In the San Francisco Bay Area, we're at the breaking point: It's not just the COVID restrictions, It's also the complete breakdown of civil society.

After two solid years of COVID restrictions, many of us have reached a breaking point. Witness the mass exodus to other states from sunny California. Who wouldn't want to get out of here, away from this strangling, prison-like "reality"?

Malaise is now spreading throughout the country, as a direct result of Biden's mass migration. How do you know that your chosen destination hasn't been set upon by a horde of unknown, unemployed migrants? This makes moving elsewhere less attractive. You can't know what you'll find when you get there, but it might be just as bad — or if clandestine flights continue, will be soon. Moving to the south of Texas or Arizona is certainly no longer attractive. You must pity the people stuck dealing with the relentless and dangerous influx.

Locally, as of yesterday, I've become an Untouchable. I can no longer eat in a restaurant in any of the communities surrounding my home, or legally enter my gym, attend a concert, go to a museum, or do anything that enriches life beyond the bare bones of going shopping for food or goods or taking a walk outdoors. Why? Because I refuse to carry or show a "vaccine passport" or share my "status."

Locally, life's miseries keep piling up, beyond the COVID BS. I'm angry, worn down by living in such disharmony. Around here, despite 10% sales tax, sky-high income tax and property taxes, we have terrible schools with an openly CRT curriculum, children masked for no reason, and, if a suit hadn't just been won against it, they'd be forced to take the jab. In my town, 97% of them already have, with parents oblivious to the potential harm. What's going to be the long-term result? How much chronic illness and death will it cause?

I’m in the SF Bay area, one of the very few who was actually born & raised here. Immigration has turned this place into a weird Caste-like shiitehole. San Jose, in particular — the only city in the whole country requiring gun owners to have liability insurance.

Even my very liberal relatives left there over 5 years ago, don’t normal people have any common sense these days? You’ll never have the numbers to vote the commies out, you have to leave if you want a decent life.

I traveled to Central Ohio last week. Once away from the TSA nazi’s at the airport the rest of the people I was around were all normal. I masks, no proof of Covid exposure, just regular life. Saw one elderly lady 75+ wearing a mask, good for her. No one else. -2F was a shocker!

Sounds kind of like living in the USSR or one of it's satellite states during the cold war.

This is exactly what the leftist fascists want. This is also why they will never voluntarily give it up. We are going to have to take back our freedoms.

Yep, they voted for all this, no sympathy for them whatsoever. Their solution will be to keep voting for the same crap because they are insane.

The author is a liar.

Nobody pays any attention to the legal restrictions, anywhere.

Like Escape from NY and the sequel Escape from LA, we need to build a wall around San Francisco and force them to stay and live in what they voted for.

Like a puppy that simply will not learn until you grab it by the scruff of the neck and rub its nose in its own chit, Leftists must be made to face the consequences of what they voted for before they will finally learn something.

Mankind for thousands of years figured out how to interact with others, work together for the benefit of the group. But NO the woke Libs are smarter about human interactions. Well woke Libs your experiment failed, clean up your own mess!

And yet they will never see the connection between their voting patterns and their quality of life.

That’s what happens when you don’t require people to take responsibility for their actions.

When you keep voting for ‘radical new ideas’ you get what you asked for....they’re not new, neither are the consequences.

“voting” is a quaint old term....I doubt if any or our votes really count.

Give China a five year lease on the big cities.

Might as well, they’re already the owners of millions of acres of U.S. farmland!

SO, you can assure me that I can go and eat in a nice restaurant in San Francisco or watch a Warriors game and no one will ask me for my vaccine passport?

You don’t want to be a Christian in China. They put believers in jail.
.............................................
I strongly suspect there are large numbers of Christians in China who are not in jail and not threatened with prosecution unless they overtly call attention to their religious activities.
