With all their ideas, billions, power and influence, the thing that stings the most for the SF plutocrats is that at the end of the day they couldn't beat a few hundred acid damaged hippies for control or win hearts and minds of a singe city. They failed.

An astonishing and embarrassing defeat.

They can't lead so they seethe, sow division, deflect, and finally dream up fantastical escape hatches, someplace new and safe where they can be free from all bogies, someplace they can escape their own failure. 

This time will be different, right?

No, woke.

Remember, tech immigrants can’t vote!

It was white leftists that destroyed San Francisco. They got billions for their NGOs by addicting poor people to drugs. And they didn’t defeat the Internet anymore than Detroit defeated cars.

They just ruined a city and blamed it on immigrant programmers.

Why do you keep calling capitalist Democrats "leftists" ... They are all 100% capitalist. The left also criticizes them for being ineffective. The reason they're ineffective is they say they care about things like homelessness but then they keep giving more money to authoritarian police and corporate developers. Homelessness is spiking because capitalism is failing as a system for humanity, it's not working for millions of people. Housing costs are skyrocketing, millions are being bankrupted by medical debt because of the capitalist medical system, and so on. Not one of those problems is caused by the left in any way, and neither will they be solved by capitalists who are, again, causing these problems.
