NIMBY California Democrats

California’s increasingly left-wing residents want open borders, and they want their state to give handouts to immigrants, legal and illegal. But they don’t want any building to house this low-income riffraff anywhere near their expensive homes.

California Democrats’ NIMBY-ism, or “not in my backyard,” is a perfect case study in modern left-wing hypocrisy. Gestures and virtue signaling about tolerance and openness? They’re all for those. But don’t suggest opening the gates to their communities.
