    It sucks voting here as an ML. There’s all these hopeful sounding propositions on things like this and rent and so on and then inevitably every single one that in any way challenges any powerful group gets quashed handily and easily, often without any real propaganda campaigns required either because these liberal NIMBY fucks just vote against that kind of thing.

    I’m sure if you asked every liberal in California, face to face, if they would be in favor of ending slavery by checking a box, 99.9% of them would tell you ‘yes, of course, it’s the very least I could do’. But the mask comes off at home in front of an anonymous paper ballot.
