Progressive Tom Steyer takes the lead in the California governor race.

15. Can you explain / give evidence for these statements?

You said: "Then all the actual real-life dirty tricks Steyer has pulled to gain wealth are overlooked, but anyone who dared to give speeches is cancelled. It’s quite a show."

Who was cancelled just because they "dared to give speeches"?

I'd be interested in links to credible sources describing the "dirty tricks" you mention. If it is just, "he ran a hedge fund and hedge funds are evil" .... well I'm partly with you there but he exited that in 2012. I don't begrudge people for being wealthy, and I'm sometimes willing to overlook past behavior, if it is long enough in the past, and depending how awful it was vs. for example just being 'go with the flow, follow the mainstream path'.

I'm not in CA and my opinion in the Gov race doesn't matter, except that in general I don't think we should automatically write Steyer off for being a billionaire. It depends on how he is living and using his wealth NOW. Which on the surface seems okay - but you may have good sources, and I am interested to see them.
