  • "Fascist: noun “a reactionary or dictatorial person.” “Fascism is characterized by support for a dictatorial leader” (Newsome), “cetrralized autocracy” (suppression of republican votes, party, and access to state ballots), “militarism” (Rodney King, BLM, ICE riots, Antifa), “suppression of opposition” (see autocracy comments), “and subordination of individual interests to the interests of the state” (pretty self explainatory). Hitler, one of the poster boys for fascism, lead the National Socialist Worker’s Party. Some like to pretend fascism is only extreme right wing; truth is, there are fascist in every political group. Stalin was a commie; also an accomplished fascist, as is Newsome et Al."

  • "Nanny state looking to raise true, lil obedient commies, just like themselves. The proof is in our face. This is NOT retribution, this is ACCOUNTABILITY. The 30 day clock starts for a local District Superintendent. We live in a country of LAWS. We will follow the Rule of Law and if necessary, remove those that INSIST on being martyred law breakers. ENOUGH."

  • "In the 1980s, there was a commune called Roandoak off Highway 1 near Morro Bay that took in lots of homeless people, druggies and mentally ill people. They too operated on a shoestring with no government money, and the residents had to work, either on their fishing boats or around the property, and attend church every night. Social Services would "look the other way" and dump people off there. I don't know what happened to it, but they kept a lot of these people off the streets at no cost to the community."

  • "Sadly, there is a real incentive to do this. Consider how the retirement system works: these officers get three percent of their highest salary multiplied by the number of years they worked. They can retire at age 50. Overtime is included here, so working a lot of overtime (or faking it like this guy), especially toward the end of their career, when at their highest salary range, tremendously inflates their retirement. Do the math: with overtime, making $150K, multiplied by 3 percent, multiplied by 25 (years of employment) comes to $112,500 a year in retirement for life, starting at age 50. Many of these retirements are much more than this. Also, toward retirement some officers call out sick so a prearranged friend can take their shift, getting overtime, and then the first guy returns the favor. Little wonder he cooked the books!"

  • "Ahh, the desert! But they can’t go there for the same reason. Desert tortoises, kit foxes, and assorted protected rodents and plants. The ESA laws weaponized by people who don’t like those activities, or almost all other outdoor activities unless a docent is present. This is a Permission/ Soft Authoritarian State. They are also making life hard for the people who want to re-open the shooting ranges out on Highway One. I’ve reviewed some of Fish and Wildlife’s requirements, and they are patently absurd. No one can stand there and justify it - straight up authoritarian. Just like no permits for the Palisades homeowners. Bureaucratic monsters! I hope I live long enough to see these agencies brushed aside. They have long outlived their usefulness and have no sense of fairness for the People and the vast resources we all should be sharing."

  • "I know MAGA folks like to call “libs” fascist because “libs” are always labeling Trump with that name. But “fascist lib” is a contradiction in terms. Liberals skew left and the far left is communism. Conservatives are on the right and to the far right is fascism. Fascists and Communists have been fighting each other for almost 100 years. So, “fascist lib” just sounds ignorant. Now, “Commie, Pinko Pig” is a way better term and a lot more accurate."

  • "As of Saturday, Trump is now directing Federal agents to protect Federal buildings and let Dem-run cities fend for themselves against the anti-immigration enforcement riots. "If Local Governments are unable to handle the Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Anarchists, we will immediately go to the location where such help is requested, and take care of the situation very easily and methodically, just as we did with the Los Angeles Riots one year ago, where the Police Chief said that, ‘We couldn’t have done it without the help of the Federal Government.""

  • "Nice comeback! It doesn’t bother me in the least, but its closing seems inevitable. I worked the farmland east and south of Oceano for 50 years and I have no lung problems. In my early days I drove an open air tractor and later a cab, and I was never bothered. I totally agree with this scientist that the particulate matter is not that bad on the Mesa—lived there for 89 years—so definitely not moving. It’s just too bad that Republicans and MAGA folks only believe science when it favors them. I just think this hobby is best done in the desert in areas where it is not as harmful to the environment as it is on the beaches. Folks everywhere else have come to that conclusion. Only a matter of time."

  • "True hallmark of fascist libs everywhere; ignore the science they bark at everyone else to follow (well, at least what they pretend is science), and try, by hook or crook, to make other folks stop doing stuff just cuz they don’t like em doing it. What is not forbidden is mandatory; so pathetically predictable."

  • "According to the Trib, about 300 total from both Cal Poly SLO and Cal Poly Pomona decided to be a little more stupid for a day. The Trib also noted, that "around 200" From SLO High, and maybe a couple dozen from AG High (according to the photo in the article) also skipped school. Between all 4 campuses, the enrollment reaches at least 50,000 students. But only a little over 500 decided that being ignorant, was more important than getting smarter."
