Truly amazing to see SF libs with BLM signs in their windows to start frothing at the mouth demanding the summary execution of the poors
"I have witnessed crime - I gazed from my condo upon the street below where homeless people injected illegal drugs."
Look on the Crimes, ye Lefties, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level asphalt stretch far away.
r/sanfrancisco and r/bayarea are flooded with sensationalist bullshit about crime to terrify the affluent
OMG SHOPLIFTING!!!1!!
A few years ago I stayed with a relative in North Beach. They constantly monitored their exterior surveillance cameras. One night they were on the verge of shitting their pants in fear of a home invasion after seeing a poor person stand near the garage for a minute. Every black person on the street is a robber casing the place, every creak of the floorboards at night is a serial killer breaking in.
When the revolution comes, just get a bunch of poor people to stand outside their houses for a few minutes. They'll die of a heart attack.
im just guessing but do these relatives obsessively consume true crime shows/podcasts
I don't think so. But they definitely consume lots of crime fiction.
Also the A is back :xi-pog:
At least r/bayarea turned on the automod stuff, but the brigaders still come in and vote/gild reactionaries like crazy.
Also it's all Chesa's fault.
My Houston NextDoor feed is just a steady stream of people freaking out over porch pirates.
Like, holy fuck. If it's that big a deal, maybe stop ordering things delivery rather than posting constantly about someone staring into your yard.
and it's the shipper's responsibility if your package gets stolen! for fuck's sake!
Same thing happened in r/Seattle after the shitlib brigade won the city elections: "People are tired of all the crime!" The crime: living in a tent
Most of those "observations" are probably just people getting brainworms from having the media constantly bombard them with sensationalist crime reporting.
"I went to a part of town I don't usually go to and saw a guy in a hoodie standing next to a car looking in."
Not SF related but somewhat relevant. Last time I visited Seattle I walked all over the city for two days and never ran into a single homeless person. Looking at twitter or Reddit you’d think you couldn’t walk a block without stumbling over half a dozen people strung out on heroin.
there are homeless people literally EVERYWHERE in the Bay Area, especially in SF
it's actually that bad
crime has gone up but it's still pretty safe, it's just that the people that live here are spoiled babies who just want to grill and not look at the realities of capitalism
Were you near downtown at all? Last time I visited there were plenty around. Definitely seems like fewer than SF or Portland in my experience, though.
I’m used to walking a lot. The one day I went to Pike Place Market and then wandered over to Silver Platter’s record store before stopping at a Burger King where my friend picked me up.
That area has a bit less of a concentration of homeless folks than others
Oh great, the liberals are disingenuously co-opting the whole "listen to our lived experiences" thing. These people took the worst lessons from BLM.
Satanic Panic 4.0
We're doing the "LISTEN TO CHILDREN!" shit from the 80s and spinning it into another round of gestapo raids on minority communities.
Wasn't this one a reply to a post showing a Burberrys with plywood on the windows lol
“Hmm, could the rise in low level shoplifting be caused by a lack of income? NO! It’s the magical shoplifting bill that is to blame”
Also I guarantee the amount of shoplifting in rural California is higher like usual but since there’s no cops out there no one reports it.
