You'd be amazed how many people assume Rivershit must be some "liberal utopia" because it's in CA. Honestly, this shithole would fit in better in Alabama or South Carolina or something. This area was heavily pro-Prop 8 in 2008, it's one of the hotbeds for the attempts to recall Newsom ("BECAUSE MUH FREEDUMBS!!!" , and many of the cretins here don't even bother to hide their racism and hatred for the LGBTQ community. A few years ago, I had a police officer admit to me "It's still 1888 out there" on the subject of race, LGBTQ issues, etc.
The Press-Enterprise themselves have had to shut down comments to all of their articles because every damned article - no matter the subject - would get the usual extreme-right comments. Attacks on POC. Attacks on LGBTQ's - especially T's. "Stop the squeal!" and "libs are ruining Murka" and "Heil Drumpf". The comments there were on par with the kind of hatred that you'd see on Yahoo when they allowed comments.
So, of course this bigoted, backwards-ass shithole city is going to gleefully embrace those insurrectionists and terrorists. Fucking unreal, when you think about it. Gaetz and Traitor Greene: Too extreme for Orange County, but welcome in Riverslime, CA. Who would you like to welcome next, Shitside? TFG? Putin? Holograms of George Wallace or Hitler?
I'm writing an email to the mayor and city clowncil member for my ward about this. I expect it to do no good. But I need to get it off my chest. I am angry, embarrassed, and honestly, more than a little frightened. But what else is new? This is how I've felt about this third-world city for years. Just even moreso this week, between Arsenio Hall's on-the-nose diss of this city, and now the city telling these terrorists "You're welcome here".
(Arsenio on Monday night, filling in for Jimmy Kimmel: "This might be one of the weirdest headlines Ive ever seen. Meth Pollution in the Waterways Turns Trout into Junkies.' Thats right. Apparently areas where people smoke meth, it gets into the water and the fish start to behave like meth heads. Yes, they lose they teeth
they move to Riverside. I guess they get they stuff from Walter Whitefish."
To fucking hell with Traitor Greene, Gaetz, and this pathetic excuse of a city.
Apologies if this seems over the top, but, right now I feel like Pavel Chekov in Star Trek VI... "Guess who's coming to dinner."
