  1. Nihilists. Every single one of them. They want to tear stuff down but haven’t the slightest clue over what to replace it with.
    Maybe it was a link on this website, I don’t know, but it was a podcast about Portland business owners who’ve pretty much thrown their hands in the air and said Eff it. The corruption is so deep and so systemic they’ve simply thrown in the towel. No one they can turn to and no where to go because they’re financially strapped. What a damn mess.
    The travails of a downtown bicycle shop owner would make you weep. Imagine sinking your life savings into a business that you loved and watching people walking in and out ripping you off and breaking your store windows while police stood by and watched.
    UGH!!! Keep it.
    Don’t be surprised if it leeches over here.

    1. Burton, yes, it is repugnant.
      However, are the travails of the bicycle shop owner the result of what said owner voted for?
      If so…wear it. If not, he picked the wrong city to become an entrepreneur.
      Just saying.
      I hate what is happening, but it is on all of us for letting it happen.
      Kick back at the darkness as best as you are able to.

      1. “…are the travails of the bicycle shop owner the result of what said owner voted for?”

        Admittedly, the thought crossed my mind.

  2. Surprise, surprise…blood lust is not a civic virtue.

  3. “Halloween parade cancelled over complaints it ‘marginalizes people of colour'”

    Funny that they have nothing to say about Blackface, at least as it pertains to the Canadian PM Jr. Trudeau.

    1. Funny that the School District is claiming POC are “marginalized” because they don’t celebrate Halloween. Bullshit. My wife has taught 1st grade in an “urban” school district for 30years. Yes, she has had some children most every year who do not participate in Halloween. Yes, those were all black kids. But their “blackness” was NEVER the REASON they didn’t celebrate or participate in Halloween.

      The reason? They were ALL Jehovahs Witnesses !!!! .

      In the name of DEI … the Seattle school has conveniently left out the ONLY reason POC don’t celebrate Halloween … they’re Jehovah’s Witnesses … you know … Michael Jackson’s Religion. So the DEI liars are LYING about POC not celebrating Halloween … they’re hiding the RELIGIOUS reason for it. Guess separation of church and state ENDS when it’s a (mostly) black sect.

      1. And BTW … the (black) JW’s also do not celebrate; birthdays, Christmas, Easter, Valentines, Thanksgiving … any and all festivals not directly sanctioned by the JW Church. So … if you believe this will stop at Halloween … just wait.

        And they don’t participate in the Pledge of Allegiance, nor do they sing the National Anthem (say … was Kaepernick a JW?).

      2. Well, Kenji, that sure rings with irony, seeing as the Jehovah Witness types will ring your doorbell with tricks and treats regardless of what day it is.

        1. But ever since I learned Michael Jackson was a JW … I just sing “Beat it!” “Beat it!” “Don’t make me have to repeat it!”

    1968 CBC interview of Vancouver Mayor Tom Campbell about the Hippies :
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoc347KjBk0

    Notably, interviewer Collins was formally cancelled by the HR grievance industry in BC during 1999, for his ‘pattern’ of writing opinions which by themselves were justifiable, so to speak.

    1. Ah, yes….. Tom Terrific, as he was nicknamed….. back when Vancouver still had mayors who knew how to properly run a city.

  5. Premised on coercion and nurtured on the politics of envy, resentment, and hatred, the left in America are, like their more worldly comrades, essentially destroyers of civilization and tyrants and mass murders in training. Her arrogance betrays her security of running for political office in one of the most hopelessly left wing cities in North America.

  6. Seattle and Portland have both turned into shitholes.Vancouver is well on its way as well

  7. What bemused me when I read about this earlier today was that the claim was that black boys were being picked on because black boys didn’t celebrate Halloween.

    Strong implication here is that if black BOYS were being identified then black GIRLS must be all over International Pumpkin Day like a rash.

    Which, based on the latest patch of the Rules of Wokeness, means that cancelling this event is sexist against girls and also probably makes you a Vax Denier and deliberate user of single use plastics.

    Well done everyone.
