Is it just me, or has the comment section of SFgate been taken over by alt right nut bags?


Does SF have a hardcore closet conservative population?

Or is this rednecks from flyover country obsessed with California?

This. Have you not noticed it happening even on our CA forums lately? It's going to be an antagonistic 4 years. IF the Trainwreck-in-Chief lasts that long.

They have no lives is my guess. I think a lot of very conservative people are attracted to it because it's a San Francisco newspaper (and to many of these people, SF is ground zero for the where the evil heathens are - they must be reminded that they're horrible!!).

The comments there are pretty vulgar, even for the general internet.

I've noticed this too. I think they're mostly paid trolls--could even be posting from Russia.

I think some are closet conservatives. I remember talking with a cop who patrol the area of my old job. He would always complain about having to be a closet republican.

But based off hyper democrat voting paterns, I don't think there are that many. Centrist democrats are conservative for the bay.

I think most don't even live in CA.

Now you see this in the LA times. But LA has way more racial tension. As well as many outlying conservative burbs - particularly in Ventura and South OC. Many zonies who were priced out and are bitter.

I just find it funny, because you never see SF liberals trolling suburban Dallas or Memphis papers. But SG gate comments seem like you are reading a suburban Chicago newspaper.

Keep in mind they are partnered with a houston paper. A lot of sfgate articles are seen there.
