City and State officials don’t care. They’re using woke politics as stepping stones to higher offices. This according to San Francisco Insider interviews.

You can't have a healthy city if you have mentally unhealthy people in charge. And Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Quiz: Which San Franciscan wrote a book with that title?

After 160 years....

The young people and BLM types today think the next 1,000 years will be a woke Dem CCP style workers’ paradise. Like the 1,000 years the Nazis ruled the world.

Let’s stop them.

Well, there’s one city that Bidenskyyy, Gruesom Newsom and Nanzi Pelosi can take credit for totally destroying.

Lease the city to China for ten years.

They will do the work Americans refuse to do.

The plan is working...

* Bankrupt existing small businesses
* Buy premium property for a pittance
* Tear down decaying structure & rebuild smart cities
* Enslave citizens/illegal immigrants in their ‘community’
* Elites live in their mansions

Wish I could buy puts on liberal cities.

Since the mayor and governor don’t care about a formerly world class city becoming a turd world shithole I think it’s obvious there are ulterior motives.

I know! I know! 👋

My dad had that book and read it.

I didn’t read it from cover to cover, but I read good chunks of it when I visited him.

I thought the place was nuts back in the days of Feinstein and Harvey Milk. Never understood all the reverence for it.

* Elites live in their mansions

*************

People should be asking themselves why the elites live so much better than they do. Its not because they are smarter or more productive than the rest of us; most of them cannot perform the simplest of life’s basic tasks.
