I'm one of the co-founders of an organization mentioned in the article, GrowSF. We focus on common sense outcomes, not political posturing or national progressive rhetoric. The author makes the classic mistake of cynically dismissing the hard work required from regular people to make a difference. And to cast a centrist organization like GrowSF as part of some secret cabal is both lazy and irresponsible journalism.
If anyone has any questions about GrowSF, feel free to ask!
- jaredklewis 1y agoThanks for everything you do! I love the data driven approach. I wish basic economics and effective governance had the same tribal magnetism as the culture war issues do.
- teachrdan 1y agoIt stands to reason that the biggest funders of an organization have the most influence over it. Who are GrowSF's biggest funders? How much money have they given?
- teachrdan 1y ago> If anyone has any questions about GrowSF, feel free to ask! Then crickets when they're asked who funds their multi-million dollar campaigns. "Ask me anything! Except who I answer to!" GrowSF is a front group for wealthy developers and landlords, as well as right wing silicon valley billionaires.
