There are millions of people in California today who are now becoming fully aware of the ramifications of the policies of the progressive left over the last 5-10 years. No, they will not become MAGA supporters overnight, nor will they necessarily even vote Republican anytime in the near future. However, they will most certainly think twice before voting in progressive woke candidates over moderate Democrats. They will vote for those who speak about leadership being reasonable, sane, and qualified and not just driven by diversity and LGBTQ rights.
More than ten thousand homes have burnt down in what is not at all just a natural disaster. Proper management of this fire on the local, state, and national levels should have contained this fire to a minor disaster that would have affected no more than one hundred homes.
The reason why this is so important is that there have been fires in the hills around Los Angeles many times before. There is nothing very surprising about this situation. But when the focus of those in power is to promote woke agendas, then societal chaos takes precedence over law and order.
There are very few examples in the United States as clear as California for what happens to a part of the country when woke agendas take over. The results are crystal clear. The streets become littered with homeless people on fentanyl. Crime committed by emotionally disturbed people who take over the public parks and main thoroughfares become normalized. After all, there is no genuine fear of punishment when jails become turnstyles due to woke D.A.’s. Their is a shortage of men and women signing up to the police forces which aggravates all facets of crime. This leads to gradual but consistent mass emigration from the State to other States that have tough-on-crime measures.
The GDP of the State spirals downward, and more people decide to invest in out of state real estate. The wealthy become wealthier via investment bankers who invest in out of state properties and don’t feel much of the downward spiral as they generally avoid public parks. The private country clubs don’t feel the effects of crime. Their guards are not lesbians. Meanwhile, the poor become more downtrodden.
Following all of these negative trends, it is no surprise that basic elements of society that keep things orderly like a police or fire department become ineffective. The LA fire disaster of 2025 is no more than a 10% natural disaster. The rest is man-made.
