Mean while in Portland…
Day 70:
Well thank God nobody was injured in shootings!
While nobody is looking:
Defund the Police! The biomass surge is killing the planet we need fewer people.
I’m not even Canadian, and I can’t stand Justin Trudeau. He must be stopped for the sake of world peace:)

Depends when, where, and to who, but I suppose so.
This is a long read, but well worth it.
What the data presented here suggests is that editorial decisions made over the past decade at some of the most powerful media outlets in the world about what kind of language to use and what kind of stories merited coverage when it came to race—whatever the intention and level of forethought behind such decisions—has stoked a revival of racial consciousness among their readers. Intentionally or not, by introducing and then constantly repeating a set of key words and concepts, publications like The New York Times have helped normalize among their readership the belief that “color” is the defining attribute of other human beings. For those who adopt this singular focus on race, a racialized view of the world becomes baseline test of political loyalty. It requires adherents to overlook the immense diversity among so-called “People of Color” and “People Not-of-Color” (i.e., whoever is being lumped together as “white” according to the prevailing ideological fashion). In doing so, it has made stereotypes socially acceptable, if not laudable.

To start, there’s the fact that dividing a diverse, multiethnic society into oppressed and oppressor categories on the basis of skin color has, as a matter of historical precedent, more often led to sectarian bloodshed than enhanced justice and equity.
What’s more, the narratives promoting this new system of racial division are both factually fraudulent—built on false or misleading premises and assumptions—and deeply hostile to any attempts at factual correction.
I think these 2 thoughts should be juxtaposed. The narratives and their infallibility, leading to the sectarian violence as the ultimate step of division.
While the Left has waged a 50 year war against the traditions and traditional values of the West, it is setting itself for a final showdown with the West’s vanguard (USA) by attempting to destroy both government’s role as enforcer of law (defund the police) and strip the individual of the ability to physically defend themselves (make personal gun ownership m/l accessible).
While the pen is mightier than the sword in the long term (slavery as a concept considered repellant to a civilized people), in the immediate - the sword is stronger (80 IQ thug beats Ph D for their wallet). Currently the Right has shown restraint, but who knows how long that will last.

I think we can be more precise than blaming it on the Left, which encompasses many people who don’t all think alike. I believe it coincides with the rise of the newer waves of feminism.

When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people who you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating, you are attempting to commit murder,” Mayor Wheeler, who has remained relatively soft on demonstrators — even
Oooooh so now that they’re doing it to your police officers nightly, at the east precinct, near your residents…Now it’s attempted murder.

Weren’t they saying that once the feds pulled out, the protests would turn peaceful again?
The truth is they were never protests and never peaceful. But CNN will probably still call them antiracism protesters who are mostly peaceful.

Weren’t they already doing that at the federal courthouse with DHS agents inside?
Wheeler, what a goon. He thought he could control ANTIFA and negotiate a ‘cease fire’.
Well, they are BLM riots, they are doing it in the name of BLM, so I suppose we can call BLM a domestic terror organization.
They tried to burn the thing down again last night, with cops inside, barricading the doors so they could not get out.
An old lady tried to stop them, so they screamed at her and threw paint in her face. But don’t forget, Wheeler has repeatedly called this “peaceful protesting”.
Day 71:
Nothing to see here folks…

Trump’s gestapo? The “secret police”? Absolutely they tried to burn it down with them in there. But it’s ok to kill them if they are the Feds, because Trump is the president, so these guys aren’t people.
Check out the gall of the NY Times. As if they ever said anything negative about the CHAZ before. Seattleans loved the CHAZ! Wasn’t that the narrative?
“He blamed the destruction and looting on “opportunists,” but also said that much of the damage on Capitol Hill came from a distinct contingent of violent, armed white activists. “It’s antifa,” he said. “They don’t want to see the progress we’ve made. They want chaos.””

So it’s only murder if you kill the wrong person then.

Appeasement. Ain’t it great?
Nothing changed in substance from before til now. They were violent then and now.
I despise the fact that Wheeler tried to convince them by saying “you’re helping Trump get reelected”–it shows a complete and utter ignorance of what is going on, not to mention blatant attempt at politicizing what is essentially attempted murder.
I don’t know how the cops are doing it. If it was me, I’d have lost my sanity and opened fire. I understand the building won’t burn from the fires they’re trying to start, but I’d have mentally lost it.

“Almost overnight the brakes went on in downtown,” Cramer said. “The point where it all started to change was the day the City Council announced it supported defunding the police department.”

They don’t care who the president is ; they aren’t democrats or republicans. How can people who are right there, like Wheeler, be ignorant of the group they are dealing with? Did they really believe this had anything to do with race or BLM?
Probably. Never underestimate the willful ignorance of a politician.
Very interesting, thanks.
