Why do so many conservatives in the US bash on California all the time?

They weren't going to be powerhouses regardless, but yes, voting for Republicans is fucking their economies. But there's nothing thats going to make Des Moines the San Francisco of the plains, nor Cincinnati the San Diego of the Midwest . The great lakes region is slowly rebuilding from the catastrophic loss of manufacturing. Coal isn't coming back and there's not much else for money in west Virginia.
Some of these cities might rise again someday, but there's a reason people dream of the west coast and not Minneapolis or Chicagoland (though Chicagoland does rock, and so do Cleveland and Minnesota)
its most like the vicinity of Ports which have the greatest economic value, you arnt getting that a middle of nowhere state. plus other things like arable land for farming, the climate, the jobs.

A majority of them have never even been to California yet they seem to talk about it/bash it non-stop.
They hate us cause they ain’t us
