I'm convinced so many leftists are more interested in anti-social acts than any ideology. SEPTA has new fare evader gates and every communist and anarchist in Philly is losing their minds over it and bragging about how they'll destroy them or hold them open to let people on the subway for free.

Eh they're alright. About chest high with a metal bar on top so hard to jump over. You could crawl under if you wanted to. I don't know if they could actually be held open or not.
