“It’s like a dystopian sci-fi movie. Unmarked cars, people in masks, people quite literally disappearing. No due process, no rights, no right in a democracy where we have rights.”

If only he had the same concern for all of those homeless folks he keeps displacing. If only they had rights too.

Stop with the both sides are bad and two sides to every story arguments. You’re just trying to derail the discussion and muddy the waters. This is propaganda 101.

The only person screaming “both sides” here is you. There is nothing wrong with discourse of a political candidate. You trying to shut down my criticism is the bad faith. Sound familiar?

Gavin Newsom is not a whole side unto himself. He's a politician, and he's responsible for horrendous shit as well.
