ATTN GREEN BERETS: New AO is Portland.

Mission: De Oppresso Liber.

Enemy: militant vegans, bicycle brigades, $9 lattes.

Terrain: food trucks & drum circles. Secure kombucha lines, neutralize rogue flannel cells.

Freedom isn’t free—it comes with artisanal avocado toast.

Godspeed, Operators.

Portland doesn’t need the military. Portland has its own defenses.

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

Trump says he’s authorized Hegseth to use “Full Force” against Antifa in “War ravaged” Portland
At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

It's Baby Safety Month.
A baby sitting in a catapult in a suburban backyard. The baby seems surprised to be there. The text reads: Is this a safe sleep environment for your baby? No! This is a catapult! Put your baby to sleep flat on their back in a crib, bassinet, play yard, or bedside sleeper. If your baby falls asleep in a car seat or other product not designed for sleep, move them to a safe sleep space.

An INTENDED result of going after free speech is it scares people into being silent in a moment where we need everyone to be the loudest.

Everything that is wrong with the GOP can be explained in these 4 charts

The principles of Abuse

The failures of racism

The Special Snowflake chart

The Virtue/Abuse Quadrant chart

redloraine.wixsite.com/website/post...
A chart of an asshole - each pucker of the rose represents another spoke on the wheel of abuse - it includes things like abuse, exploitation, transphobia, misogyny, sexual assault n The inability to tolerate discomfort n No self awareness n A lack of a strong internal sense of self that isn’t rooted in hate n Which creates a lack of selfactualization outside of racist tropes n Not being able to selfsoothe n An inability to sort out general information using a basic logic familiarity n No distinction between external fears & internal biases n A difficulty in changing perspective which translates into being trapped n Which all creates a self identify rooted in the persecution of others n Internally understanding these actions as wrong means that they will always doubledown because to do otherwise would dismantle their entire self Repeating this process is unsustainable. Come away from racism. Work on all of these faults within yourself. Learn how to change your brain. 1. Always distort the truth to make you seem favorable and frame the target of abuse as unfavorable. 2. Always misrepresent your motives to be beneficial while hiding the principles of abuse that are being used in whatever action is taken. 3. Frame any call to responsibility or consequences as invalid, and deny, deflect, distract, and attack the source of those calls. 4. Always promise what the targets of manipulation want, frame what you are doing as delivering what they ask for, and then do whatever you want anyway. 5. Undermine any circumstances that stand in your way for example if a wilderness area you want to exploit is pristine, get in and make an oil spill then there is nothing left to protect; or if you want to destroy public education install an abuser, destroy the agency, point at it as a failure of government and then implement your private education plan for profit. 6. Isolate the targets of abuse by dismantling support systems, cutting off access to resources, and opposing anything that could bolster the targets of abuse. 7. Always take the best and leave the least possible for the targets of abuse such as funneling PPE dollars to military contractors while heath care workers use trash bags for protection. 8. Always use unfavorable circumstances to your advantage and if possible, turn circumstances against the targets of abuse such as allowing COVID to ravage blue states while funneling dollars to red states. 9. Always blame the victim for anything bad that happens to them or anything that you do to them. 10. Always pretend to be the victim in any situation, co-opt any symbols or methods your targets use for selfdefense. 11. Never allow scrutiny of your actions and always reject any investigations. 12. Use high control, propaganda, fear, threats, and manipulation to manage the victims of abuse. 13. Never admit to any wrong. 14. Whatever you want to do is the only thing that is important and any suffering you cause along the way is inconsequential or ev… A quadrant chart is a type of data visualization that divides a scatter plot into four quadrants, often used to identify trends, patterns, and relationships between two variables. THIS chart drafts the intersections of virtue and abuse - showing the most and least of each. The republican government exists in the most abuse and least virtue of the chart

MERKLEY: How do you feel about being responsible for hundreds of thousands of kids dying because of your sudden interruption in these key programs?

VOUGHT: I reject the assertion

heroes aren’t heroic because they’re flawless

every one of us is problematic somehow, some way

heroes are heroes because at the right time and place broken people had the courage to do what was right instead of easy

beware of anyone criticizing bravery with someone’s flaws

cynicism breeds loss

This is peaceful protesting while using free speech. Well done to keep cool.

Whats also noticeable thats good? The National Guard there seem to be calm and I'm sure they arent looking forward to being there. If you give the National Guard members space, they'll not be hostile while protesting

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

The full quote from RFK, Jr. is truly disgusting and this is 100% him calling for institutionalization of autistic people. This is horrifying.
“These are kids who will never pay taxes,” Kennedy declared. “They’ll never hold a job. They’ll never play baseball. They’ll never write a poem. They’ll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted. We have to recognize we are doing this to our children.”
