It's not just Californians, either. We get these liberal New Englanders who move down here because there are less people, the cost of living is cheaper, people are nice & kind... So they think this is a great place. But then they start in with their demands for COVID restrictions and vaccinations, complain about neighborhood Bible study groups, want to be Hitlers about recycling and gas-powered cars... They seem to think that being a Northerner trumps being a Southerner and they want to push everybody around. After awhile, you want to smack them upside the head. Of course, not all New England transplants bleed blue (I have a couple of very conservative friends rom NY), but most of them do.
