...I don’t know how you sell the other 90% of units in a place where 10% is set aside for the idle criminal underclass (of any color).

You can't. That's why almost all public housing areas are $h!tholes. The exception being those for seniors and the disabled.

I think everybody with a home worth more than $2m in SF should have to give their home to a black person. And then help them pay for the property taxes each year.

>>>>>>the descendants of coolies that settled in SF when working on the rail roads and in mines to pay this off<<<<<<

Precisely.

In college, the subject of Native American Reparations came up. I raised my hand and asked if my heavily diluted amount of native american dna would get me excluded. I then went on to ask if my native american dna could just forgive the dna of the other side of the family that slaughtered a few dozen people living in what is now Shelter Cove CA to build a really nice settlement the Scottish psychos enjoyed and we call it a day?

As the professor stammered for a response, I added that maybe the best reparations made would be to make certain nobody gets screwed over because of dna again. Most of the class nodded — the professor went into some horseshit about unusual circumstances should not set overall policy...

Of course it will affect you.

1. San Francisco will receive federal funds for this.

2. As California goes, so goes the nation. Or at least the blue areas. Black activists in Atlanta, Houston, St. Louis, Chicago, New York City, Boston, Minneapolis, Baltimore, Seattle, Portland, etc. will all have their expectations raised by this.

Reparations, coming to a city near you.

Can I identify as being black?

They already thought of that. You must have identified as black for at least ten years before the passage of reparations.

Didn’t they steal the land from others, who were there before them?

It would be cheaper to nuke San Francisco.

These aren’t public housing areas, but I suspect they will resemble them. The developers have to pay their reparations and set aside 10% of the units for “victims” (who will chase out the other 90%).

If you’re going to San Francisco...
Don’t. If you’re there, leave.
Especially if you’re a long-time black resident. This will end badly.

Thats actually a new criteria proposed by the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis board that has set aside 44 cannabis business licenses to meet their new DEI goals.

Fairly certain that the “indigenous” people found by the European explorers, pioneers, and settlers had a free run on this space when they used the Bering ice bridge to find decent hunting grounds 20,000 years ago.
