The clip, posted to X on Monday by the three-year-old's father Andrés Wiken, showed the little girl scootering down a sidewalk as homeless people and drug addicts infested the area.
This shit is in literally every city. Does it exist in every street? No. Not even remotely, but there’s absolutely an area or two where they tend to hang out at - outside of shelters, or in areas where police have “permitted” their existence there. Even in San Francisco, there’s like a couple areas that are “bad” but my god y’all act like the entirety of San Francisco is that way…it’s not.
The entire point of your posted article/video is manufactured rage. I would never walk with me and my daughter down one of these streets. They purposely recorded their “innocent, young” daughter to walk down that street so they could film something to manipulate gullible people like you into feeling anger over the state of things, like it’s some simple black and white issue. There’s never any nuance with conservative arguments, there never can be. The drug epidemic is bad due to the rise in Fentanyl in general and that shit is prevalent in many rural counties too, but you don’t see it reported, because there isn’t as big of a concentration of people…it’s not as noticeable. If there was an “easy fix” to the drug epidemic it would have been done decades ago…but it’s not. It’s an insanely complex issue.
You’re missing the entire point. The article is just ragebait. I have no issues with people talking about the problem with the drug epidemic or the problem with homelessness in an attempt to bring to an issue to light. Your article is not intended to do that, and I really hope you realize that.
Your article is not intended to do that, and I really hope you realize that.
I didn’t write it. LOTS of news orgs write articles about it. Direct your rage to them.
Also San Francisco is a shithole and lots of people go there on purpose because of how lax they are with drugs.
I live in a big city. And guess what? We aren’t cool with drugs here, and so we don’t have fucking zombie streets here.
So take up your “complicated issue” shit with the news orgs that report on shit cities like San Fran, and take up you issue with San Francisco for letting it happen.
I’m not the cause of any of it, so I have no idea why you are so pissed at me. Have you written to the news orgs to express your discontent on how “complicated” the issues is?!
I have been directing my “rage” at the article by saying it’s ragebait. I’m annoyed with you because your missing the fact that it’s manufactured rage bait and your feeding into it by spreading it.

Yeeaaaaahhh, you probably do. It’s just not on one of the streets you drive by or you’re just not aware of it. Not every city has a place like the Tenderloin in San Fran, but it’s prevalent in literally every city. Hell, if you check out the American Addiction Center website, San Francisco is actually ranked as one of the cities with the lowest drug use in the nation.

You mean, to all of Lemmy’s 4 readers?! LMAO
The major news orgs have MUCH more reach than fucking Lemmy. Millions of people read them. A Lemmy posting doesn’t do shit compared to that outreach.
Did you write to all the news orgs that write the articles? Because yelling at me won’t stop them from keeping on writing stuff like this that millions will read. lol
You’re just wanting to be enraged by something. How about you get enraged by all the fucking druggies who think drugs are cool?! That’s what leads to this problem.
Fucking potheads and druggies get no sympathy from me. I’m legit laughing at your “rage” towards me. I haven’t done anything to cause this problem. Write to San Francisco mayor to express your rage. lol
Of course. But San Francisco is way worse. Brah, even non-conservatives know how much of a shithole san fran has become.
Are they trying to push a narrative as well? lmao
You’ve never been there, I can tell. lololol

Not only conservative news orgs have written about how bad San Francisco is. You yell at them too? lol

Because Lemmy doesn’t have as many viewers, it’s morally acceptable to contribute to the problem and spread ragebait. Got it.
I don’t think it’s ragebait though. YOU think that. Not me. I don’t have a problem with the article. You do.
Just because you feel something, doesn’t mean everyone else has to.
