They are about to get rid of their gay pussy mayor (Ted whatshisname) who was run out of town, to elect some chick anarchist for mayor who thinks antifa is a political movement which she supports.
I'm telling you: if you live in Portland right here right now, and you are just a regular normal person minding their own business - this is a good time to reassess your life and location.
Day by day moving on in my plan to Escape Seattle ~ panic now and beat the rush.
Out of the three most likely traitor States after Trumps win
Man, I wish I had the confidence everyone else seems to have. The media the leftist propaganda ministry has been running anti-Trump indoctrination - NON-FUCKING-STOP - for close to 5 years now. The last election was razor thin. To me, it seems super likely that, with:
5 Years of relentless propaganda
The left using covid to push lockdowns that destroyed the economy, and made everyone miserable
The leftist tech magnates using their near total control of all internet search, and social media to electioneer the fuck out of almost all information
it's highly likely that they are going to manage to make enough people so demoralized, and so desperate for "change" that they are going to move things the couple of percentage points they need to take this election.
I don't see how anyone could win with this much arrayed against them. I see really dark times ahead.
Imagine buying an AR for home defense and you can't use it because the fucking commies made this a law:
Not being familiar with the laws of our commie brethren in the west, at first I was like "WTF am I looking at here? What the hell is that thing behind the grip?", and then I looked it up. I had no idea that those idiots had banned pistol grips on ARs, much less restricted mags to 10 rounds. It's shit like that which makes me glad I live in a flyover state.
I don't think Trump is going to win. Not because he won't get the votes mind you, but because the leftists will cheat. They are going to steal the election, and its going to be obvious.
What happens after will determine whether we deserve it or not, but I think most people will just put their heads down like good little peasants and accept it. Even the gun nuts are just talking about hiding their guns instead of fucking using them.
I'm in Portland and every election cycle we do more and more retarded shit then complain when it isn't working.
Adding a professional black racebaiter to our City Council, now looking at firing our weak faggot Mayor to elect a retarded Antifa/Marxist-aligned woman...
And the mountains of feel-good-policies and "not-a-tax" taxes; and I'm rushing to get in shape to enlist with Uncle Sam and GTFO of here.
A whole bunch of reasonably well off folk who couldn't afford the rent in San Francisco moved to Portland to try and have the hippy, organic free life (Only cheaper).
It became a liberal circlejerk of good intentions which were short sighted.
Shops celebrating their African-American customers wouldn't see the irony that is celebrating their African-American customers. Events highlighting same sex relationships couldn't understand that celebrating male-female relationships is equally as valid. Transwomen were placed above ciswomen in their social hierarchies.
Calling out any of this was an attack on all of it and so brought in more parasites to soak up the safety of exploiting ignorant idiocy.
You forget the endless amount of homeless people. I went to Portland in 2016 (Columbia River Gorge and Smith Rock were some of the most geographical beautiful places I have ever saw), and man you can smell the homeless from the freeways, I can't imagine Portland now.
Slow accumulation over time, that eventually hit a breaking point. Back in the early '00s Portland gained a reputation for being a Mecca for Liberals and free-spirit types, similar to the way San Francisco and Berkeley were back in the '60s and '70s. Since like attracts like when it comes to idealogues and unstable people, they gained more and more far-left thinkers and believers in crazy theories. Portland further gained a penchant for being "weird", with people doing oddball things on the streets just because they could. Go look up a video of The Unipiper - a guy in a Darth Vader helmet and kilt playing a flaming bagpipe while riding a unicycle - as an example. The reputation was fostered and maintained by the socialist denizens of the city, to the point of counter-culture vultures in the city starting campaigns to "Keep Portland Weird" when the normies wanted to clamp down on some of the rampant oddity.
We all know that trying to maintain a socialist city is an unattainable goal. You can only have so many unemployed rainbow-haired street freaks wandering aimlessly through the day, sucking off the system, for so long. Eventually the place hit critical mass and full-on Marxist ideology started running through the leftist populace, and you end up with the shit-show we have today. If I was a normal person who was living in Portland, I'd sure as hell be sizing up my options for getting the fuck out of the city.
i mean i like the good kind of weird but i hate communists , subverters and people that leech in the manner like you described. They sound like they never grew up. . Though what "free thinking " do they have when they all follow the same cult and are in to censoring and banning free speech and art now a days?
You pretty much hit the nail on the head right there. A good majority of Millennials weren't raised with proper parenting techniques and are basically arrested development cases. Their parents wanted to be their kid's friend instead of being a role model and disciplinarian. The kids were coddled by their helicopter parents, and the parents made it so they didn't have to face any sort of adversity or failure. Sports or other group events? Nobody keeps score, everyone gets a participation ribbon. Kid got a bad score on a test at school? Parent goes to the principal and bitches about the teacher's techniques. The kids didn't have to deal with feelings of loss or failure, or to have to learn about fair play and personal achievement. Nobody drove them to excel or improve based on their merits, and I believe that this contributed to their abhorrence of a merit-based society. They were given head-pats and cookies for just existing, so why shouldn't society do the same for them now?
Though what "free thinking" do they have when they all follow the same cult and are in to censoring and banning free speech and art now a days?
Yeah, "free thinking" has always pretty much lent itself to being counter-culture, and back in the '60s and '70s that typically that meant standing up to authoritarian rule - which, to be honest, was pretty bad back then. The problem now is that the "free thinkers" of today have become the exact thing they rallied against 50-odd years ago. They, themselves, have turned into authoritarian types that are trying to impose their will upon the populace, with tactics involving racism (disguised as "diversity"), fascism (disguised as anti-fascism), and attempts to push their control over the way people think and speak through both coercion and force. It's like they read Orwell's 1984 and took it as an instruction manual instead of a cautionary tale.
Colin Woodward writes about this in his book American Nations. To simplify, the region was settled by people with utopian ideas. When immigrants came to America/Americans moved to a different state, they decided to settle in regions with similar values to them. The state of California, Oregon, and Washington today is the result of generations of people with far left ideas moving in and people in the center or to the right moving out.
If America was settled by people who didn't fit in in Europe, the west coast attracted people who didn't fit in in the Eastern US. The ones who didn't go there for the weather or jobs anyway.
Thats my theory anyway why there are so many people who are "out there" on the west coast.
Portland, Seattle, and San Fran specifically have long had lefty images, and so they attract like-minded people
See, the far west was founded by those seeking freedom and they own land and they hit gold and oil. Became rich overnight.
Now you have an influx of thrillseekers who want easy money for little work. They show up and oh look it's not so easy. Now you have all these broke bastards lobbying to be supported by the "local government" because making an honest wage is difficult with so many people.
Now over time it becomes progressively more and more socialist. For the longest time this was held off by the barons of industries who didn't want anything to do with that nonsense and controlled the politics to prevent it. With the advent of the internet and an easier life however all those leeches were more freely able to congregate and force their socially discohesive activities.
It's why Cali was Republican with a socialist undercurrent all the way up to the 90s, then almost overnight the Republicans were purged and the socialists took full control. Those commies were always there and were always corrupting the system slowly, however with the advent of the internet and the ability to quickly control the flow of information you saw a sudden shift in their actions from background subversion to full assault.
You can see this playing out in other areas now too.
The commie faggots sense weakness and are dropping all pretext. The Jews that control the media are in full damage control and 100% willing to tell you that left is right and red is blue if it means advancing their own interests.
True in the 19th century the people flooding there because of the gold rush and what not were seeking easy money.
I was thinking more of the 20th century migrations. People going to Cali to start a new life, the flower children going to San Francisco and what not. They didn't fit in back east or in the Midwest and are now over represented on the west coast
Oregon has always had weird rules. When I was in grade school at Shedd elementary, they outlawed the word or mimicking of a gun. So we had to make new motions. Later on I realized many of them were rather sexual, but I meant it as a gun.
This was a fairly backwoods area of the state. The school librarian, principal and others held the same positions at other elementary schools, and the junior high. I had to take a bus from Halsey to get to the school.
On the other hand, they had alan assembly a week with whoever came in to do a show. There were magicians, a roller skating horse, the author of the Bearenstain Bears, and several others. We just assumed school was like this all the time. The mime was a personal friend of one of the students so he did the show for free.
Imagine a place where amazing multi room arcade bars are a thing.
So that's how everyone grew up, weird rules, and attempts to thwart them. Then weird stuff happening all the time to the point it becomes normal. Now imagine Antifa got ahold of people like that. A screaming desteuctive mob two blocks away from a giant book store seems normal. Being told this shouldn't be happening is considered weird, and people get defensive. I've heard people talk about Antifa the same way you would talk about a sports team, and the proud boys are the big rival team.

You should get outside of Seattle asap.
One of my friends just got hired at Amazon as a programmer and to my horror is actually planning on moving now to Seattle.
I showed him Andy Ngo's twitter videos and advised him not to do this right now.
He claims he has no choice.
He voluntarily left a good job in a company that is situated in a suburban area in California but it atleast was not a hellhole like Seattle.
Some normies don't see the hell they are choosing to walk into even if you shove it in front of their eyes.
I hope you get out man!
Man, I wish I had the confidence everyone else seems to have.

Now there is just vapid non-thinking entities who attack on command.
i feel sorry for any of the sane native Portlanders that didn't want this and got a bunch of invaders ruining their home.
