A San Francisco tech executive has branded the downtown area 'dystopian' after she walked past 'hundreds' of homeless people.

Michelle Tandler, 37, shared a picture from her Saturday night trip to a bar in the wilting Democrat-run city.

I will never understand the mind of a socialist/progressive/liberal/communist—never.

It’s incredible what lefties will put up with in order to not have to admit they were wrong.

First time I went to SF from my home on the East Coast was 1966. Last time was 2018.

I can hack the homeless, and the drug addicts.

It’s the threatening psychotics that bother me the most.

Folks,

Take some time to read the article and look at the pictures.

How do you help people?

One thing I know for sure it takes individuals, not govt programs to help people.

Well you know it’s possible to be empathetic to the struggles of some people without totally being stupid. Unfortunately the Left hasn’t learned that lesson yet. They are just not in touch with the realities of human nature.

She's lucky to be alive.

An animal will not poop in its own home. These creatures don’t have the dignity of my pet dog.

I left my drugs
in San Francisco
High on a hill
They call to me
To be where
Little EV cars
Get hijacked at the bars
The smell of poop may fill the air
I don’t care

This is wonderful news. The people most responsible for creating this disaster will pay the price. The tech industry is near universal leftist in the Bay Area. They deserve this.

And I thought it was dystopian when I was in downtown SF thirty years ago and I saw “cowboys” sauntering down the sidewalk in assless chaps.

There are probably still beautiful spots there but it’s getting harder and harder to avoid spots like this as this naive exec found out.

My first trip to SF was in 1973, most recent was 2014. The decline was evident, especially over the last decade when I was at a conference in the middle of town in a “very nice” area.

Michelle Tandler is most likely a registered Democrat.
