A group of far right assholes have showed up to protest at David Douglas high school after students allegedly pushed back at a formation of a turning point chapter. School is out & they are outnumbered by predominantly Black & Brown students roasting the fuck out of them.

I’m starting to think that maybe setting up an enormous masked secret police force with basically unchecked power populated by the country’s most virulent racists was a bad idea, and maybe also that we shouldn’t have funded them at a level greater than most of the world’s military budgets combined.

Never forget that the Oregonian editorial board wholeheartedly endorsed Rene Gonzalez.

I used to have a better view of the Oregonian but that really drove home the point that they aren’t really interested in a prosperous Portland/Oregon if it means inconveniencing the wealthy business class.

Israel has already repeatedly violated the ceasefire deal.

Murdering Palestinians and refusing to allow aid trucks in. The genocide continues.

Remarkable. This piece, written by Jake Tapper, helps construct a pretext for Israel to resume full-scale operations in Gaza.

Zero mention of the *multiple* attacks by Israeli forces over the past few days.

Instead, he writes, “But so far, the tenuous ceasefire has held.”

Trump tells CNN that Israeli forces could resume fighting in Gaza "as soon as I say the word" if Hamas won't uphold ceasefire deal https://cnn.it/4qdKot3

Most likely.

It’s pretty gross that the right loves to purposefully drive fear and make people feel unsafe in their bid to decimate public goods - which is really what makes communities decay into chaos.

So you prefer our parks to deteriorate.

No joy. No fun. It’s gross to demand that our public spaces that make the community thrive just be deprived.

I’m voting “yes” to fund our beautiful parks and I hope the whole of Portland will join me.

Lmao of course the Oregonian is saying to vote no on funding Portland parks. Conservative rag.

Portlanders are being asked to approve a 75% hike in the parks levy, but only $2m/year will go to its biggest problem - ensuring pools, paths & other assets don't deteriorate to point of closure. Vote no and ask the city to revise the levy for May. Editorial: www.oregonlive.com/opinion/2025...

Editorial endorsement November 2025: Vote ‘no’ on flawed parks levy and tell city to try again

Parks need Portlanders' support, but a measure that increases the tax rate by 75% is too expensive and dedicates far too little money to ensuring that parks, community centers and other assets are mai...

All Israelis have been released - but there are still thousands of Palestinians who are being held hostage by the apartheid state of Israel.

"The reality right now is that if you refuse to engage with the science- the science that shows that COVID is a virus that disables human beings, and that this virus is asymptomatic 44% of the time- then you are spreading a disabling virus, and you are harming people. "

Beyond all reason

Long COVID patients are constantly harangued about our requests for COVID safety. Yet what we're asking for is far less than what we're called on to do to survive.
