Fuck California? I lost respect for California voters when they voted to ban homosexual marriage in 2008 and my feelings were further validated when they voted to allow the gig economy to classify workers as independent contracters in 2020. Both decisions were heinous and a mockery of CA's progressive chops. Now they look poised to make sure the next governor of CA is a garbage neoliberal and that the next mayor of L.A. a fucking Republican. Bass is terrible, but JFC, GTFO.

Regarding the Uber stuff, Kamala Harris brother in law was the chief legal officer at Uber...

In 2020, Tony West, Uber's Chief Legal Officer, earned total compensation of nearly $12.3 million, predominantly through stock awards. That year, he spearheaded the company's major legal and lobbying battles in California, culminating in the successful passage of Proposition 22.
