Florida first
I get what you’re doing, but let’s not give trump an excuse to bomb California… Could have gone with Louisiana or Florida
Even Iran doesn’t want those states.
Straight of hormuz… Mississippi River Delta…
Iran’s morality police would shit themselves if they walked down any of California’s beaches or anywhere in the blade.
Before or after the furious masturbation?
Yes.
Surely Alabama would have been a better fit?
Alabama wouldn’t put up with all those Muslims like California will. \s
That’s fine, let’s set up a date and let them fight it out
YES
That’s actually kind of funny
Fair enough.
“Gee I wonder what the comments will be like?”
Looks at thread:
Ah, stay classy lemmy liberals.
Most of the comments are from Hexbears and their alts or “lol good shitpost”
Kind of making it obvious you’re working from a script
Ah you’ve identified we’re all Sino-Russian fifth-columnist deep cover agents! Now I won’t get my monthly xibucks check. Darn!

When i was a kid I used to watch movies about the cold war and wonder if how someone could get themselves so worked up about these red commie infiltrators, and if they knew how silly they looked.
my fellow Californians yearn for freedom
California declares independence from Iran
I don’t think the former Iranians in the area would be happy about that.
wtf is with outsiders infatuation with California. we mind our business and want nothing to do with the outside. leave us the hell alone. damn.
U srs?
I knew an exchange student in high school who told me the terrain and climate is mostly the same, which tracks since we’re at almost the same latitude
Maybe they should visit first…
I mean, it is literally the Land of the Caliph.
