it's not even just political baggage per say, city people and second home owners are coming from a different culture and they rarely if ever try to understand ours before demanding we change it to accommodate them. they want a starbucks, they want a whole foods and a shopping mall, they drive like assholes on a good day and are straight up dangerous once the roads start to get icy. given the choice they'd turn this place into another smoggy strip mall where the foxes don't come out and you can't see the stars anymore; they wouldn't even recognize what they took from us. to them central park is nature and not a big fucking lawn surrounded by noise and dead concrete. i see exactly what all the concentrated wealth and genius managed to do to california and it scares the shit out of me. keep your money, keep your 'culture' and opportunities just please go somewhere else.
