Yeah, but the news and a variety of websites go out of their way to either pretend there are no protests in Portland or to mischaracterize them. You need a back up plan for getting news to the people if you want the optics to reflect the truth.

The only "pushback" from the Mayor or Governor that I'll respect is if Police arrest National Guardsmen who break the law (it's inevitable they'll break the law). Otherwise, they're cowards at best and complicit at worse.

I see this online about Seattle all the time. (Plus hyperbole about the fent/homeless prob) People will be ranting about how awful Seattle is and how you can't go anywhere near it and I'm like "Really, I was there last month and had a lovely afternoon"

You left out the General Strike response

I hope Portland gives any illegally deployed military units in their city hell.

There are a huge number of country bumpkins that saw Portland on the TV during 2020 and assumed/were mislead into believing the whole city burned down and it's just a smoldering wasteland now. The actual problems were in a relatively small area downtown; most of Portland was unaffected.

Well, they gathered together all of the most awful people they could find. Unsurprising that they're not popular. It's why they have to resort to things like political theater and culture wars to win elections.

Ask Qaddafi's victims how peaceful Qaddafi was

The main problem is the three big Empires on Earth: the US, Russia, and China.

An Alliance so aggressive that decades of peace lulled it into such deep complacency that they let their military capabilities atrophy? You're being a try-hard

Unsurprising that a guy collapsing the Republic into a fascist dictatorship says that TikTok should be a mouthpiece for the Government. It's time for someone in a country that ISN'T the US, Russia, or China to start a TikTok rival for people to switch to.

I mean, that fact that Bosheviks are the commies that won really didn't help things

The wild part about this meme is that actual communists threw a bigger fit about Harris's candidacy at times than the Right did.

"My mommy didn't have tattoos or colorful hair so those things are ugly!"

Anarchy isn't a synonym for chaos my dude. If graffiti has a code of conduct that isn't enforced by a government, that's definitely Anarchy.

It drives me nuts when people graffiti over the street signs on the freeway. Like damn, you're hurting you community when there's vast stretches of concrete retaining walls 20 feet away you could be spray painting.

I think guys get fun of for the content of their tattoos. Women get mocked for simply having them.

Good for them. Learning to defy the powers that be when they try to normalize immoral/unethical beliefs is a mark of becoming a responsible adult; something lacking in University Administrations apparently.

The feds have violated lots of people's right to fair trial over the years but in the past, they weren't so incompetent and didn't do it so blatantly.

Didn't Jesus walk the holy land convincing god's chosen people to break their covenant with god? Sounds like Jesus was the Anti-Christ
