No shit, what is the deal in Portland? They don't seem any more oppressed than anybody else in the country. And until they wrecked it, Portland has been a pretty nice place.
I don't even understand what their actual problem is. Ouside of "fuck the pig" what are the complaints?
The problem?
Too much peace, comfort, boredom, time, and decades of being an epicenter of far-left progressive ideology. They don't have any real tangible problems so they seek enemies wherever they can find them; even if they need to create them themselves.
For the most part, these aren't the "people of Oregon" but more bored youth who are children of the local liberal elite. How else do you think they could possibly make so much time for these activities? They're comfortable enough financially to be able to afford it -- even as they panhandle for donations. For some, this is their job. This is how they make their money.
They don't have a cause. Their cause is themselves.
That's just a big hippie town. The protests remain in those cities because they have no means and no understanding of anything outside their cities.
