Respectfully, as a resident of Oakland CA, I kinda hate this, even as a joke.

Nationally, we're the stand in for conservative fearmongering. But Oakland has big dreams. We're a town with incredible culture and community trying to do the best we can with limited resources in the face of so many oligarchs who just see endless opportunities to kick us while we're down.

Oakland wants to be Wakanda. But most residents feel like we're getting mugged by landlords, then having our shoes swiped while we're bleeding on the concrete by thieves.
