It’s pretty real where I live. Pedestrians can get fined if you are being actively dangerous with it, and the fault can be actually theirs if they cross outside a “safe” location.

Do people still get fined for jaywalking in the likes of NY?

Sure, but, as to be expected, it’s more of an avenue for racial profiling than anything else

Just because its origin was from propaganda doesn’t make it not real. There are actual laws against Jay Walking, you can be charged and fined for it.
