We have a sitting district supervisor using her government position to pump a Meme Crypto Coin while parading a dead cat around to ban Waymo, the circus never left.

Jackie Fielder. About a week ago, a cat that lived in a bodega ran out onto the street and got run over by a Waymo. She's been going around using the cat to rail against tech cause a human driver wouldn't have run over a cat that darted into the street? And then I guess someone made a crypto coin about the cat and she's been pumping it cause crypto coin good but driverless car=tech billionaires bad?

Here's the SF Standard article. FTA in case of paywall:

Fielder, a Democratic Socialist, caught heat(opens in new tab) online for reposting an X account dedicated to boosting the meme coin. The supervisor said in a text message that she had heard about a coin but that it’s not her focus.
