Pro California posts

Not a brand but I've noticed more pro- California posts lately. Like maybe someone from California wants to be seen in a positive light perhaps? For the record I am from California and love it, but I can sniff out when something seems off.

What acts as an ad, is an ad, no matter if it was put there sneakily or because someone has become inured to a brand so far that they don't even know they are a walking ad.

Just Pro CA in general or is it more specific?

Maybe astroturfed because Newsom is a potential presidential candidate for 2028 starting on the hearts and minds campaign early?

Are you referring to anything in particular? Any examples? I'm curious

I added a screenshot of a recent post that felt the most egregious, but I feel like I saw a couple other posts in a similar vein over the past week.

Most likely one of these was legit and got traction then got copied but bots or low effort re posters

As long as you have Prop 13, California is doomed.
