@ajsadauskas @mekkaokereke hey, don’t forget that they’re not allowed to become full fledged firefighters after they get out of prison and the state just voted overwhelmingly to keep involuntary servitude for prisoners (including firefighters).
As a California resident: the image most people have of a “liberal bastion” state is a lot less true than is portrayed. A lot of it is cosplay, and that often shows up when it’s important.
