    By any chance do you have a good link that explains all the terrible stuff Gavin has done? I know some of the stuff but my memory is not like it used to be and my wife was asking and I wanted to explain to her that even though he’s making some funny Trump jokes he’s a piece of crap himself

      Fucked over the homeless in Cali, thrown trans people under the bus rhetorically.

      He’s not wrong that he has signed a lot of legislation protecting trans Californians, but he’s been going into right wing talk show spaces and nodding soberly saying yeah, you have some good points about their moral panic about us.

      It would be next to impossible to find a video like the one you’re asking for without MAGA pollutants.

      I can name off one thing, his partying with incredibly expensive wine and food at the height of the pandemic after the mask mandates. That was the big thing for me that convinced me he’s a differently colored snake.

        I think the housing and homeless stuff would be worse. However I was not asking for a video. Definitely prefer not to be a video, actually.

          Truth be told, I didn’t really know much about his homeless policies at the time. I was very much keeping my head buried as far as I could in whatever I could to avoid everything. This was just the piece of information that managed to reach me that made me think he’s not too good of a guy.

          Because you’re right, how he’s ‘helped’ the homeless is absolutely worse.
