i know a lot of the newsom support is astroturf and they’re just gauging reactions so they can genetically engineer the most electable candidate who’s still an absolute psycho but i just love talking shit about that man i’m sorry

shitting on gavin newsom is one of the few joys left to me
And it's free! Can we start a club?
The 80’s called and wants that cheesy hairdo back!🤢😂
allow us this in our advanced age
If the world has space for that man's veneers, it has space for this.
People talk about him as Patrick Bateman, which tracks, but his persona also makes me think of the movie NETWORK. Like, he would start interviewing Angela Davis, Bob Avakian & Medea Benjamin on his podcast if he thought it would benefit him politically.
I love dunking on newsom sfm one of my fave past times

My guess is they are not designing the perfect candidate. That’s not how they roll.
Same!
i will talk shit about him because i have this nagging suspicion that somewhere out there an actual human being is on that train and i want them to know they are not welcome in society
I just wonder- does he understand democrats can grab those 5 seats TX is trying to give Rep. so he raises above Trump instead of dropping to heir level?
I also wonder is he even aware there’s already better candidates suited than him? Or does he not even think about “huh maybe people will not like what I do. Maybe I should stop being fascist”
Perfectly valid
Here's some ammo. Ive been telling people its fuck Gavin Newsom for years. As a leftist Californian Ive hated him as my governor from day one. Glad more are catching on to how garbage he is. bsky.app/profile/chee...
I rewrote this to be more clear. bsky.app/profile/chee...
I'm thousands of mile from you but I started noticing him years ago. every couple months I would see the same story: California legislature passes [unbelievably positive thing], vetoed by governor
Well, just did a quick look back at his Vetoes, and I was aware of some of these, but ... Ya Newsom isnt a leftists at all, he's a fiscal conservative, larping as a Democrat. Heres's a thread of some of them that caught my eye.
you gotta hate for the love of the game
it's the reason i get out of bed in the morning
I’ve just been blocking all accounts posting all the ai nonsense. I even blocked mark hamill.
It would help if I didn’t see so many real people falling for such an obvious grift.
I enjoy talking shit about him and everyone who supports him.
I’ve found it’s a good way to slip in useful information actually, If a real person is arguing with you, that means they are reading your posts Even if they disagree or dismiss, the information was seen I’ve started attaching educational materials like this to my posts youtu.be/bxXIVt83hI0
A fight is also a good way to get that information to people who agree with you. Usually when I do it, my target audience isn’t the Gavinstan, it’s people who are uninformed or people who feel threatened by him Replies to threads get you more views than your own posts on this site
Err rather, more views *if you are not popular* XD
I’ve been collecting a library of links for fighting Newsom specifically. Here they are: fortune.com/2024/08/09/g... www.erininthemorning.com/p/ca-gov-gav... www.politico.com/news/2023/09... www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/07/gavi... apnews.com/article/cali...
I do the same! :)
oooh handy!
good luck out there 🫶🏼
I do the same and I put the names on a list of those that simply are here to troll and frequently post unwanted content. I’m looking forward to creating that list nice and big for others to join the fight against fascism.
I have a love-hate relationship with Newsom. As in he'd love for me (a trans person) to throw myself under the bus, and I hate his fucking guts.
They’ll end up picking an unelectable freak anyway, it’s their sole talent 👍💯
He just makes it so easy
Fuck Gavin Newson all my my homies hate Gavin Newson
I only spell it right so it rhymes with gruesome
Refuse to spell anything correctly I don’t care anymore lmao
People like him cuz they know that if he were to die in office, his hair would carry on the office of the president, bravely doing the job Gavin wanted. 🫡
Just stop. I was already in the boat 🎣
Patrick Bateman lookin' mf, he definitely has watched snuff films or made them, I'm convinced
He creeps me out in the most uncanny valley way
Oh, yeah, cuz he’s so obviously fake. Reagan had the same effect on me. He was like my dad, always laughing around others, abusing around us.
Oof that’s too accurate 💜
When people liked Reagan it truly disturbed me.
Yay! My people 🥹
Posts like these is what woke me up to “We need people to fight right now but we can’t idolize Trump but in blue flavor”. The media is intentionally focusing only on Gavin and not other better dems fighting just as hard if not harder.
The other blue governors are doing more than this sleazy car salesman
Yes, AND they don't require 24/7 news coverage to feed an already overbloated ego the way Newsom does. They're doing the work steadily and quietly, and most of them don't hate their trans constituents.
the governor of goddamned kentucky apparently refuses to hate trans people
like we talk up walz and pritz day and night and for good reason but literally supporting trans rights does not lose
Holy shit? I grew up in Alabama and if you told me this 5 years ago I wouldn’t believe you. If Kentucky can vote in somebody who doesn’t hate trans people, the rest of the country can follow suite.

there is NO tension between what is moral, what is scientific, and what is politically expedient.
Fuck the media for convincing us we have to abandon our basic principles to appeal to voters. It’s entirely possible to appeal to the average American without picking and choosing which minorities deserve rights.
Most average people care more about cost of living and such. If a candidate addresses both common issues and social issues that makes them appealing. You can support bills that help farmers and laborers while also supporting the right for trans people to exist.
its the big lie that has weird bigotries propagate by people who insist they dont adhere to them but align with them for the purpose of not alienating a mythic Normal who mostly does not give a damn
We have no excuse! Not wanting to harm trans people doesn’t make a candidate “unelectable”. I firmly believe the media is laser focused on Newsome so the average person thinks they only have 2 choices, when in reality we have a lot of choices at this moment.
There are a lot of things to lay at Newsom's feet, but the idea, based on one poorly thought out comment, that Newsom "want[s] to harm" trans ppl is ludicrous & completely ignores the things done to protect trans, & other LGBTQ+ ppl - including kids.
Oops www.politico.com/news/2025/03...
which was the "poorly thought-out comment", the one where he agrees with charlie kirk about trans women in sports or the one where he agrees with shawn ryan about 25 being too young to transition
this may be a rhetorical question if you are another astroturf goon instead of a person
nypost.com/2024/08/09/u... I dunno seems like he’s harming Americans to me
Downplaying the concerns and voices of Trans people is how we got into this mess in the first place!
If the GOP is not run out of office, ALL LGBTQ+ ppl, are in very, VERY serious trouble. Y'all don't seem to realize this...or care. The current admin. wants to fucking disappear trans ppl and y'all are out here bemoaning the PERFECT candidate. www.tiktok.com/@cuzzindariu...
Newsom is so unpopular to Californians that he almost got recalled. The only reason he didn't is because the Republican against him was incredibly incompetent.
iammavisdavis.bsky.social tagged as "Confirmed Propagandist"
Unfortunately scared people flock to a charismatic leader. When the news covers him as the only democrat doing something, less informed dems cling to him as a shred of hope. This is a media orchestrated manipulation of the ballot happening in real time.
Newsom can't win without the trans community. Trump won by ≈2 million votes and Newsom's already lost at least 3 million (not counting family members and actual allies).
We need somebody who is charismatic and not a total piece of shit. Throwing trans people under the bus to appeal to republicans is not how we save democracy.
As much as I'm a "billionaires shouldn't be allowed to exist" person, Pritzker is the best choice who will also appeal to white suburban men (the demographic that failed to turn out the most in 2024).
Yep. I understand the need to appeal to the average american too. Full radical change is unlikely in a single election cycle. We need to undo decades of GOP brain washing. But it shouldn’t be a choice between appealing to the average american and trans lives.
Hence, Pritzker.
We need to push Pritzkers message harder to counteract the media Newsome glazing. I didn’t know about Pritzker until yesterday, though I haven’t been as online lately. That’s a problem.
Democrats have a messaging problem and I wonder if it’s incompetence or intentional. A lot of democrat voters care about down to earth issues like farmers, laborers, and personal freedoms. We need to get the average persons idea of a democrat to not be a person only whining about social issues.
I also find it odd that many people are claiming it’s basically Newsome or nothing. No, we can back somebody better. I fell into the whole purity politics shit but I think that has turned into a dog whistle at this point.
Yes people who didn’t vote for Kamala because of Palestine made the wrong choice. But how large was that minority of voters? With how America is set up getting a progressive in office will be a long hard fight, but we can do better than Newsome right now.
I support his redistricting of California to show the hypocrisy of Texas, but that’s it. He did a decent thing, but is the bar really that low?
Well... it would appear so. I mean, cultist were fawning over a candidate that didn't promise anything progressive, just vibes [check out how this statement could apply to either Newsom or Harris]
And it's not even a "decent" thing. Gerrymandering should be banned on pain of never being able to hold public office.
Yep. When dems get power back they need to crack down hard on these election rigging practices. I understand the need to match the republicans game at this very moment, but we have to fix the system so this can never happen again.
Sleazy car salesman is the perfect description. Smarmy was all I could come up with. Though I do support his current attempts to make MAGAs see how ludicrous their cult leader is, I’d never vote for him to lead the nation.
The media has to be intentionally only covering him. Call me a conspiracy theorist but why would they only focus on Blue Trump? All this attention is making people recognize Newsomes name and that has real power.
Occams razor. I think Newsom is paying for this. You want a conspiracy, look into what happened to money meant for housing the homeless here in California. They were paying shitty hotels 6k a month per person, the math doesn't add up.
its so obvious where gavin supporters get their info from. or rather, how absolutely deprived they are of info outside of msm.
He's got a very punchable face it's true
I appreciate this post and completely feel the same. We will probably be stuck in the same 2 party, but actually uniparty, bullshit when it’s clear that the people are screaming for something honest and new.
Only one party currently has National Guard troops occupying DC and is threatening to do the same to other cities.
Exactly. Why do democrats always go against each other and allow republicans to stay in charge? The current Republican Party is dismantling our way of life and democrats are holding purity tests rather than uniting together to stop the monsters!
Distracting rhetoric won’t change newsom being a fascist fuck but do continue to tell people to settle
People overlook that so much and I can’t fucking stand it anymore
Go for it! Soon you won't be able to make of anyone except approved targets of derision.
Just come in here and say you’re a fascist with your chest next time

very good
Never apologize for mocking a Patrick Bateman wanna be.
It feels like a fad that isn't meant to last very long.
He is *such* a ripe target, innit? So many disgusting facets 🥴
May we one day get to Kendrick levels of being a hater 😌
DNC consultant making high six-figures: we have to find the middle ground between Buttigieg and Newsom on the trans issue me: fuck the small political rat man and his tall friend
Don’t forget the sad pathetic excuse of calling our rights “purity tests”
i do it for love
ME TOO!!
Gavin Newsom brushes his alarmingly white teeth with clorox
he’s the slimiest dude ever but still manages to be a better pick than CA republicans
Idk I think I’d vote for Schwarzenegger over Newsom at this point
*most* CA republicans, Arnold was definitely a different breed from, say, Nunes, who is much more typical
Tbh I dunno if Arnold would even run as a Republican at this point
Yep. I don't think Arnie could get elected as a Republican now. The CA ones are legit off their rockers. Maybe he'd run as an independent.
He’s coming out swinging against the redistricting, it’s not great
That isn't good. But again, Arnold's not part of the modern CA Republican party so who knows how much it matters.
Worth noting, I did not say he was not a dumbass, just that he was a different kind
When he was Governor he visited my lab and gave me a withering stare as I yelled “get dahwn!”
If he did he wouldn’t win a single delegate.
Said it before but at least if nothing else Arnie knows what Nazis deserve and it’s not “being invited on your podcast to agree with”.

Heaven forbid they just run the most popular politician in America for the last ten years. That would be too easy. Just rig three primaries against him instead. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's like Buttigieg, you can just keep going back to the well.
Support for what, the Response Act right now or a presidential primary run in three years? For some strange reason they seem to be getting blurred together.
It's not strange, it's just centrists being dishonest as usual
at best...
I think it’s funny that Buttigieg got the bots for a week before they were transferred over to Newsom.
Even the bots were having trouble sounding excited about Mayor Pete.
No apology. Same here 🙌🏼
you're doing very well and we love you for it
ty~
for real he’s like a piñata
sorry not sorry :)
