Think of all those pro-Israel pundits you saw on your television screens this past year trying to sociopathically justify the mass starvation of Gaza by robotically claiming Hamas steals the aid. They were all lying. Shamelessly. Even the Israeli military confirms it now.

Pride is an event that brings people to Downtown Portland from all over the region and indeed from out of state; the City of Portland should be making it as easy as possible for businesses take advantage of that.
Scandals doesn’t have the full street for their pride block party as usual; apparently “permitting was too hard”.

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it?

Sorry to be hyperbolic but I walked by this today and it broke my heart.
We badly want our city to recover but then we have @pbotinfo.bsky.social actively regressing it.

It’s these small things that add up that make people lose love for our city and move away.

You can dismiss literally everything somebody says if they believe there's a white genocide in South Africa but not a genocide in Gaza. They're decrepit, immoral lying scumbags who know they're lying and don't care.

Textbook fascist propaganda.
- Painting Salvadoran men as rapists or killers based on one man's actions.
- Highlighting white female victims to appeal to racist male savior fantasies, as was done to Black men in the Jim Crow South and as Israel is doing now to Palestinian men.

No offense to the owners of Toro, but it’s really disheartening how much of downgrade it was compared to Tilt. You also know Tilt would have made the most of the now car-less 13th Ave.
