1) I don’t know what “aggressive political rhetoric” is, but it comes off as being dismissive of political opinions you disagree with

2) SF the city is a small part of the SF Bay Area. There are lots of black folks living near SF

3) Be very careful making projections about racism from your experience of Atlanta. Atlanta is the catch basin for successful black business for a large fraction of the south. I was born in Atlanta, and was really surprised when people would describe the south as racist, because my experience of race in Atlanta was so positive. But you don’t have to get very far out of the city to experience poorly concealed racism.
