Brazen Drug Dealing & Fentanyl Use Witnessed At Official But Illegal San Francisco Homeless “Linkage Center”
I don’t generally agree with Michael Shellenberger on these issues (although he is interesting in his advocacy of nuclear power), but his ongoing reporting on the conflict between bourgie-normie liberal-yuppie-gentrifiers and the woke Left in the Bay Area is unintentionally hilarious.
