Trump-loving San Francisco?
Those Trump-loving tech 'moderates'
Donald Trump is in San Francisco today.
So it was a perfect day for the San Francisco Chronicle to publish my op-ed on how tech's support for Trump underscores the meaninglessness of the word "moderate" in San Francisco politics.

From my op-ed:
In 2021, billionaire tech executive Chamath Palahapitiya briefly considered running for California governor on a moderate-sounding platform of low taxes and school reform. This week, the former Democratic Party megadonor will co-host a fundraiser for convicted felon Donald Trump in Pacific Heights.
In reality, Palahapitiya was neither moderate nor a believer in Democratic Party values. He was a zealot clothed in vaguely centrist branding that obscured a politics so extreme that he’s all-in for Trump 2024. And he’s not the only Silicon Valley plutocrat masking himself with bland labeling.
Can you guess what other right-wing tech figures I'll be talking about in this piece?
Please give my op-ed a read, and please make sure to share it with every San Francisco voter you know!
