@thedisasterautist if you talk to any native Californians, or even transplants, they'll tell you how awesome CA is at everything. How it's the 5th largest economy in the world, etc., etc.

It's mostly Hollywood driven perception of the Golden State built on the white, silent and then boomer migration out there post-WW2. Whiiiiich has now been moved to Colorado!

We have almost all the cable & satellite tv companies HQ, Olympics, DIA, SPACE FORCE, etc.

We're awesome. 😎
