There are hundreds if not thousands of these….I feel unfortunately people only care depending on who the messenger is. If people truly care about how problems start in these communities they would research. Takes you less than a day to find out about poverty in minority communities ,welfare system and gang violence. Listen to what rappers say and use critical thinking what kinda environment normalizes this type of music. What kind of label and people would give millions to these young murderers…. As you search more that’s when you hear about Cointelpro, CIA distributing drugs, red lining etc….but again I stress…people don’t care lol…rather just blame the color of their skin for why they do crime. Sb: if you’re watching a video and all it does is pander to YT guilt, blaming racist conservatives and mention trump multiple times..it’s probably not the right video to learn from.

Losing your teeth, even if it’s just all your upper back teeth really does a number on one’s self esteem. Not only is it expensive to get implants , physical problems occur like pain in your back, jaw, facial structure starts to deteriorate making you look much older, it can be hard to chew, even talk right. There is a whole host of problems just from missing teeth…. mentally, physically, and emotionally. You can even die from letting your teeth get infected….That dude has no idea the suffering he will face later on, if he even does decide to get clean, and start to do better. Missing teeth is no joke, and frankly I think he looks bad. On the inside, and out. Most recovering addicts don’t start to truly heal until way after they get clean, and finally get all new teeth. It’s a constant reminder of the life you used to live having no or lots of missing teeth.

This may get buried, but I used to work with the City Impact Mission in the Tenderloin, right where Andrew is walking. D.A.R.E. taught us that the addicted and homeless do drugs because it's "cool" and "fun," and are just inherently lazy and stupid. What I learned working there is the opposite. They're smart, capable people who are hopeless, abused, and crushed by the system - and if I had lived through their circumstance, fentanyl wouldn't be a strong enough drug to cope. It isn't that they don't want to fix their situation, it's that they can't. For every story that was told in this vid, I've heard a dozen much worse, and nobody - I mean NOBODY - deserves the things that have happened to them. If you think it can't happen to you, I've met enough corporate bankers on the street to know that it can. Thank you for showing this to the world Andrew. And for anyone watching: the homeless don't need your pity. They need your help.

Every single addict in the world is not just a perfect angel. Your logic is no different than someone who went on a ride-along with police and goes around preaching about how all cops are perfect and amazing people. There are evil people, sociopaths, and people with no intent of ever getting clean that are addicted to drugs just like any other walk of life. Wondering how much volunteer work you've actually done to have never met a person that says they absolutely don't want help. This unrelenting sympathy and do-no-wrong attitude towards addicts is not helping anyone, clearly. You people who can't balance sympathy with reality and actionable change are just as bad as the people who show none at all. This is coming from a former addict. Nobody who ever tried to baby and nurture me out of my addiction by calling me a brilliant little angel person ever made a difference. You didn't have to say you've never dealt with it, because your attitude gives it all away. This obsessive sympathy and feigned virtue signalling/compassion is just as much of a disease as addiction, just more sinister because you look like a bad person for calling people out when their whole personality is "Look at me, I care about everyone so much!" I know addicts that are still on the streets that would manipulate and take advantage of people like you, to no end. And the whole time you'd be losing sleep over how to show more compassion to people who wouldn't bat an eye if they saw you get gunned down in the street.

Losing your teeth, even if it’s just all your upper back teeth really does a number on one’s self esteem. Not only is it expensive to get implants , physical problems occur like pain in your back, jaw, facial structure starts to deteriorate making you look much older, it can be hard to chew, even talk right. There is a whole host of problems just from missing teeth…. mentally, physically, and emotionally. You can even die from letting your teeth get infected….That dude has no idea the suffering he will face later on, if he even does decide to get clean, and start to do better. Missing teeth is no joke, and frankly I think he looks bad. On the inside, and out. Most recovering addicts don’t start to truly heal until way after they get clean, and finally get all new teeth. It’s a constant reminder of the life you used to live having no or lots of missing teeth.

Amazing reporting. Amazingly good job getting into the nitty gritty. I spent 20 years working in the Tenderloin doing sound at Glide Church. You really dug right into this whole mess. Kudo to you. I am now a subscriber.
I love watching channels like this solely to educate myself and to keep myself from relapsing but I have never once seen a channel like this where u actually educate on the city and the people and are nice about it also keep doing it
Dude interviews the cops, the robbers, the dealers and homeless. Even going over the city's history. Doesn't come across as disingenuous opinionated or mocking. This is real journalism. Not what we see from mainstream media.
Definently opinionated tho
Lots of obvious bias. Watch again dullard

I like how the corporate media dismissed you as a "youtuber" when you're out there doing the real reporting by doing the deep dive on the underlying issues to what cities like San Francisco and Portland are facing. Please keep doing what you do.

AC's explanation of what causes the homless and crme is missing the point. Near lawlssness is incentivized by bad policy. But AC thinks everyone is good at heart and only do bad things cause of bad systems. That theory has been disproven time and again. People react to incentives. If you give lax laws and free money then you get results like SF.
Your ability to string together actual leads and turn it into a narrative story is just unparalleled.
this is what i wanted to say
🍑💨😶🌫️😮💨😮💨🥴
incredible work. greatly appreciated the balance of letting the characters you met tell the story without seemingly twisting any words, just showing varying opinions and letting viewers make connections and conclusions. I visited San Fran (as a Canadian) this past year motorcycling across the US. Heard all the stories and history, got there and felt more or less, "this is it?" It was still cool, to be sure. But one of those "never meet your heroes" situations. Unfortunately a very similar story in a lot of the major cities up north, especially on the west coast of Canada.
dont call it that
Very well researched! Neutral tone, while still entertaining. Thank you!
As someone who has lived in the Bay Area my whole life, I think this is the most comprehensive introduction to all the huge problems we’ve been dealing with for decades. I really appreciate this video.

Another amazing documentary, thank you for showing things as they are.
andrew, you are my favorite journalist of all time. watching you run into the street alongside the carjacking victim and yelling "what happened? what happened? what happened?" encapsulates exactly what it means to be a serious reporter. walking around a city, observing daily life, literally running to catch up with people involved in an event transpiring in real time, and asking "what happened?" is something that most (successful!) journalists do not have the gall to do. i have been a fan since agnb had a very small following, and i am excited to follow your career through the years :)
This is probably the most important piece of media to shed light on the Bay Area's current state. Amazing work 👏🏾
Didn't expect you to be a Californian too. Regardless I'm seeing a bit of this down here in southern cali. Since I'm not really in the thick of things and the neighborhood is still tame, I want prop 47 repealed immediately and additional funds for the police so they can get some shit going. The latter can be debated. anyways... looking forward to more of your vidya when you get them out!
Nice country, America
Big fan for years and I agree California it’s out of control.
And the way that media abuses this for political narratives

San Francisco police tried to give me $100 fine for smoking pot in public crazy thing was I didn't have weed on me and it was actually the homeless people across the street when I informed him and he searched me and found no marijuana paraphernalia he then got in his car and drove off😂 I guess they don't mind giving you tickets or enforcing the law as long as you're someone who look like they obey the law or at least bathes regularly😂

34:46 might be one of the most impactful segments and bit i've ever seen. A dude just lost his wife, and the whole thing is so unceremonious. Weeps goodbye and then just walks away, on with the rest of the day in a world that gives no shits about you. I'm sure he's not heading to a million dollar home either. Giving dude a hug was really fucking cool. I hope it meant something to him, because that kind of compassion is RARE today, and it made ME feel a little better.

I pray for all of those dealing with hardships and suffering in anyway. Peace, love, and blessings from the other side of the country.
And he rapes
Yea instead of saying "only care about money" you can just say "corrupted"
This may get buried, but I used to work with the City Impact Mission in the Tenderloin, right where Andrew is walking. D.A.R.E. taught us that the addicted and homeless do drugs because it's "cool" and "fun," and are just inherently lazy and stupid. What I learned working there is the opposite. They're smart, capable people who are hopeless, abused, and crushed by the system - and if I had lived through their circumstance, fentanyl wouldn't be a strong enough drug to cope. It isn't that they don't want to fix their situation, it's that they can't. For every story that was told in this vid, I've heard a dozen much worse, and nobody - I mean NOBODY - deserves the things that have happened to them. If you think it can't happen to you, I've met enough corporate bankers on the street to know that it can. Thank you for showing this to the world Andrew. And for anyone watching: the homeless don't need your pity. They need your help.
Every single addict in the world is not just a perfect angel. Your logic is no different than someone who went on a ride-along with police and goes around preaching about how all cops are perfect and amazing people. There are evil people, sociopaths, and people with no intent of ever getting clean that are addicted to drugs just like any other walk of life. Wondering how much volunteer work you've actually done to have never met a person that says they absolutely don't want help. This unrelenting sympathy and do-no-wrong attitude towards addicts is not helping anyone, clearly. You people who can't balance sympathy with reality and actionable change are just as bad as the people who show none at all. This is coming from a former addict. Nobody who ever tried to baby and nurture me out of my addiction by calling me a brilliant little angel person ever made a difference. You didn't have to say you've never dealt with it, because your attitude gives it all away. This obsessive sympathy and feigned virtue signalling/compassion is just as much of a disease as addiction, just more sinister because you look like a bad person for calling people out when their whole personality is "Look at me, I care about everyone so much!" I know addicts that are still on the streets that would manipulate and take advantage of people like you, to no end. And the whole time you'd be losing sleep over how to show more compassion to people who wouldn't bat an eye if they saw you get gunned down in the street.
You may be the single most competent investigative journalists when it comes to exploring popcultural phenomena. Well done Andrew.
It is a shame your generation, demographic or what have you, has not heard of the living legend Mark Dice. Do yourself a favor.

@@no-sway3709 Bruh what the hell you think the cops are for in society? Just stopping by criminal who may be armed and interviewing them? What do you want them to give them hugs? Sing in Kumbaya circles around a campfire with them? (but since it’s San Francisco it’d probably be a fire lit on the sidewalk in a tire) When a police officer runs up to you while you’re committing a crime, what do want happening to you? Getting the crap beaten out of you? Or be given a therapy session? Because if you choose the latter, you are then outright saying that you want to give criminals what they what. Which honestly truly speaks for itself at that point.
Andrew I love how respectful you are to everyone. Most people just walk by the homeless like they don’t exist. Still in shock that emergency last-resort housing in SanFran still costs more than my rent for a house in a rural area.
You also need to consider that moving to [insert rural town name], [very Midwestern state] isn't anywhere near as in demand as San Fransisco due to job opportunities, experience, the historically, and overall social atmosphere that you would absolutely not get in those towns. As bad as these things are, there's a reason why people would rather put up with it to live in these cities than move out
Lol "everyone"? 👀👀
I remember being in downtown Austin a couple years ago and there was a homeless man screaming something along the lines of "why don't you acknowledge me!? I'm a person, just say hi, look at me, anything!" He was so desperate for acknowledgement and not even asking for money. The girl I was walking with looked at him and said hey, I see you, I'm sorry and it calmed him down so much. Sometimes they just need to be spoken to

I disagree, Andrew clearly stated that the video was shot only in the TL, stating the neighborhood size, and comparing the crime rate to other, bordering, more affluent neighborhoods. Like I said, this is objective, and representative.
@@electricearth1101Dafuq? Gentrification and rising poverty are the problem he focuses on. The state got worse. Just to show you how ridiculous your statement is, I'd be like saying: Why do they only show that bad stuff in Gaza and don't focus on the happy families too? xD
I dont live in USA so I just want to ask how it feels living there even thou there is alot of states so iknow its different every where soooo how is it?
@@rightdad2Do you live their currently? It is as bad as some people try and make it out to be? I was there in 2008 and I loved it. I also lived in Portland, Oregon circa 2013 and it was amazing. But, you hear the same things about it going bad there. I have heard mixed opinions on whether or not this is true and sometimes, I chalk up a lot of what I hear about these big liberal cities suddenly becoming dystopic wastelands to the fact I now unfortunately live in an extremely red state. But, I do often wonder what is accurate.
this video walks the fine line between not being overly serious and not laughing at the expense of the people interviewed really well, I think this style really should be a benchmark

@@user-jt2fw5wk7z He didnt know what was going on at that point dude, car crashing backwards into other cars I first assumed road rage or some form of altercation
@@user-jt2fw5wk7z Hope you watched the full thing I also found the first part with the car-onterview pretty distasteful at first; but i think its a fine intro, and the rest of the video is incredibly well done.
Alright subscribed. You lured me in with the carjacking 😂
Andrew You are Appreciated Thank You
I love how a former coke dealer can say how ugly it is for people to be using drugs in public while making a living filming himself pouring liquor into women's mouths.
Yup!
He’s the biggest moron
Good call! So much about this channel glows in the dark.
lol what @@exotica0
No shit, huh? Dude doesnt actually give a fuck about "the kids" or "his city." He's after his new drug of choice; clout.
This is one of, if not Andrews best piece. Rest easy Vicky
This scene made me cry wtf
Incredible work, man
you do gawds work Bro. Stay safe out there - yall do some of the realest guerrilla press work in the States. Bless yall.
As someone whose lived in San Francisco for almost 10 years staying in places all over the city (mostly in the Mission District) this video accurately sums up all the major issues going on. This is peak journalism and can't stress how accurate the depiction of these damaging issues are in what was considered the most modern city in the world. Now it's the biggest dystopian nightmare in the world.
It is a problem but didn’t you see it is very isolated to that part of the city around the tenderloin and civic center. In a city that is 7 x 7 miles that is a very small area
What a joke, america is full of filth
@@yusux Honestly its the worst in the Tenderloin above most parts of the city and have been mugged there once from some crack heads trying to get money or drugs. Its definitely not the only place in the city thats ridden with homeless and drugs. Pockets of downtown have whole encampments and even outside towards lower Mission District where I lived had the same issue and lots of "flea markets" full of stolen goods and witnessing car breakins in broad daylight and acts of violence from homeless people attacking other homeless people or non-homeless passing by. Honduran dudes with backpacks and weapons on them trying to sling opiates all over the downtown area. Tenderloin is just the worst of it and you get a lot of those people coming from other parts of the Bay where its also bad where they conduct "business" and be on some fuck shit.
The comeback arc is complete. Damn Andrew this is some hard hitting content.
Also, I was ready to gang up on my boy Ricci Wine or whatever but mans was spitting bars. ANDREW CALLAGHAN FOR MAYOR OF KZhead
he could have assaulted a nun for all i care 💯
He's nowhere near where he was and will never rise above this
@@yehheapsmadaybutkeep hating
He's stepped his game up. The background provided on the situation is documentary quality. It's not just entertaining one-sided interviews anymore. I respect the experimental evolution. Channel 5 is new age journalism. Awesome work!
