Why do people dislike California? - eviltoast

I recently moved to California. Before i moved, people asked me “why are you moving there, its so bad?”. Now that I’m here, i understand it less. The state is beautiful. There is so much to do.

I know the cost of living is high, and people think the gun control laws are ridiculous (I actually think they are reasonable, for the most part). There is a guy I work with here that says “the policies are dumb” but can’t give me a solid answer on what is so bad about it.

So, what is it that California does (policy-wise) that people hate so much?

    I was in the Mojave desert last winter and it was 15° F not including wind-chill. Cherry picking some irrelevant map doesn’t work. I know where I live, and certainly know it better than you and your terrible Google-Fu. I’m leaving this slap fight now. Enjoy your real winter ☃️ 💪

      You did it; you confused weather for climate. Next, you can disprove global farming by watching it snow.
