ground" for every new Tradphobic* initiative, we're dealing with a national epidemic.

tradphobia

noun

  1. Fear or hatred of traditional social norms and people who value them.

That's even better than the liberals whining about the gender pay gap when they also say gender is nothing more than a social construct. So all those underpaid birthing persons (or whatever the people we once called women are called today) need to do is identify as male and there is no more gender pay gap.

Not long ago, The Atlantic magazine made reference to how Germany fell to Naziism and cited the words of the president of one of our NATO allies who observed that today's authoritarians "prefer(s) to preserve elections as a legitimizing mechanism. The aim of this illiberalism is a 'managed democracy' unchecked by an independent judiciary and untrammeled by the inconvenience of real democratic accountability that comes through the hazard of electoral defeat and alternating parties in government."

When Executive Orders replace the constitutional role of Congress in lawmaking, calls for packing the Supreme Court come unashamedly from legislators, and political parties or candidates are simply ordered off the ballot by election officials--and such things are then justified in the name of "democracy"--we may wonder how close we now are to that situation in our own country.
