Yeah sadly since the Democrats took it in 2016 they have had the ballot printer turned up to 11 for the dems since they really don’t want to cede control over half of the LA Metro after 30 years of work to finally take all of it.

That is probably something I would like to do. Used to do similar with gloves and hats when I lived in the city. But nowadays I'd probably also bring a Big Book and meeting lists with me.

Gee, maybe that could've been useful, like, before Malibu started getting destroyed by flames?

Depends on how bad the loss of life is. It ranges from "really bad" to "oh, fuck, maybe even they didn't actually deserve THAT." It at no point goes down to "bad" or lower.
If they didn't get enough notice, like if tonight the wind shifts and the fires just swoosh into the city abruptly... Which I would like to point out has been a non-zero chance of occuring this entire time and will remain so until the fires are put out... Well, there'd be a sea change in local politics, obviously. Remember, the bugman hives are how they control the entire state. Losing one -- LA is 1/4th the state of California's population -- would hurt. Losing the confidence of the rest of the hives would hurt. The Democrats can't win national elections without California, and without LA, the rest of the state might be enough to flip it from them. They'd do anything they could to solidify control. ANYTHING. You'd have them seriously talking about finding some way of doing state level mass amnesty to make the illegals (as many as they could bring in) citizens, the rest of the country be damned.
If they DID get enough notice, like if they started NOW... evacuations would not go well. Getting that many people out of the city is impossible. Not hard. Impossible. There would be few hundred thousand if not a few million people left behind, there would be rioting and stampedes and road rage. You'd have rampant niggerism the entire time, and people reacting to such. "I can't evacuate, Tyrone is running around in a stolen uhaul looting all the houses in my neighborhood!" "We can't move our cars, Shaniqua is fucking twerking to 'her jam' AGAIN." etc etc.
And even assuming you could get them out of there -- you can't -- the 10 million people in that city would need to go SOMEWHERE. Where? Where would they go? What nearby city could put up even a fraction of those people for any significant length of time? Move them to the next city over? It's on fire too! Move them upstate? Over to Arizona? Portland? Seattle? How do you move even 1 million people across the state in a huge hurry, yet alone 10 million?
And where are those 1-10 million people going to eat? Sleep? Shit? While on the way? Or for the weeks / months / years it would take to recover?
We're talking a humanitarian crisis that the US has never seen before. And that's before you consider LA gang bangers and other "urbanites" fucking up other regions, permanently. Ask Idaho how much fun having a bunch of Californian fuckwits show up and decide to explain to the locals how to run their cities and state is.
Medium to long term, people would not come back. They'd have nothing left to return to, the insurance companies (which would either be refusing to pay out or bankrupt) would be fucking them over as best they could, there simply wouldn't be houses or businesses to return to, et cetera. This brings us back to the left's NEED to have a city like LA to win National Elections. So what do they do?
Maybe some social engineering -- Texas is shipping illegals all over the country to force blue states and cities to eat the shit sandwiches they ordered and expected everyone except them to be stuck eating, maybe they could do something similar with the LA refugees? Send them to red state capitals and flip them -- and the states -- blue forever. You wouldn't need many. Aim for the 7 swing states, Texas, Florida... 10 million refugees? You could completely culturally engineer the country for the next 50-100 years with that, if you organized it right. 500k, 1 million in each state, all voting blue... they wouldn't even need to rig elections afterwards. A quarter million LA Refugees moving to a Soros backed refugee center in Pennsylvania would flip the state permanently blue, Amish be damned.
In any case, California would be milking it for decades. They'd do whatever they could to blame anything other than their own mismanagement. They'd try to rebuild LA as a Green "15 minute" net zero city, I'm sure -- remember, it was CLIMATE CHANGE, not a systemic and constant failure of policy for years that caused this, at least in the mind of the bugman. Think sidewalks but without room for cars, cut into small neighborhoods without the ability to easily go between them. Big BIIIIG apartment buildings for the bugmen. It would fall apart by 2045 or so, basically being one giant ghetto (with parks), but when has reality ever stopped a leftist faggot from trying one of their bright ideas? It's never them that suffer when they fail, after all.
One unspoken thing: Illegals. A loooooot of people in that city aren't supposed to be there and aren't considered with evacuation and other emergency services systems. Imagine if you're getting food and other supplies for a few million people only to find out there's 3-4 million more people than there should be. Imagine going back through an evacuated city ruins, still smoldering, only to find countless immigrant workers were trying to wait out the fire?
Imagine the NGOs with all the sob stories about how it's OUR fault for having borders and shit, all while the media played the footage of the bodies 24x7. Anything to avoid talking about how the fire hydrants were fucking empty (or missing), how they've known forestry management was a huge fucking problem but the local hippie retards wouldn't let them do anything, et cetera et cetera.

Hope any CaliKiwis are ok, contrary to belief not all of California is leftist. I've known a lot of Republicans from the rural parts.
Anyway name a bigger start to the year!

Just because you haven’t had a fire YET doesn’t mean your area isn’t massively at risk. Quite the opposite actually, since pretty much all the state is the type of nature with a “fire cycle”.
Insurance companies WANT customers. They’re dropping you because you’re in danger and your house is in danger. Stop being a delusional cunt just because you don’t wanna hear it.
People who were fat gay chainsmoking alcoholics moaned the same shit about health insurance and now we all pay like crazy because that “wasn’t FAIRRRRRR”

One thing that is also being ignored. California is -way- overdue for a massive Earthquake. Imagine the chaos if that happened in the middle of this?
One can hope....

Agreed. The level of destruction is breathtaking. Rebuilding it is incomprehensible to me.
I was watching a helicopter flyby of Pacific Palisades where they overlaid street names over the top of the destroyed area, so I doom-followed along on Google maps/streetview to see what had been lost. Those were some absolutely beautiful homes and streets of course, but they also had facilities like a sports centre and a baseball field which are completely levelled now. Just nothing to salvage whatsoever. Even in just a very small section of the destroyed area, you can imagine where communities would eat/shop/work/workout/study etc. Everything is just gone.
Even the cleanup seems impossible. Who is going to clean this up and where will the debris be dumped? Logistically it's an absolute nightmare.
The mayor needs to stop saying "unprecedented". She sounds so unconvincing, unprepared, negligent.

No, anything that causes any Californian to leave its state is detrimental to the rest of the us, they need to stay there and die there.

Why is so much money wasted on people trying to kill themselves? There should be a 3 strikes rule. Strike 1 they try to help, Strike 2 you're told another attempt is the end and strike 3 you're left to overdose or whatever way you try to kill yourself.
Isn't LA full of illegals and child traffickers? Surely if you can walk across Mexico to sneak into the US border you can do the same thing to go some where else.

Yup. A nice 7 or even 8 would be quite the fun time right about now. Really cap off the Biden admin.
Although since it's been building up, maybe we'll get a 9 someday soon. I want to hear Razorfist talk about how he could hear the very Earth itself shrug the taint of California off it's back.

If you ever get a combination of massive earthquake and wildfire... there won't be a lot of people -left- to leave California.

This just isn't true. Go buy a house. Recently. Not new construction. Watch how many companies refuse to cover you over the pettiest shit. They want to only insure new construction and are finding reasons to drop anyone else. Why? Because storms in the other side of the country lost them money on claims and so now they fuck everyone over nation wide. You watch, this will trickle down. You want to buy a house in or near the woods? Fire risk! doesn't matter if there aren't fires or small ones somewhere nowhere near you. You'd best get a newly built house by Venezuelans in a HOA community, bud. Or pay cash in full. Banks won't finance you without home insurance.
Go watch home inspectors do new construction inspections. Cyfy on YouTube is a good one. It's such garbage

Insurance companies are actually leaving in droves from California PRECISELY because of Newsome's policy bullshit. As much as I agree that insurance companies can be pretty scummy at the best of times, this time, it isn't their fault.

There does appear to have been an improbable third false alarm
although it could be delayed notifications from the previous false alarms.

It depends what you mean by Malibu. Most of what had burned was a very narrow strip along the Pacific Coast Highway along Las Flores beach - the "Malibu beach homes", which are within Malibu city limits but aren't part of downtown Malibu. It looks like the fire's gotten a lot closer now.
