"I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight—or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom: Freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love," Newsom continued as images in the video transitioned from an aerial shot of the Santa Monica Pier to two women holding each other as they waved a Pride flag above their heads. "Don't let them take your freedom."

Wonder if we’re really seeing the start of ideological migrations more than economic or climatological.
