They think Portland was burnt to the ground, they think Chicago, New York, LA, San Francisco, are war zones where everyone is shooting each other and gangs of black youths are patrolling the streets murdering and raping white women.

They think all of this unironically

Levi’s Stadium is in Santa Clara, not San Francisco. So weird, because it’s a good 45 minute drive from SF.

I was in SF last year for a 9ers game (stayed in San Mateo, did a bunch of touristy stuff in SF and of course the actual game was in Santa Clara). Some homeless people digging through the trash in Portsmouth Square Park. I think someone tried to break into our Airbnb, too. But, I never really felt unsafe. It’s not really any worse than most any other big city in the US. Kinda run down, seems like it could use some TLC, but that’s true of most American cities. And of course everything is stupid expensive.

The worst part was the traffic, imo. We used Caltrain and I think Bart? Idk, it was confusing. And expensive. And slow. But we also did a fair amount of driving, and driving around SF is like my own personal hell. To be fair, though, I generally hate driving in any major US city. But I think SF is worse than most.

SF isn’t terrible, but it ain’t great, either.
