So to all outsiders, keep it coming. Move to Oregon! Come and stay! Save our children from their heritage!

Be careful what you wish for.

In the 1920's, Southerners moved to Oregon and brought the Klan with them. The locals, seeing it as an all American fraternal organization with cool code names and secret handshakes, joined in droves. They even got a governor elected to... chase out Catholic schools.

When I was a teenager, it was Sharps and Skinheads attacking each other in Portland. And now Patriot Prayer is here to carve out a homeland.

I guess Arizona snowbirds would like it here for summer, but it's by no means a temperate climate.

Oregon (at least, west of the Cascades) doesn't have the blizzards and deep freezes of the north east and midwest. It doesn't have the humidity and hurricanes of the south. It doesn't have the dry heat of the south west.

It is the most reliably mild climate in the US. The only thing that can really gently caress it up are volcanoes and earthquakes.

My man Northeastern blizzards and freezes along the coast really aren't remarkable in the least, let alone on the apocalyptic level of the Midwest.

Patriot Prayer is a gaggle of fuckups who don't even live here, and the vast majority of the immigration to Oregon is from more liberal areas of the country. You're giving them way too much credit when you say "carve out a homeland", as if they're Normans landing by the thousand in Sicily. They're the dregs of the dregs, and frankly I don't expect them to hold together past the inevitable prosecutions when they go too far even for Portland's racist police force.

Yeah patriot prayer is able to have such a large media presence not because there's a lot of them and they're organized, but because the Portland police are more willing to act as their support team than cops in other places.

I will be interested to see how it goes, because Ted Wheeler seems like a uniquely lovely mayor. A more decisive leader would have cracked down on Gibson's goons or, more likely, arrested prosecuted some of both them and Portland's large anarchist community. He's such an easily led dupe, though, that he made a half-hearted, flailing attempt to criminalize antifa and only antifa, and then gave up forever.

Speaking of, is there any sign of how the next mayoral election is going to turn out? I can't imagine he wants another spin at the wheel, but it doesn't matter if the PDX democratic party is one of those sewn-up outfits by and for hacks, where only time-servers and donors get a chance at the brass ring.

The 90s anti-PC stuff was heavily enmeshed in the overarching nihilism that permeated 90s culture, and while it was dumb, it didn't feel aggressively dumb and as organized as the current strain of anti-PC bullshit.

Not so much giving them undue credit as just taking them at face value. They want a space where they can be openly fascist.

So far they have survived one of their fellow travelers stabbing 2 people to death on a Max train. At this point, its asking how many more people have to die before they are completely shut down.

that Republican club in manhattan where the proud boys showed up a few months ago had a meeting to elect a new president on monday. i'm not sure how many people showed up to protest but i know that one local Democratic club emailed its members to do just that

oh btw, the guy who invited gavin mcinnes to speak there won the club's election

its going to take electing a mayor who isn't a fash-sympathizing left-hating centrist who can crack down on the police department for openly collaborating with people from out of town who pose a clear and present danger to the citizens of the city, and and also who won't brutalize legitimate protest movements like abolish ICE

The same thing happened in Arizona except it was an endless stream of conservative midwestern or canadian retirees moving in and keeping the average age up. There was also a big surge of right wing militia gun nut types who moved in while arpaio was in office and the SB1070 crap happened. The younger people (native and new) trend left but there are so many old people and right wingers constantly showing up that the state never quite turns blue. There's also a ton of orange county people who got priced out of california but still wanted to live in a stupid desert so there's that too.

this group in arizona hasn't gotten much attention but worth noting. the leaders were posting plans of gallego's house on facebook "including street names and notes about where walls and gates were located." i believe someone associated with this climbed a tower and wouldn't come down because he was freaking out about immigrant pizzagate camps in the desert

saw a militia researcher on twitter last year point out that the "patriot" movement is really fragmented right now. there's no single national cause to rally them so they're going on their little local crusades. i'd put patriot prayer in this category.
