    Been offline today, what’s happening? Or worried about Kenosha repeats?

      over 1000 blue lives matter chuds, many armed, have convoyed into portland. the vibe is tense in several other locations as well

        I was listening to Christman talk today about how we’re definitely not headed for a civil war and that’s just not even realistic but fuck it really feels like we’re headed in that direction.

        Thank you for the info, sending my best thoughts to Portland as always

          I mean Matt says no civil war but he also says a major increase in violence is coming. Maybe he doesn't consider a slow syria-style grinddown a civil war, I dunno

            I feel like once I can go to shows again, I'm going to have to conceal carry if things get worse sadly not allowing me to drink anymore.

          Well, 1000 chuds going on shooting sprees still isn't a civil war. So you and Matt can both be right.

    Welp, looks like your bad feeling came true. :/

    Things are sadly gonna escalate the longer these protests go on on both sides. People are gonna die on both sides.
