I mean, why is every chud freaking out about Portland being the worst place in the world? Suddenly everyone is attacking portland for some reason and I don't really understand it because I don't even know what a Portland is lol
Seriously, Oregon was created as a white-only state. Oregon and Portland was historically racist and bad place. Then in the 00s it became hip to live there so everyone moved there from California and there was a lot of gentrification. Probably for a decade now the city has street fights between antifa and chuds. The Pacific Northwest of the US has lots of white nationalists and anti-state right wing extremists. There have been literal terrorist training camps there. Huge part of the militia movement in the 80s and 90s. Portland is this very liberal place surrounded by lots of chuds.
Remember when people were content to be unambitious. They sleep until 11am. Just hung out with their friends. They had no occupations whatsoever. Maybe work a couple hours a week at a coffee shop. Portland is a city where young people go to retire.
damn, that sound great. Fuck all this propaganda about being "ambitious"
Is that also why chuds hate California so much? Because the cost of living is so high, many Californians are going to move to what they feel are "their" states, and what happened to Oregon (it's electorally a solid blue state because of one city) will happen to, say, Texas?
Portland is an isolated cosmopolitan center in a state where it was literally illegal to be black until like 1940
It also has relatively few people the chuds are genuinely scared of. Ever notice that the chuds never do armed invasions of "hellhole" areas of cities where gun violence is relatively common and the people they'd face wouldn't be pasty noodle-armed glorified posters?
Thus it's a soft easy target and a place where they think they can have fun. They want to go own the bluehairs and make good social media content, not to die.

literally why don't they don't these guys have tons of guns and military training from their little militia camps
(plz I just want to see gun battles between Chudihijadeen and street gangs)
Portland is a super liberal city in the middle of one of the whitest most racist states in the country. They even frequently elect demsocs to local positions. The chuds hate them for this and also fixate on it as a component of their "antifa invaders" rhetoric. They go there and march around knowing that it has a strong anti-fascist tradition (being a progressive enclave in the Pacific Northwest). They also point to it as a land of lawlessness because of the clashes with police in anti-cop protests and loudly proclaim it is a failure of liberal policy.
And it works. They get to play victim to their base and spineless libs like Mayor Ted Wheeler will keep caving to them to prove they're not taking a side with the "violent antifa who are just as bad"

Listen to the Radio War Nerd episode with a dude who moved to rural Washington state and covered their freakout over the "Antifa bus" among other things. The US has been cultivating these types since at least Vietnam (free military training) compounded with neoliberal decline, hippie and religious shit, and the broader mythology the US tells itself.

Do you remember the 90s? People were talking about getting piercings and tribal tattoos. People were singing about saving the planet and forming bands. There's a place where that idea still exists as a reality -- Portland. Remember when people were content to be unambitious. They sleep until 11am. Just hung out with their friends. They had no occupations whatsoever. Maybe work a couple hours a week at a coffee shop. Portland is a city where young people go to retire.

Under communism everyone will do this but with other jobs.

There are a lot of homeless people which chuds hyper fixate on if it's a liberal city because they are making the streets unclean.
No, you boomer.
But anyways, doesn't sound so bad. Why the war zone narrative?

Actually 1926, but still horrendous.

I'm sure there will be plenty of time. It's just going to take a few more years...
They will get owned probably
Critical support for the tentative Blood/Crip Alliance.
Extended truces between gangs like these have happened before around anti-police sentiment.

People should check out Kathleen Belew's Bring The War Home for a great history of the post vietnam white power movement.
Chuds love a pithy object of hate and melodrama.
Also Portland has some of the larger fights between chud groups and leftists.
Portland or Seattle will be where some of the first big skirmishes between armed leftists and fascists will be in the coming years.
