I once dated someone who told me they saw the Castro go from "being a nice safespace for LGBT to express themselves and hit dance clubs" to "an extremely sterilized techbro space with expensive coffee shops and boutique clothing stores". Haight and Ashbury, and all the other SF enclaves that gave the city its character suffered the same fate according to them.

"I can only hope for more techbros to absolutely suffer. They've completely destroyed the region their microchip country club sits on top of. Underneath all the PCBs, mangled AI hands, patagonia puff jackets and cybertrucks was a rich culture of people- now nearly pushed away or rendered into an inert version of its former self. Outpriced and alienated for craft beer breweries, smartwatches, rent to own apartment homes, vampire weekend and guacamole made with cream cheese."
