I was in SF in February, and took some out of town guests around for the day. I didn’t see a single instance of this. Same for two other times in the last 1.5 years. Now, I didn’t go to the Tenderloin. But if conservatives greatly exaggerate these stories, no one will believe. SF has plenty of real problems without making stuff up.
It’s real. The last time I was in SF, I stayed in Mission/Tenderloin at a boutique hotel. Walking to the exposition, I walked in the middle of the street because the cars were less threatening than the bums and shit.
The streets were washed clean by the rainstorms in Feb.
I was there a few years ago on a business trip. It was disgusting. We parked at a garage by Fishermen’s wharf and the garage was filled with feces. Outside in the allies was full of feces. The only clean spots were at the tourist spots. It was gross and the smell like a Honey Bucket at an August chili cookoff.
Tell ‘San Francisco Standard,’ which has a link to article about poopy Frisco streets in linked article.
In the business section it is disgusting. Pup tents everywhere on the sidewalks next to very high priced commercial real estate. People come out of the pup tents on the sidewalk and pull down their pants and just “go”.
My son and I went to a San Fran Giants baseball game last month. We had lunch at Marlowe restaurant before the game. We walked approx ten city blocks and found a few drugged-out bums and poop on one street. Graffiti was about as bad as it always is in that part of town. The number of vacant stores was about the same as it has always been. The GS Warriors playoff game was going on at the same time, so the streets were full of baseball and basketball fans. All in all, it felt somewhat normal.
The last time I was in the ballpark neighborhood was probably seven to ten years ago. I was blown away by all the new construction in the China Basin district. All the old and once-plentiful parking lots are now condo buildings.

Tyler was never a real person. He was the embodiment of what Jack thought was cool. He was fit, had style, and could talk to girls. The entire time Tyler Durden is a figment of his imagination. He was never real, and he was based off of multiple people/things/ideas.

I haven’t been able to find ANYTHING “REAL” about “Tyler Durden”. Minimally, I think it’s safe to say that he’s no “LEADING CONSERVATIVE” in America and he probably doesn’t even exist.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, I do agree with you that “Conservatives” like “Liberals” do tend to OVERSTATE and HYPE news events!
