Portland Protest Gothic: A Thread

This is the 5th warning. This is the 89th warning. This is the 2nd warning. You await the final warning.

The voice speaks. The crowd raises their leaf blowers in anticipation. The gas comes. Unbudging, they disperse the gas west.

Here’s more footage from the shooting

Guilty on all three counts. My only wish: The jury should have only deliberated for 9 minutes and 28 seconds. #DerekChauvinTrial

Think about this verdict by asking yourself would this moment of accountability have been possible if it weren’t for the courage of a 17-year-old girl to record and share what was happening to George Floyd. #GeorgeFloyd #DerekChauvinTrial

Please note: Feb. 1 is not the deadline to submit the form; it's the date that the state moratorium starts to apply to Multnomah County renters. The moratorium only protects renters who submit the form, so tenants are encouraged to send it to their landlord as soon as possible.

I'm perpetually annoyed that the rumor about Jews having horns is like, the only false one 😔 I'd trade our space laser for that any day, honestly.

And no, before you ask, shofars don't count.

@StillMeRox @SFdirewolf @dremilyportermd @CAgovernor I actually empirically study this public fear of individuals faking disabilities for a living. After working on this issue for years now, I conclude that this moral panic causes policy changes that hurt many(!) people with disabilities much more than benefiting a few free-riders.

Remember when feds/cops gassed Portland BLM protesters so hard it was visible from space

[/r/2020PoliceBrutality @r2020PB]

more force was used on peaceful protesters who wanted accountability for a cop murdering a man in broad daylight than for people who violently stormed the United States Capitol.

I've seen more tear gas deployed for a dance party than what was used in DC today.

@alex_zee Fixed it for you Ted

[Bellingcat @bellingcat]

For those who are able to: please try to scrape and save any videos and livestreams of the Capitol storming and occupation. Just like after Charlottesville in 2017, many of those who are streaming will delete their streams once they realize how incriminating the footage is.

Somebody make a joke about how Trump finally became as dangerous as nipples on Facebook.
