    Black and lesbian pales in comparison to her lobbying on behalf of Uber and AirBNB. Lobbyists are never pro labor, pro union, or pro working class. She’s a token that the DNC will weaponize her sexual orientation and gender as deflection from her history: When someone points out she helped deny Uber/Lyft independent contractors employee status, some mindless drone will come along and claim we dont like her because she’s black, or we are homophobic.

    Democrats ran an entire campaign against Dr Oz (despite him being a shitty person) on the fact he lived in New Jersey and not Pennsylvania when he was running against Fetterman. But now it’s ok that Butler will represent California despite her primary residence being in Maryland.

      Ehh the different state thing might be meh. I dunno how Californias feel but they were appealing to Philly voters.

      As someone from Philly lemme tell you about the armpit of America aka New Jersey. Fuck them assholes almost as bad as delco. People will lie about being from Jersey and say they’re from Philly.

      Feels like more cultural shit to our area tbh

      I never really heard about Oz being from another state, but I knew how shifty he was already. BtB and iirc Last Week Tonight.
