There's been ton of time spent by a lot of folks defending or criticizing Gavin Newsom's mocking and trolling of our ersatz president. Here's a take I hadn't seen yet. Have a listen. #GavinNewsom #whiteprivilege

He speaks the truth and yet not sure how else to react and hold the mirror to the embodiment of white privilege.

He could also use his privilege to shield trans athletes and the homeless but instead he chose to harm So, enjoy his memes but when it comes down to issues, he's garbage

5 youth trans athletes in all of the U.S. Let’s make that an issue like Fox did.

He's right. But then, this is exactly why MAGA fascists will end democracy in the US within this decade, because those that should oppose it will get in woke/not woke shit debates while Vought, Vance, & Trump run the Nazi playbook almost unopposed.

I had an interesting debate here on bsky lately. Apparently, he did/didnt things about homelessness and lgbtq stuff so he's unvotable for those who need a 110% perfect candidate... and you find the same about any other dem poster child. Pritzker billionaire Sanders old AOC woman/color Buttigieg gay

No one is asking for a 110% perfect candidate they are asking for a non-Hitler candidate. Newsom defenders have said he’s the 99% Hitler vs. Trumps 100% Hitler. Asking for someone less than 50% hitler or 😱 0% Hitler is too much. You ask people to sacrifice themselves don’t expect support in return

I'm not asking for anything, I'm not even a big fan of newsom myself, I was talking about the imho very unnecessary debate about a social media trolling campaign. 2028 is still far out and my favs would be AOC+Pete. The video guy was somehow right though, a good use of white privilege...

Newsome has said he doesn’t think trans people should transition until they’re 26 because the brain isn’t fully developed. Yet he was dating a 19 year old. His trolling is fine but there are reasonable reasons for refusing to consider voting for him should he run. He spreads right wing propaganda

How bout AOC. 0% Hitler. Certified. By the Council for % Hitler.

And just to prove my point, the unicorn blocks are rolling in... "We want to be heard but we don't wanna listen" sounds too familiar nowadays, so please go on 🦝

We don't want a 110% perfect candidate. We want a candidate that doesn't agree with republicans that our most vunerable people should stay vunerable. Would you vote for newsom if he agreed with the idea that black people are inherently more violent than white people? I hope not.
aug 29, 2025, 3:30 pm • 1 0 • view
Obv I don't agree. As I said before, the newsom debate is imho unnecessary rn because he hopefully won't be the candidate, it's just some trmp trolling atm and I would vote him last place... Let's get away from this singular person, what would your fav team be for presidency?

There are currently people who are saying that he is the front runner so we have to back him regardless. That is the context of the conversation. But as of this moment I would like to see aoc or pritzker or walz take the front. They all of issues but known as bad as newsom.
aug 29, 2025, 5:29 pm • 2 0 • view
Yeah I would go with any of those 3 over newsom... Pritzker probably has the best chances, Walz is VP material at best, imagine him debate vs a bloodhound like miller. Depending on how fcked up things are in '28, ppl might even vote for a woman this time (geez, this sentence alone is making me 😭)

I don’t believe this at all. Are you telling me this is the reason Obama and Harris haven’t been more forceful in their criticism of Trump? It’s not the you go low we go high principle? I don’t buy it. I think Obama’s afraid of losing his SS protection, probably rightly. Crockett has gone hard, tho.

Out on the button. Trump is a coward. Trump is in the files. Trump is a bitch.

I'm all for GCN mocking DJT. Getting in the mud with the pig is a strategy passed over by too many Dems The right wing has been trained to sneer at lofty liberals and critical thinking. This sort of base attack works, because it's the only thing their brains respond to. GCN is doing yeoman's work
aug 29, 2025, 12:07 pm • 15 2 • view
Thinking about it more, I would agree with this guy's take. Jasmine Crockett has gone into the mud with MTG before. But it's pretty easily brushed off because she's an Emmanuel Goldstein that Fox News has trained the base to hate. Something they're easily primed to do with women and black folks.

Donald Trump is a little bitch. He made up bone spurs to get out of the fucking draft! If he cared about your country, he would have served! He is the very definition of "LITTLE BITCH."

We all saw the Barack lookalikes saying exactly what Felon47 said, and how shocking that was. This is 💯 true - no non-white politician would survive trolling tRump. That said….“He cowers away like a little bitch” is the lesson to be learned, leveraged and amplified. #resist

Beautifully put. Great analysis. Nice work!! Gavin isn’t perfect but he has put himself up there and is one of just a few actually tackling Trump head on. You might not like him or his tactics, but the impact is there for everyone to see.

I hadn't thought of or considered this perspective, but this young man is right! Of course, if any of the People of Color whom he named here had started this campaign, I'd have been fighting their corner, but that is not what I'd expect from 80% of White people, even non-MAGA.

I’ve been posting on FB how Trump and SuperNazi Stephen Miller love the look of taking on a black woman. (Mayor Bass, Jasmine Crockett, Mayor Bowser, and Lisa Cook) He’s the worst kind of fake tough guy bully and they know their redneck MAGA base eats it up when they go after black women.

He nails it. Newsom is using his white privilege to go after Trump. That is why his actions are effective. And I say, yes, more please.

I don't know it. I can understand why those mentioned would feel somewhat more threatened; they generally are, but it certainly wouldn't affect my opinion of them. I'd only think they'd have the same issue Newsom has: how and when to turn it off.
