All in the name of, but is it real progressivism? I believe Nordic countries have progressive policies and also Singapore and I don't believe they're anywhere near as bad. I've been to San Fran quite a few times, it's a real dump. Nobody wants to live there.

The west coast is out of business and now that money goes to red states like Texas, Florida,and Tennessee. Those places don't have a society full of theives and drug addicts. It will only get worse for the west coast. The glory days for blue states are long gone.

Blaming Covid/post-Covid for SF's problems is not only laughable and amateurish, it's disingenuous.

I was just about to comment the same thing. Glad to see others calling it out.

This part specifically:

"ongoing issues related to work-from-home practices, tech market uncertainty, and the uncouth streets surrounding downtown all of which contribute to lower foot traffic."

So, according to the author, they blame this on WFH policies (which benefits employees a lot and saves companies money) and not drug addicts, looting protected by law, sh*tting in the street, tons of homeless drug addicts & thieves. Since he mentions he lives in the area, I can already imagine what rotten values he defends to reach this conclusion. Maybe go and loot that store before it's gone and tell us later how it went

I'm just surprised that Razer is still in business, though.

Taxing a unit with MacBook Pro-like prices (regardless of specs) on a Windows' system?! Hmm...
