Of course San Francisco’s transgender guaranteed income program is also racist

You may think San Francisco’s guaranteed income program for transgender residents is a waste of taxpayer dollars, and you would be correct. But, of course, the program is also racist.
Documents obtained by public records requests show that the program “will prioritize enrollment and retention of [black, indigenous people of color] trans and nonbinary people who also engage in survival sex trades, living with disabilities, elders, living with HIV/AIDS, undocumented, monolingual Spanish speakers, formerly incarcerated, and unhoused and marginally housed.” Listed quotas include that 30% of recipients are “black trans women” and another 20% are “Latinx trans women.”
In other words, San Francisco is paying money to transgender people for existing, and they will prioritize paying prostitutes, illegal immigrants, and former criminals and have to hit quotas based on skin color to boot. Nothing says that you’re a serious city quite like forcing taxpayers to give money to transgender prostitutes who have the Democratic Party’s approved levels of melanin.
In the meantime, San Francisco has real problems that city leaders are either doing nothing or failing miserably to solve. Retail businesses are fleeing downtown San Francisco in droves over crime. The city just approved “by far the most expensive homeless response” it has, spending five times the cost of a one-bedroom apartment on each parking spot for homeless people’s RVs. Fentanyl deaths are on pace for a record high, with a possibility that the city will see 800 overdose deaths just this year.
Much like San Francisco’s attempt to use the money of taxpayers who never owned slaves to pay reparations for black residents who never experienced slavery, this is little more than an excuse by the city to funnel money toward societally privileged groups that liberals like. It is racist, a waste of money, and a kick to the face of the city’s nonprivileged taxpayers who have to watch other people get money for existing while they step over homeless feces and overdosing addicts and try to avoid getting robbed trying to go about their everyday lives.
