The problem is that the people in SF are doing things that many people find divisive and dumb. But the same people are seen as in control of media, universities, tech etc - things that impact everyone. If you’re in Johnson City, KS, this happening in your country feels like it impacts you even if it’s in a hyper liberal enclave.

How does the SF school board have anything to do with the media? This seems like really digging hard for something to be mad about.

It doesn’t, directly. But if you’re far away from SF and all you see is this headline, it reads as “the ruling class did some dumb woke stuff again”. How can you respect them? How can you be confident the wokeness won’t spread?
