I think the label is tongue in cheek. You would agree that San Francisco has the most "progressive" policies of any American city, and therefore if there was a "progressive utopia", SF would be the closest to it?
- stormbrew 5y agoI can't honestly say that I know enough about enough American cities to know if I agree with that, but I would honestly be pretty surprised if there aren't any American cities that rate better on the things I listed, in part or on whole. As another person in this thread mentioned I think the one exceptional standout is LGBT issues, and even that's largely because of a motivated local queer community and even then it's also the city where Harvey Milk was shot.
