TikTok and Chinese apps in general are having a tough day. While nothing malicious has been conclusively shown—save for iOS pasteboard spying which it seems EVERY app is doing—I suspect that this is a geo-strategic move by the US and our Allies to dominate and flex economic power over China.

>>>No other American city has built as much affordable housing per capita, according to the Bay Area Council Economic Institute. From 2004 to 2014, the city spent $2 billion on nearly 3,000 new units of permanent supportive housing.
You’re conflating addressing “housing transience” with addressing “addiction, mental illness, and criminal antisocial behavior”. Additional housing units don’t resolve this problem.

So it is society to blame for one’s decision to not be employed, be addicted to intoxicants, and behave feral? The grandiose entitlement certainly is real.

An excellent article that beautifully summarizes the frustration of many residents and highlights obvious policy solutions to address them, such as Proposition Q.
>>>Providing the mentally ill with the “liberty” to decompose on the streets is cruelty, not compassion.
The policies employed by Breed’s government misuse resources in a quixotic effort at fighting addiction by providing more means to be addicted. The “need more housing zoning” argument is absurd and employs a fallacious premise that homeless people need to be housed in-situ.
This article provides great relief for residents, homeless folks, and drug-dealing scum.

Your point side-steps the social responsibility of lifting drug-addicted and mentally-disadvantaged victims of so-called “social Darwinism” out of their state of despair. The case made by the article for social change is rock solid and borne out by a quick walk through the TL.

It’s not. Just a straw man argument avoiding the deeper truths which the article is exposing and the commenter is disinclined to admit.

“ many Parisians began to see sex everywhere they looked. Encounters premised on these forms of sexual knowledge created a new sexual public.”
Oh my, another reverse sexist propaganda piece written by a sophomore at Wellesley.
