I personally wouldn't have a problem living in a city like SF if crime and homeless were less common

But since this is a literal nightmare in SF, being less "car dependent" or appeasing these whining activists is the least of my concern.

I could give a shit less about "car dependency" if I have to worry about my own personal safety on a regular basis. Expecting people to put their own personal safety on the line to reduce "car dependency" is asinine. If city advocates want people to move to their cities, they should get their shit in check first before even bothering to ask
