Not Gavin Newsom though!
Not surprising, he ain’t exact a prole.
Im just so fucking tired of the mainstream media annointing Gavin Newsom as a progressive in an incessant endless and superficial way.
One of the most slimy motherfuckers alive. Believes nothing. The man would curbstomp babies with his classic dead-eyed soulless smile if his presidential campaign consultant's polls showed it would boost his numbers.
He is not a person. He is an empty vessel to be filled and piloted by capital.
And that's exactly why they'll push him over anyone else.
progressive has nothing to do with giving a shit about the poor.
Factually incorrect, if you want to criticize progressives for not doing enough sure but you are being ridiculous if you don't think progressives advocate for changes that would massively increase the quality of life of the poor in the US.
And we are all working class at best.
Techno progressivism and cultural progressivism both don't necessarily lead to any better outcomes for the poor
There is no nobel price for for economics.
Stop the gaslighting by the swedish national bank!
