   Oh look, the @sfstandard also is getting into the "take a quiz to see which candidate you match with" game (competing with the @sfchronicle ).

   And ... I can't complete their quiz. "In addition to hiring more police officers" ... and I'm done on this question. I don't want to hire more police officers. I'm not ACAB like a lot of Mastodon, but I want a drastically revamped, mostly unarmed, police force.

     I mean, yes. But the @sfstandard quiz thinks only one of these can be done. Fucking BOTH you dimwits. One of the most frustrating things about being YIMBY is that the discourse is always one or the other, and that some people think YIMBY means only the market rate part (there's leftists who think that of us pejoratively, and libertarian types who think that approvingly).

     There's three more questions where either the premise is wrong, the answer is not one thing, or the answer is none of the above.

     @christa @scott You aren't wrong. This is why I don't want to vote for ANY of them, though I understand and am considering Scott's anyone-but-Farrell voting recommendation.

     @kingrat @sfstandard @sfchronicle so blatant in telling us what to think. Ugh

     @scott @kingrat @sfstandard I mean fwiw no candidates are giving us non policing options. I’m annoyed by the question and it accurately reflects the mayoral candidate positions
