The owner of luxury San Francisco retailer Gump's warned that this holiday season "may be our last."

John Chachas attributed this to rising crime, homelessness, drug use, and remote work.

He said San Francisco is "unlivable for its residents, unsafe for our employees, and unwelcoming to visitors."

The owner of an upmarket San Francisco retailer that first opened in 1861 has warned that rising crime and homelessness in the city means this could be its last year operating.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.
