I kinda laugh when people stereotype California as being super progressive. Sure, it can be progressive in some aspects relative to other states, but that’s a pretty low bar and the state is definitely not a monolith politically.
Recent example: Yesterday, San Diego city council passed a homeless encampment ban in many areas as long as there are shelter beds available. This does nothing to help people transition out of homelessness and gives police more power to harass, cite, and arrest some of our most marginalized people. Like Ken Saragosa said, “The problem is you can’t arrest homelessness out of existence.”
There are far too few shelter beds in the city, so it’s questionable if this can even be enforced anytime soon, though I doubt such technicalities will stop the police. I hope this gets challenged legally and thrown out.

Not what I said at all. I listed ROC, OCA, and Catholic churches
Many historic.
If you prefer services in Russian, that is understandable. Tongue and god are easier when we choose each.
But don't lie and say I wasn't posting ROC, Catholic, and OCA churches

I have been saying it for months
Russia is running a deliberate assassination campaign on popular aid and NGO groups with large social media presence.
Just more evidence.
Russia is a diseased state with an incurable condition called Russia
❗Kherson Update❗🤬
The ruzzians just tried to kill us, they spotted our van with a drone and shelled our position, one person is wounded.
If we left a minute later...

I could not think of a better quote to capture Russian paranoia towards Baltics.
Number of Russian military and Government officials calling for return to 1914 borders is alarming.
Russia is diseased, permanently stuck in Derzhavnost wet dreams to hide domestic impotence.
