The town i moved from this year on the central Oregon coast they love to parade their tanks down the road, have been for years. Oregon is already militarized and absolutely facist in disguise, esp in the small town and rural areas and it will be so easy for them to take over unless people rly fight
They never think past the takeover though. Concepts of a plan fail. Minority Rule is a bitch. bsky.app/profile/laur...
They have some huge plans, but how they'll execute them even after military implementation, is questionable and pathetic and ofc frankly evil. I think that the general cognitive dissonance and programmed individualism of the majority of Americans is a bitch and everyone is about to find out ):
Yeah, it's not looking good.
I say this as a disabled houseless very obvious intersex and gender fluid human, people aren't fighting back like they should. Complacency is potent across the nation. I still have hope but facts are facts. I am helping with the local politics today even, a huge event.. but I am still so cautious.
I hear you. I think that people raising kids while making payments on homes, cars etc. are super time stressed. They don't have time to notice each new twist of the knife when the kids have to eat and get a bath. It's frightening when you know the freight train is coming. 😔
Honestly, the scariest places are on the fringes of Portland. Boring. Damascus. Sandy.
