Gotta love that communities of color are razed just constantly for dumb as fuck highway projects but it takes 30 years to fail at building a short bike trail because a bunch of kulak farmers decided it was too hard to avoid spraying cyclists with pesticides.
Oregon is where the first real civil war conflicts will break out mark my words
i never would have guessed that a state that forbade Black people to live in it would attract so many right-wing extremists
There really is something to the idea people are trying to recreate the experience of being feudal lords. About half way through the article the Farmers basically admit they don't really care about the trail itself and are just trying to assert their power over the land by being contrarian. You can tell a lot of settlers end up with a cultural imposter syndrome thing going on.
