I love this debate and I expect it will go on forever. It boils down to, A: "California's problems are because California is too California!" "B: Nooo, we have not yet begun to California! If we California harder we can solve all the problems!"

Submitted with humor and best regards.

To add to that...there are a not-insignificant volume of people escaping California, which leaves more of those who are ULTRA-California.

So you're concentrating the California of California as well.

Seems to be true everywhere. Florida is certainly selecting for Christian nationalists, for instance.

Agreed. It's not a uniquely California phenomenon the US is obviously becoming increasingly divided politically.

IMO this is what has been happening in virtually all US cities. The people that stay in them are increasingly in agreement with themselves politically simply because the others leave.

California would be "I got mine, but we can make things more fair for you by lowering your standards and giving you measly benefits so the feudal stratification is okay."

People are free to leave but it's hard to move in. That's pretty much the opposite of feudal.

EDIT: Also no-competes are illegal in CA. Also very anti-feudal. Where's all this feudalism?
