    There’s a lot of shady shit going on in Oakland that is always brushed over. I don’t know what it is exactly but every now and then you see glimpses of it.

    The Oakland PD was on probation for about 20 years (yes, literally) due to corruption in the force. The recent police chief spoke out about corruption among the feds overseeing the PD. The chief was fired shortly after by the new mayor on some trumped up charges. Now there’s a highly suspicious campaign to recall the mayor, funded by dark money.

    Not to mention no one ever talks about the massive racial tensions between Black and Chinese in the city.
