The point of SF's progressive movement is to fight back against conservative policies with an example of what progressive politics can accomplish. It's not exactly working out now is it? SF itself is the city where all of the beautiful progressive ideas come together in harmony and make a heavenly place. It is absolutely incorrect in that assessment of itself. Spend 5 minutes at a city council meeting and you will see exactly what I mean. Same thing happens in Oakland. The city spends an awful lot of time commenting on what's going on in conservative areas and passing rules and laws that seemingly address those things but are really just talk. And then they continue to ignore the real problems of crime and homelessness. Oakland and SF love passing support statements for people having issues in other states, but can't get their own Police Departments to even show up to do their jobs. Priorities are entirely wrong.
