America’s Shadow Self: California from a symbol of progress to a cautionary tale
- coder4life 4y agoEh. People love to bag California; didn't this article say they're now eqv. to Germany, and if they were a nation to themselves, they'd be in the G4? So what's cautionary about that? When I lived there the brag was we'd take over France's position in the G7 if a separate nation. Are there any other states doing as well economically? That's right, silence is the answer.
- stubybubs 4y agoShades of that Atlantic article about how SF was a failed city and celebrating the recall of the DA. Everything in it was debunked talking points even before the article was published: https://applieddivinitystudies.com/sf-crime-2/ https://applieddivinitystudies.com/sf-crime-2/ Inevitably, the dire stats are devoid of comparisons to other states, or not scaled for population etc.
