I’m curious if the “climate change is a hoax” stuff is as prominent in China as the US. I’ve run into so many people who hate EVs solely because they think climate change is a hoax and EVs are just another way to scam them out of money for a lower quality vehicle… despite any evidence of EVs being better quality

The West and the Woke living rent free in dictator, and tyrannical supporter’s dreams.

You list assets and debt. Nothing about revenue. Nothing about the surplus California just had. Nothing about expected income. Nothing about the balance books of other states (guess what, every country and state runs with debt financing).

If California is in trouble because of its economy, then every state is bigger trouble.

You are completely delusional and brainwashed. California is literally carrying the country.

It has the 4th largest economy in the world. That means it’s the best economy of any state by a large margin.

California has the 5th largest economy in the world (compared to other countries), produces a third of the country’s fruits and vegetables, and basically subsidizes all the poor, primarily red states…

California has kept the US at the forefront of the world stage in tech with Silicon Valley, in entertainment with Hollywood, and dare I say cars with Tesla (as much as Elon hates CA these days because COVID and taxes, Tesla would have never survived without California subsidies and green policies).

But go on living in your Fox News world and ignoring reality.

lol you mean the California that is the 4th largest economy compared to countries?

The California that pays most to the federal government, essentially subsidizing poor red states. Talk about taking hand outs, those red states really are lazy and need to pick themselves up by their bootstraps.

Maybe reasonably but people are very irrational. Wish they had a cheat sheet on how to disarm the natural stubbornness and inability to admit mistake or fault. That’s usually far tougher than actually reasoning.

I’m fine with ads. It costs money to run servers and build out the platform.

I’m not fine with the absolutely sleezy way spez handled the api changes and the ridiculous price. Utterly disrespectful to the mods, third party app devs, and Reddit users.
