Elon Musk is encouraging people to move to San Francisco and work there because he says the "city can't survive" unless it overcomes the urban doom loop.

The billionaire owner of Twitter tweeted on Monday that it was "important for more people to come to work in San Francisco or the rest of the city can't survive."

Musk recently had the Twitter sign removed from Twitter's headquarters in San Fransisco. The company recently changed its logo to X, and a giant sign was put on top of the building that has irritated some neighbors.

How about instead of whining about San Francisco being bad you guys move there and vote in the right people?

I can admire Elon Musk's enthusiasm but the best thing to do is to relocate X's headquarters to Austin, TX.

SF is dead already and I don’t care.

I’m failing to see the problem. San Francisco needs to die.

Good luck with that. It’s a cesspool.

Taxes too high. MUCH too woke. It’s ruled by radical leftists. I would never live or work there.

Let it struggle.

It’s earned the dishonor.

“The company recently changed its logo to X, and a giant sign was put on top of the building that ...” the City has now fined the company for, and billed them for the necessary Building Permits that weren’t filed.

So, here’s shriveled, dying, gasping SF — City and county of — biting the hand of the one guy with the most money, who has now openly aired his commitment to remain in, and keep his company in, SF. He’s saying he’s an ally, yet they’re doubling down on their stupidity and treating him like an enemy.

If that’s not a microcosm of everything wrong with SF City Hall...

It would be wiser for Musk to move out of San Francisco.

Who wants to work and / or raise a family where they may encounter piles of used needles, piles of poop, people having sex in public, etc.? Many of the people living there would probably like to leave if they could afford it.

Ok, Elon. Which parking garages in San Francisco would you consider ‘safe’ in case someone has to work till 2AM?
Well? We’re waiting.

If you are White or Asian, traveling by BART Train has become another high risk event.
The homeless, the hopeless and the hapless have been allowed to invade every public corner of that town.

the “city can’t survive” unless it overcomes the urban doom loop. The city is in a doom loop, so why would anyone move there? For people to move there, there needs to be a complete house cleaning in city hall and in Sacramento.

I have a cousin that lives there because she loves the city. She has been there since 1985.

Elon is painfully out of touch with reality.
