In the minds of SF folks, covid policies came to represent resistance to Trump. Those asking for schools and businesses to be opened sounded like the MAGA crowd -- i.e. the Enemy. The policymakers, blind with agenda, doubled down on restrictive policies, with a faulty theory of "everything will come back". The result is a city that works for neither the rich nor poor. SF truly is a social experiment and more capable minds than me may some day cast these events into a coherent social theory.
