That's why I moved to SF from the Midwest. I've been working on a project that it seems certain people "out there" don't like. And also among my friends I keep too many friends of dark complexion, foreign origin, or the wrong religion. These days, one can't be "too paranoid"; and I expect the Thought Police to kick in my door at any moment. If that happens, it just proves that they are more paranoid than I am. I mostly read ancient literature, and spend my life deep in the past. Oh well, you can't please everybody!
