preface
What is a top star? Eason Chen is definitely one, recently, his speech at a concert in San Francisco, USA, was put on the hot search.
The reason is that since San Francisco opened up to drug legalization, many Americans have no intention of working and have taken drugs on the streets. The scene is comparable to an American zombie blockbuster.
Eason Chan even said that he was afraid to walk the streets of San Francisco because the streets were full of unprocessed feces. Luckily, I was only in San Francisco for a few days, otherwise I would have been scared every day. He even boldly imitated the form and movement of drug addicts at the concert.
As soon as the remarks came out, they immediately aroused heated discussions among netizens, and some people expressed concern about Eason Chen's remarks, afraid that the United States would pull Eason Chen into their blacklist, after all, people are big countries, and they also want face and image.
Some netizens said: Eason Chen is a lonely brave, and there is nothing wrong with saying this.
In fact, Eason Chen is not the first star to complain about the current atmosphere of San Francisco, Tesla founder Musk has said: San Francisco's downtown looks like the end of the world, and people who have not been there do not know.
Many local residents who do not take drugs also express anger and sadness, and a parent of a young child said: Every day when taking their children to the amusement park, they will see many people who smoke "fentanyl" drugs, which seriously affects the order of life and the city.
In the eyes of our countrymen, what comes to mind when we think of San Francisco before?
Silicon Valley, Apple, Stanford, Facebook, etc., big business and prestigious universities. But this is before, since September 4, 2018, when the mayor of San Francisco publicly supported the construction of a "safe drug injection station" in San Francisco, San Francisco has become a zombie city.
Since 19 years, there have been deaths due to drug overdoses, and in 2020, more than 700 people died due to drug use. I thought this was the pinnacle, but I didn't expect this to be just the beginning.
January 2023 to September 30, 2023. San Francisco has 671 deaths from drug use, and experts predict the death toll this year is expected to exceed the 2020 death.
For the United States, San Francisco is just a microcosm of the environment, and why it is necessary to build a "safe drug injection station" is actually a last resort for the government.
Data shows that from 2021 to 2022 alone, the number of drug deaths in the United States will reach 100,000, and in California alone, it will exceed 10,000.
After San Francisco legalized fentanyl, 19 states have begun legalizing it.
For normal people in San Francisco, it is not just about affecting the mood, according to the recollections of a Chinese American who opened a store in San Francisco, his store was opened next to Twitter's headquarters, and some addicts squirmed in front of the store after smoking drugs, crawling on the ground, and even once a drug addict died in the store.
Too many drug users on the streets make San Francisco security terrible, and one female employee said he carries a weapon to work every day, and when he rides the bus, he must find a place where he can see the whole picture, otherwise he will feel unsafe.
Why don't the police care?
Because you can't manage it! Every minute, an addict takes drugs, and some people even start injecting in front of the police, and San Francisco's police force is far from enough.
Not long ago, Silicon Valley's elite died on the streets of San Francisco.
Many shops and bars have to close their doors and run away because they may not even be able to recruit regular service staff.
Can you imagine San Francisco offering injection needles for free, but if you drink a drink and ask the waiter for a plastic straw, you might break the law? How ironic and ridiculous.
San Francisco offers about 6 million free syringes a year, but one or two million more syringes are recycled each year than distributed.
It is no longer possible for the United States to control drug users. California has been publicly teaching addicts the correct injection method in 18 years and has entered the formalization course. What a terrible thing this is.
epilogue
Eason Chan's satire on his world tour of San Francisco is actually just a microcosm of popular protest, knowing that many drug users are mostly not Chinese.
The "scary" drug addicts proposed by Eason Chan's concert are what most people need to experience daily in live concerts, so they can resonate with them very much.
