Well, in a way it's their fault too. Somebody votes for the city government that thinks the way to handle the problem is allocate budgets to yet another NGO that makes the money disappear and produces a nice report, without actually solving anything. Somebody votes for the government that makes naked people running in the middle of the street the new normal (I am not kidding even a little bit, seen that in SF several times with my own eyes), camping out and excreting right on the city's main street pavements the routine and perpetuates the whole sorry state of affairs for many years. SF is not a poor city, judging by amount of megacorps in there and shiny towers already built and being built. I can not believe making the city not look like a wasteland is a problem of no resources. It is a problem of mismanagement. And this management did not come from Mars and conquer the city. Somebody elected them and keeps electing them.

So inhabitants of SF hate tech workers because they vote Democrats?

No, I did not make this claim. What I claimed instead is that tech workers, along with other inhabitants of SF, share the blame for the sorry state the city is in as much as they voted for the people who put it into that sorry state and who are unable to fix it, despite being the city with excellent climate, lots of thriving industry and extremely affluent (by the standards of any other place) population.
