Elon is also the target of typical Lockheed style anonymous defamation, like they did with F-35 critics.

The Environmental Suits against Boca Chica aren't accidental. I bet you $10 they are financed - probably via laundering in many firms - by Bezos and Lockheed and Boeing.
Organized retail criminals are making the most of San Francisco’s urban chaos
Even in thrall to schizophrenia or demons or addiction or whatever madness it is that has him sleeping out of doors, this man can get a sandwich anytime he wants. Beer, too, or wine, and toiletries (though those don’t seem to be a top priority at this point in his career), the latest issue of Harper’s, whatever. All he has to do is walk into a store and take it. When I checked in at my hotel, I got a $50 credit at the hotel shop, but this guy does not need American Express — he has a $950 credit at every store in town, because San Francisco has effectively (though not quite formally) decriminalized theft of that amount or less. And the city has shown itself unable or unwilling to prosecute a lot of shoplifting amounting to much, much more than that. What has developed are parallel crime waves: One is good old San Francisco street-level hippie-dirtbag chaos, and the other is organized crime, with packs of shoplifters working for ringleaders and bosses who move the goods through both physical and online distribution networks that turn tens of millions of dollars in profit. There is more to this scene than what you see on San Francisco’s lunatic sidewalks. ...
Enforcing the law on the law-abiding is relatively easy, but enforcing the law on outlaws is hard work. My taxi driver says he thinks it’s stupid that he and his riders are required to be masked at all times even though they are separated by a plastic partition, but he says drivers have been fined and had their licenses threatened for carrying passengers without masks. It’s an easy offense to prosecute, and masking here in this most progressive city is a powerful symbolic and ritualistic issue, a declaration: “We are not red-staters!” even if Elon Musk now is, along with many other Golden State refugees. Arresting shoplifters at Walgreens is a different kind of symbolic issue, and the Powers That Be in San Francisco just won’t do it. ...
For the moment, COVID-19 has given professional shoplifters something very valuable: a mandate to wear masks in public. For years, California maintained a prohibition on public mask-wearing, but that law was overturned after a challenge from Iranian expatriates in California who wished to cover their faces while protesting the abuses of the ayatollahs’ regime. (The University of California at Berkeley has a policy prohibiting the wearing of masks by people for the purpose of “intimidation” — unless the masked parties are affiliated with the university.) ...
An elderly woman operating a small shop in San Francisco’s Chinatown was exasperated by a thief who brazenly stole cellphone accessories and then returned a few hours later to “return” them for cash. She chased him off but a few hours after that he returned again to steal some more. That time, a shopper stopped him. A few hours later, the thief returned once more, but not to steal — he pepper-sprayed the shopkeeper as a warning not to interfere with him again. Others interfering with shoplifters have been beaten, stabbed, and shot. Unless storekeepers are actually murdered, city officials have almost no discernible interest in these cases. There have been few convictions or even prosecutions resulting from them.
This is in a town Wallingford CT where the police were never defunded, and has strict shoplifting laws. msn.com/en-us/news/crime/bra…
Far-left San Francisco DA files homicides charges against officer who shot man who was attacking cops
Posted by: Chris Elliot|November 5, 2021 |CategoriesCaught on Camera, Investigations, Law and Legal, Must Reads, News, Patrol, Politics and Policing
SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Controversial San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin announced murder charges against an officer who shot a man on a noise complaint in 2017.
Boudin alleges that the officer should have de-escalated the situation instead of resorting to deadly force.
Boudin announced manslaughter charges against San Francisco Police Officer Kenneth Cha during the first week in November from the incident which occurred on January 6th of 2017.
What happens when a lot of people want a good—say, housing—that is in short supply? As even elementary schoolers learn, prices go up. Now, what happens when you increase the supply to keep up with the demand?
San Francisco may never know, for, as in many other American cities facing housing crunches, a bloc of local politicians has made it their mission to block any new construction if it fails to satisfy a list of must-haves that could put the most ravenous child’s Christmas list to shame.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA—In a beloved San Fran tradition, stores across the city are holding their annual 100% off Black Friday sale today, offering shoppers the opportunity to come in, throw as much stuff in a bag as they can fit, and run out of the store.
"Come one, come all, and check out these amazing discounts!" said the manager of one San Francisco Walgreens. "You can get makeup, electronics, Takis, sunglasses, you name it—even prescription medications!"
One shopper said she just had to go check out the savings on designer handbags. "Yeah, I don't really like going out in the crowds, but for 100% off, sure. I'll throw on a ski mask and some gloves and grab as many Gucci purses as possible."
What's more, shops across San Francisco are offering an extended return policy on all goods taken from the store during these amazing 100% off bargain sales, so that you can bring that big screen TV back if it doesn't end up fitting or you can't flip it on OfferUp for a tidy profit.
At publishing time, the stores had confirmed they will be holding this sale every day for the foreseeable future, or at least "as long as the Democrats remain in office."

We have this in LA now, personally witnessed the event.
This article is utterly terrifying...
Jessica said her life might seem hard, but it’s actually pretty carefree, and she offered a sweeping explanation of one reason why her mom would face such long odds trying to pull her out of San Francisco.
“The city is way too easy for people with nothing to get by,” she said. “That’s why I’m still here nine years later. You get by with doing drugs and suffer no consequences. I like it here.”
