    The high status leftist political culture of San Francisco is the biggest cultural joke in the country.

      It is sad.

      I'm glad I have spent some time in that area because I probably never will again.

        Long ago, it was understood that this kind of thing undermines a civilized society. People like order whether it is communist China or a suburb in Maryland. Reasoned arguments against such behavior don't typically work as effectively as a more direct intervention and adverse consequences.

                Think I read where 40% of the city's citizens want to leave...

                  And it's not some RWEC polling site, it's the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce:

                  https://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2021/06/30/poll-san-francisco-residents-consider-relocating-as-crime-worsen-quality-of-life-in-a-decline/

                  As San Francisco tries to bounce back from the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, crime and homelessness now rank among the highest levels of concerns among local residents, many who are contemplating relocating, according to a new poll.

                  The poll was released by the SF Chamber of Commerce and based on feedback from more than 500 San Francisco residents who are registered to vote.

                  It found that more than 40 percent say they plan to move out of the city in the next few years.

                  Lindsay Stevens just finished moving out over the weekend.

                  “There’s nothing worse than seeing such a beautiful place in such disarray, and I really thought I was going to be sad when the movers loaded up the last container on Saturday, and I have never been more relieved,” said Stevens.

                  After more than 12 years in San Francisco, Stevens recently sold her place and moved to the Palm Springs area.

                    I was in San Francisco a few weeks ago. Lots of homeless downtown but other neighborhoods didn’t seem that bad. I was expecting it to be worse than LA, and though my recent experiences with both cities was far from thorough, it didn’t seem to be. At least the nice neighborhoods still seemed nice.

                    Only non-witches get due process.

                      @jon-nyc did you have the SnapCrap app installed on your phone?

                      Snapcrap, an app that looks and works just like Snapchat—only instead of sending bathroom selfies to your friends or whatever, you can DM photos of dookie straight to the local government.

                          Anybody invested in the social justice narrative and the righteousness of riots and neighborhood takeovers would disagree. Which is to say, any of the millions and millions of mainstream progressives would disagree.

                          Not that they would stick to that priority if disorder ever hit them in their own white upper class neighborhoods... but it mostly hasn't yet. They still proudly espouse a belief system that is free of any personal sacrifice.

                                      I don't quite understand why these thieves aren't stopped. Is the security service not allowed to stop them?

                                        That's right.

                                        And in San Francisco, taking less than $950 is a misdemeanor, which will probably never see the inside of a courtroom. In Chicago, it's $1000.

                                        Assuming a cop arrests you, of course.

                                          Stop them how? You say that like there's an ultimate authority of stoppage. You'd be right, in a society where the police were allowed to do their jobs. That is not the society those crimes are taking place in.

                                          Education is extremely important.
