Hawaii is nice. Still prefer the weather of Cali

Hawaii suffers very very similar issues as Cali such as homelessness because the weather is so good. there is definitely issues of people moving out to hawaii then failing economically and being stuck on the island.

considering california's politica views entirely coincide with every western power i strongly disagree.

cali is one of the primary states that tried to prevent trump, so this factor is even moreso right now

Aside from food, wine and dining what does California have to brag about ?

California looks far too diverse for me.

Why would I want to risk having to club or kill someone every time I walk outside because one doesn't agree with me ?

People from Cali always want to tell everyone how much better California, despite not living there anymore.

In my personal experience people from California are exceptionally stupid, even dumber than folks from the South.

It's such a massive state. Out of curiosity, what city did you live in cali? how long did you live there and what was your profession etc.

I will agree that noncoastal cities can be less pleasent

also...why did you dislike it. you being vague like every other complainer

Lived in LA almost my entire life and worked in HVAC. Didn't like how much dirtier it became, how unaffordable it was, and all the soul sucking traffic.

LA is universally considered one of the worst places to live in the country, let alone Cali. There are so many other amazing places in california like tahoe etc.

also working HVAC in the most expensive state seems unwise

Being educated still doesn't mean that one can still be dumb about things or general living.

i think many do think the criticisms are valid, just not really that big of a deal. homeless people dont bother me. most are mentally ill (more than half have schizophrenia) and from all over the country. they often have interesting stories

i work as a nurse and care for them everyday

That sounds like a you problem, and not really a problem for the people who choose to live there and can afford it

the reason why it is expensive is because everyone wants to live there. just like oregon now

I don't like celebrity worship culture, i don't like Lakers fans, and i don't like the sense of Californian exceptionalism - especially regarding food. A Californian would probably try and tell me they have better middle eastern food than Dearborn - even though it has one of the biggest Muslim populations in the US; they'll also say they have better ice cream than the midwest - when tons of flavors originated here, or they'll say they have better Mexican than Mexico, Japanese than Japan, etc. It's just ridiculous.

Otherwise i probably agree with a ton of their politics and wouldn't dislike them

the food is simply better in california. everything is competition, and that competition begets better food.

ice cream may have originated in the midwest, but now there hundreds of thousands of ice cream shops in cali. and they all compete to get customers. and the customers go to the the one that tastes the best

also all the produce in the country is grown there, for the most part.

celebrity worship culture has nothing to do with California. i have literally never met anyone who cares about celebrities. did you get that vibe from television shows?

You proved my post.
You're delusional if you think ice cream is better in California than the midwest -- as if competition doesn't exist out of CA?
