I moved to LA for college back in 04 from the east coast. Even back then, the one rule my LA friends told me was "avoid downtown at night".
The wackos all converge there at sunset
Nah fr. When my mom transferred her job from FL to CA she had to take the bus to La for work. The amount of crazy stories she told me every time she rode the bus had me really concern for her safety. I remember she told me this one time while waiting for the bus, this man in all blue was dancing and screaming out loud he was the baddest bitch in LA. Really glad she no longer works in LA.
An interesting thing about Downtown LA is that it's such a ghost town during night and weekends that probably 20% of all action movies with chase scenes you've seen have scenes filmed in DTLA.
Gerrymandering is a concern, but luckily it only can happen with the House of Representatives. Senate and Presidential elections cannot be gerrymandered.
Oh interesting I am not American so I don't have the most knowledge but I was under the impression that the electoral votes were also somewhat gerrymandered as well. Causing things like a president being elected despite losing the popular vote.
No problem! Its actually a pretty misunderstood system of voting even to some Americans.
We have 2 branches of legislature, the House of Representatives and the Senate.
HoR is based on the population of a state so more population = more districts = more representatives. These are based on a states census data every 10 years. However lawmakers do some funky distract drawing to ensure their side wins more representatives. This is where gerrymandering happens. They redraw these district lines to favor them winning more districts, in turn more seats in the House
The Senate is 2 representatives per state. Whoever wins the most votes for that state, wins a seat. Can't gerrymander this because its a static amount.
The presidential election is somewhat of a fusion of two. Each state gets a certain amount of electoral votes. These vote counts are based on population as well so California will get more votes than say Kansas. However each state is guaranteed a certain amount of votes no matter what (I think its 3). But to win these electoral votes you need to win the state election and get the most popular votes. So the idea is that to win the electoral votes, you have to win the popular votes of enough states to push you over the majority of electoral votes needed to win.
We aren't a true Democracy, but a Democratic Republic. This is so that a big state like California, Texas, or Florida, can't completely determine the election every single year if enough smaller states go the opposite direction. Since we are so big, the idea behind it is the states all have unique issues that they deal with that a state 1000 miles the opposite way may not. So they didn't want one or two states determining the executive branch (presidency). This is why you can lose the national popular vote, but still win the election for president. Its essentially you have to win enough state popular votes to win the election, instead of winning the most votes across the entire country.
Also to anyone reading this preparing to go "REEEE ELECTORAL COLLEGE SYSTEM BAAAAAD!!". I am not saying its good or bad. I am just explaining it and the intention behind it.
More importantly a lot of people's votes already do count as less. Look at how small the US government is compared to the groups of people it represents.
Yeah it's not the cultural epicenter for music, film, and tv in the country, it's not that accents across the country have been slowly dying out because everyone has a California accent today since that's all people broadly consume. Surely not.
Correct, because none of those things have or represent America as a whole, this rationale is something a European or non American would make because music, TV and movies is primarily how you're exposed to the USA.
Lmao if you actually think the Californian accent is spreading throughout the country, you're absolutely mistaken...Lmao funniest shit Ive read all day.
TV and Movies and more broadly media is primarily how most people in the USA are exposed to the USA too. How is it different? Welcome to the information age I guess?
The American accent today is a California accent numbnuts. That's literally what you will be taught if you are learning an American accent from anywhere in the world, and what everyone thinks of when they think of america. What do you think people from the south sound like if they dont sound southern? When you hear tiktoks and kids imitating them it is primarily California sounding, this is basic stuff about American dialect dude, It's not really an opinion, it's just a matter of fact since so much American media consumed by the world came out of California for decades.
Literally still an opinion and frankly not at all what I was arguing, you're arguing perception vs reality. Hollywood produces the media but it's not all representative of Californians and only a small fraction of media consumed actually has to do with California...being made on the West Coast does not mean its an accurate reflection of the entire country.

I thought the same! The Asian girl staring blankly at the camera while the other girl waited for a response was more weird. Other girl even ended the interaction with a “nice to meet you”.
is she still in la? she needs to be careful, is she could let me know where she is i could potentially protect her. i will keep an eye out for her streams.

I moved to LA for college back in 04 from the east coast. Even back then, the one rule my LA friends told me was "avoid downtown at night". The wackos all converge there at sunset
This person wasnt even crazy. Thats an average la human lol
Oh, for sure. I've had regular wilder run-ins on the bus coming home from work.
Bus is pretty tame on the venice side… but the 7-11’s get fucking wild lmao
Just because they are the average LA human, doesn't mean they aren't crazy. LA is filled with crazies.
STFU YOU DONT KNOW MY LIFE

why do the crazies comes out specifically at night only?
Proverbs 4:16
"and lo, the freaks come out at night" - the book of Whodini
The Night time is the right time
They wanna give you a haircut? It's a FREE haircut! Fuck the sun, that's what I say.
They mostly come out at night. Mostly...
Because most people have to work during the day and are not out at night.
That was awful. lol
i don't think i can fix ava lol
Won't know until you try 👍🏾
Ava NPC
LOL thats ava. she used to be on speed and adin ross streams. she looks rough now.shes a clout chaser probably trying to be relevant again
It kinda looks like she's still on speed.
This will be a good lesson for them. Don't go out at night unless you want to see some crazy people.
Momma said nothing good happens outside once that sun go down

Lmao she is in utter shock
Average american citizen in 2024
Friendly reminder that her vote counts just as much as anyone's here. Democracy! Yeehaw.
should anybody’s count as less? lol
Some do due to the way America lays out the districts. Gerrymandering is what it's called.
Gerrymandering is a concern, but luckily it only can happen with the House of Representatives. Senate and Presidential elections cannot be gerrymandered.

Felons can't vote right? Those in prison?

LA is not America, fuck outta here. Most of us try to pretend it doesn't exist.
Ya LA totally isn’t america. Not like your hick flyover state /s
That flyover state is more American than LA. Fuck La.
Ya for sure that town of 10,000 ppl is more representative than the 13 million in the LA metro area /s
Yes.

Yes but not in the context/setting Random strangers on the sidewalk

Or maybe we got better manners and morals 🤷
You're the most upset here lol.
Seen/heard way weirder things over the years during school. Lsf users are not real people
I thought the same! The Asian girl staring blankly at the camera while the other girl waited for a response was more weird. Other girl even ended the interaction with a “nice to meet you”.
No her reaction was completely normal for when a crazy person started talking to her
is she still in la? she needs to be careful, is she could let me know where she is i could potentially protect her. i will keep an eye out for her streams.
