Chapter 1

From A View of the City of San Francisco Under Lurie

Released Nov 30, 2025

Part 1

The City and County of San Francisco has experienced a revival of political energy after the instantiation of the Lurie administration. Reports vary on to whom it is to be attributed, but the administration has seen a decrease in crime, a reduction in obstructions for small businesses, and a notable decrease in corruption. The previous London Breed mayoralty saw a major scandal of corruption and passed laws that many agree obstructed justice. I've been in contact with several people who have seen some of what the administration has done up close or worked in tandem with city administrative agencies, so I am in a worthwhile position to report on some of the happenings.

I was in contact with a person who worked for the City College of San Francisco. They reported on the corruption that took place at the City College. I am also communicating with various politically active and well-informed individuals in San Francisco. These sources will constitute a chunk of what I base my findings on. Throughout this, I will be stating my opinions. I do not make any claim for my opinions giving the unabated or complete story, yet I strive for accuracy.

Political tensions have risen across the United States, and that is no exception in the city. The assassination of Charlie Kirk has not reduced the protestors at places like City Hall, known as Antifa and their cohorts, which require police protection. The city of San Francisco is a very liberal stronghold. There is little tolerance for conservatives. That being said, Daniel Lurie, the new mayor, has captured the attention of several conservative groups in the city, like the Briones association. The administration is committed to a more moderate and reasonable picture of San Francisco.

I suppose I can talk more about my sources. I created a group on Nextdoor in the city for conservatives. Nextdoor is a local neighborhood-focused social media app. That was no more than month ago, and less, and we have over a dozen members. Many of these people are very politically active and well-informed in the city. They present me, along with the other members, nuanced findings. I also stay up-to-date with local occurrences in the city and browse the city's website for new legislation and mayoral activity.

The thing that troubles me about this city, and liberal strongholds, is the division: so heated and without compass. On the post informing my neighborhood of my group, I received no fewer than several replies informing me of their disdain for conservatives, or requesting in no especially polite manner that we leave the city. Most of the replies were at least somewhat intriguing, yet this behavior is disconcerting. One of the wiser replies informed one of these liberals that it is precisely this vitriol from the left that has made them, who is not a friend of conservatives, distance themselves from the left and seek alternative activism channels.
