That’s like saying “Communism works, we just had a few bad apples”.
San Francisco has been electing progressives from top to bottom since forever. They identify themselves, run and get elected as progressives, they implement policies and get re-elected, so they are progressives.
Not taking responsibility is something progressives also are known for :)
- edmcnulty101 5y ago> Not taking responsibility is something progressives also are known for Yeah it's strange how it hasnt had a conservative mayor in power since the 50's and city council has been solidly blue for God knows how long. And people are claiming it's not progressive?
- skrebbel 5y agoI think with "very much not a progressive utopia", GP was particularly referring to the "utopia" part of the argument. I don't think anyone is denying that SF is progressive, especially for US standards. But it's also just badly run, and there's plenty evidence across the world that "progressive" doesn't need to imply "badly run".
