hi, you should vote in sf
local elections are won by a few hundred votes, which means you can swing the election
sf has ridiculously fixable problems caused by a fringe group that we can vote out
many of you recognize that sf is important, it’s important to you and what you work on, and it’s culture is nowhere else
this is the city where the future is built. in any other city in the world, caring about climate change means posting on the internet. In SF it means building an electric stove. This is the only place in the world where people look at problems dead in the eye and then actually do something about it. The people of sf make life extension drugs, cryogenics, robots, powerful batteries, self-driving vehicles, pass the turing test, and read ancient scrolls. San Francisco is like the driver’s seat of the world.
that culture only gets to exists in the context of good institutions. A small, fringe group has captured sf for years and driven it into the ground: they’ve blocked housing for years, driving up rent prices. They’ve effectively stopped enforcing laws, and let dealers poison and kill thousands of the poorest folks in the city.
in this election we can genuinely fix it. Please vote! Save SF!
