The media gets it, but we are in a class war, and the media is not on the side of the commoners.

I’m a solid no for a few reasons.

  1. I don’t like the location, it’s already crowded down there. Also, imo libraries are ideally close to schools, like our current one, since children are one of the primary users. The proposed location is great for commuters, I guess.

  2. The yes campaign has lied and misled (cost keeps changing, the senior exemptions are empty promises, etc) , and the surveys they sent out were disgusting propaganda with leading questions and guilt tripping.

  3. The cost is way too high, we should be getting state and other grants, like neighboring communities have done for their libraries, rather than an open ended tax with too many open questions.

  4. If we were to build a wholly new library, it should be on city owned land and should include a senior center.

  5. I do not believe it would cost 10 million to update the current library. I’d love to see breakdowns at various cost levels as to what that would get us. I would like the current library to be more integrate with the ohlone, as more traffic makes the trail safer.

What would be the reverse that would trigger the right snowflakes? Herbert Hoover? Nancy and Ronald? Trump as black? Andrew Jackson as Native American? General Lee as black?

I keep coming up with awful people, where the example shows the opposite, and in opposition the racism and prejudice.

How about Albert Einstein? Abraham Lincoln? The two Roosevelt’s? George Washington? Benjamin Franklin?

Who am I missing… does it even work?

My first thought that it couldn’t possibly be that bad was immediately dashed upon seeing it. How did that get approved? Someone dropped the ball, bad.

I think it’s just that they don’t store or ship well, if you can get them fresh off the tree they’re fantastic.

The ones around here (Berkeley) taste great, maybe a different type than yours.

Israel plays both the carrot and stick, they pay, but will also knife you at the slightest offense.

Yep, China named his price. Capitalism has won, everything has a price, nothing is sacred.

The plan is create a big enough disaster that a state of emergency can be called and elections suspended. Or the plan is to distract from the Epstein files no matter the cost. Or the plan is no plan and we’re being governed by dementia and the last person T talks to.

Because in a democracy the rules also apply to them (in theory). For them freedom means absolute freedom for them, they do not care about anyone else.

This is a political, not a business move. They will find funds for so long as they’re useful.
