To everyone making poor excuses for what's happening in Portland because you believe it can't happen to you: it can, and at this rate, it will.

By making excuses now, you are telling this rollercoaster it can find new victims when it's done with these.

You will be that victim.
So many folks being like, "Yes, get em!" Parroting words like "thugs" & "criminals" & "rioters" without evidence, even when folks with clear Red Cross insignia are attacked on video.

Authoritarianism is not a joke, friends. You haven't seen the half of it, trust me.
If your political position means you agree that a human being can be plucked off the streets for expressing dissent with their own mouths & voices & bodies in their own country, and abducted without being charged, then that's not a political position. It's an inhuman one.
Again, this might be very exciting to you because you think, "Yes, WE are winning against THEM!"

They will not be THEM for very long. There will always be new THEMs. And if you let this go on unopposed, the day will come that THEM = you. But it'll be too late by then.
