You need a reality check.

There is no other part of the US where people leave their cars open so thieves can see there's nothing to steal.

There is no other part of the US where a mob has destroyed an autonomous taxi.

Other than perhaps Manhattan and sections of LA there is no place with higher housing prices.

These are very, very far removed from the rest of the US.

The first point about leaving your car open, people do that everywhere, car break-ins are prevelant across the country.

There are very high housing prices but also high wages, though yes it's worse than a lot of the country as far as inequality. The bay area is more than San Francisco though, have you spent much time in the area? If there were more autonomous Waymo cars in cities this wouldn't be the only time it's happened.

What the actual fuck are you talking about? There is no other city in this nation where people leave their cars open. Not a single one.

You're either trolling or so disconnected from reality it's terrifying.

On the off chance you're just ignorant this is your official notice: the way you live is not normal.

This is one of the most intense responses to a comment I've ever had and I was just mentioning an observation of my life experience lol, I don't understand where you are coming from with this.

Ok, trolling for sure.

There's no way a person could be literate and have access to the Internet and be that ignorant.

Ignorant of what?? The things I see with my eyes and ears in real life? I'm seriously baffled, what the fuck is your deal, I even said you were correct
