minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 个月前Yup. I see this in Portland ALL the time. We’re kind of protest central, but nobody is willing to take the protest to the people who need to see it. “You realize everyone in Portland agrees with you, who are you protesting?” Nobody outside Portland cares what people are protesting here, it was a joke 35 years ago when H.W. Bush called us “Little Beirut”. https://www.wweek.com/news/2018/12/06/rip-george-bush-heres-how-portland-protested-him-in-the-1990s-and-earned-the-name-little-beirut/
