SF is not only reliably D it is overwhelmingly D.

They have not had an R in the mayors office since late 60s or early 70s...

And yet parents overwhelmingly voting to recall the 3 school board members is due to the right wing.

There are not enough Rs in that area to overturn anything. CNN likes to pretend otherwise. The people who voted to recall were overwhelmingly D.

But CNN has a different spin.

San Francisco school board recall sends a dangerous message | CNN

While the results in San Francisco school board recall may resist simple analysis, the politics swirling around the recall tell us something important about a process underway across the country - and the long history of 'parents' rights' rhetoric, writes Nicole Hemmer.

Not blockading traffic, not engaged in violence, just peacefully protesting. What a difference two years makes, huh? Remember when Trudeau said burning churches was understandable?

After two weeks of disturbing the peace, they wore out the patience of the majority.

This is what eventually happens to minority movements based on being annoying. They give you some space to make a fool of yourself. Then, when you have everyone good and mad at you, they come in and remove the trash.

Seattle took longer to do it, but it’s the same concept.

It's amazing how left wing policies has turned SF into a complete shit hole, yet GoldenGate and NocalDad continue to be staunch supporters of the D's. Reality seems lost on them. In general reality seems lost on most Dems. Some are seeing the light, but that's generally due to them evaluating their reelection chances and not a good faith change of heart.

The corruption, incompetence and abuse of power keeps on coming for SF.

San Francisco rape controversy will have a chilling effect | CNN

If rape survivors believe that the evidence collected in their rape kits could be used against them, that's one more reason on an already-long list to not trust the criminal justice system -- or seek justice at all, argues Jill Filipovic.

One of the things I find interesting is the misogynistic, or anti-women, tendencies of the left. That doesn't seem very woke.

So is it the left or the right that is trying to end the practice of using rape-kit DNA as evidence to solve other crimes?

(Full disclosure -- that is a Socratic question)

The left’s misogyny problem is not that they themselves are misogynistic. It’s that their world view explodes when one oppressed group oppresses another. They’re stuck listening to rap music on the way to a Me Too rally.

The right has a similar problem. They have 50 years experience talking about law and order. Then someone gathers a mob to attack the capitol building. Logically, they all should be chanting “Lock Him Up!”, but they can’t.

It leaves both fringes looking pretty ridiculous.

The majority needed those parking spots that badly? It was Trudeau's patience that wore thin due to his own inability to exercise leadership, and instead had to invoke martial law.

You can't remotely compare Seattle to Canada. People were getting killed in Seattle, violence and crime was rampant. There was no cause involved other than anarchy.

More power to them for exercising their freedoms. I hope they continue to do so. But better than them exercising their freedoms, is parents exercising their freedom to vote in November. The writing is already on wall as we saw in the SF recall.

The “SF recall” wasn’t about what you want it to be about and doesn’t mean what you think it does.

The big difference is the right and lefts response to their riots. The right mostly condemned the siege on Congress, whereas the left remained mostly silent or actually supported the actions of the "summer of love" rioters.

The right has universally condemned the siege on the capitol except for the most diehard Trumpsters like MTG. And those that did it are being prosecuted for doing so. They weren't mainstream Republicans they were idiots that were following a false prophet. (Unfortunately there are some on the right like Graham that has since softened their stance on Trump. I wish the party would kick Trump to the curb. Just because he can win is not a valid reason for supporting him.)

As opposed to the left and its media that supported the rioters or didn't call them out. Recall Chris Coumo that said "And please, show me where it says protesters are supposed to be polite and peaceful." Kamala paid bail for some of the rioters.

Neither side can take the high road for the events that happened, but the responses to those events are light years different.

Like clockwork there is that denial of reality.

Enlighten me. What do I think it means and what was it really about?

It was absolutely about parents taking back power because of policies implemented by misguided school officials that were more concerned about woke agendas and power than the welfare of children. Was it just about masks? No. Was it just about the renaming of schools? No. Was it just about the elimination of advanced educational opportunities based on merit? No. Was it just about discrimination against Asians? No. Was it just about school closures? No. It was all those things.

It was not about right or left it was about children and their parents. For fucks sake the recall vote was as high as 79% in favor of recall. That's a referendum like no other.

Your attempts at revisionist history (and present) are silly at best.

Progressives vote for progressives but when they don’t do a good job progressives do something about it . . . Republicans make Demi-gods out of their incompetents.
