10 reasons why San Francisco sucks

If you want to work in finance you come to NYC, not San Francisco.

Agreed. I was basically saying that you have to be in tech or finance to afford to live in San Francisco. Otherwise, you will be struggling.

I am not that familiar with the world of software engineering but it seems like talking to people in that field that Austin, Denver and Seattle are other alternatives to San Francisco and as much flak as those cities might get, they're still a better alternative.

All of those cities are sausage fests too. Seattle may even be worse, since people don't go outside for nine months out of the year.

Plus, a lot of the tech opportunities in those cities are satellite offices for the big software companies. The opportunities are generally much more limited at satellite offices versus the Bay Area, which is usually where the headquarters reside.

I think if you are a young man in general, game should be in your top 5 priorities although it should not be the only one.

I will say this. If you are young and starting a career in technology, you should look into getting a job at one of the FAANG (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google) satellite offices in NYC. In general, being in a satellite office, you may not progress as rapidly in your career as if you were in the Bay Area, but the NYC dating scene would be a good tradeoff. Plus, NYC just smashes all other US cities in terms of almost everything, except for weather.

Keep in mind though, not everyone has the skill level to get into one of those companies. And if you don't, the pool of potential options in NYC pales in comparison to the Bay Area. The number and quality of startups in the Bay Area provides much more opportunities for a broader range of skill levels.

To anyone that disagrees with me, if San Francisco is so great then why are its liberals infesting other places like Colorado, Austin and tons of other cities?

Because they now have shitloads of money from working in the Bay Area and can now buy huge houses for peanuts. That's why.
