As much as I dislike Gavin Newsom this is what opposition actually looks like, play dirty, be petty. Don't give them an inch.

I mean, I'm pretty sure this is just a tweet rather than an actual ban.

[–] candyman337@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That makes more sense tbh, I was wondering, does he mean not allowing him the permits? How does he control that? So if it's just a tweet that actually makes way more sense lol

Yeah, the executive branch isn't supposed to be able to do anything without legislation, meaning unless there was an actual designation of Kid Rock as something that is legally banned, it was just them doing their stupid tweet stuff. Now if Newsome stated he has evidence that Kid Rock was part of Antifa, and was putting out an arrest warrant in his state, that would be another story

I think that’s the point. It’s just as legally binding as Trump’s Truth Social mask ban.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah I hope so. It's funny as a tweet and not so much as an actual action by the government

TIL not allowing some poser to bellow "KIIIIIIIDDD RAWWWWWWKK" before the world's shittiest country rap set is politics

[–] chrischryse@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Agreed. They are too scared to play dirty….but sometimes to get by you gotta stoop to your oppositions level, being “innocent” doesn’t help

Two different breeds of authoritarian in a pissing match?

[–] DarkSideOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

It’s just an ironic tweet in this case

[–] chemicalprophet@slrpnk.net -5 points 6 months ago (2 children)

What kind of slap fight life do you lead?!! I can’t wait for you to passive agress/irritate the fascism away. lol

[–] candyman337@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

I didn't say this was the perfect example of the only example, I said this is what opposition actually looks like, considering the Dems aren't acting as much of an opposition party right now.

[–] Lightor@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yeah for real. Real men do real shit. How you fighting fascism?

[–] chemicalprophet@slrpnk.net 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Well… You should know we don’t post about that on the internet, dipshit. What we’re not relying on is more ‘gotchas’ and sick burns. Get a life, Citizen. And why you have to bring gender into this? Strange projection. Or maybe it’s lack of strange projection? What you can do: organize, educate, infiltrate, read some theory. What you shouldn’t do: rely on the paid for government actors to save you. Also, it seems you’re itching to tell us all what you’ve done, please elaborate. You vote real hard?

[–] Lightor@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's a lot of words without ever answering my question. Telling.

I didn't ask what I can do, I don't need the help of an online troll. I asked what you're doing.

[–] chemicalprophet@slrpnk.net 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Do you not know how to read? Are you a fucking cop? Do you think everyone is as dumb as you? ACAB, go huff more farts you strange-less loser…

[–] Lightor@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

Really emotional response. Doesn't leave a lot of room for reason. Probably explains all those wild, loaded questions. Also not sure what "strange-less" is but I'm sure you nailed me.
