That's awful and I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. And also I always say if you're getting enough attention to be a target for hacking, you're doing something right so I guess also congrats? Sending you all the positive vibes and energy towards resolving this quickly

Especially when they're completely missing our point- Morillo isn't doing jack-all to ICE. She drafted a concept of a concept that would fine landlords for their tenant's actions. While I'm not a friend to landlords, that's just beating around the bush. Go at them directly, look at other options

It is meaningless to hold a soldier responsible for following orders if we are unwilling to hold those who gave the orders as equally responsible.

Put this entire administration in jail.

This is evil. She needs to go to jail for human trafficking. Disgusting. I hope her nephew goes no contact with her entire side of his family.

You're exhaustingly a broken record of BS. Go annoy someone else who's willing to do nothing with their time. I'm not going to go in circles with you anymore bc my time is filled with real action. You're a boot licker who is willing to accept subpar performers over real action.

Eat a dick.
She stepped out to weaponize her identity against accountability for her own inaction.
It's perfectly reasonable to expect elected officials to act when civil rights are being violated under their watch. You're infantalizing every member of color by saying we should be nice to them.

Our civil rights can't be violated for a price but I guess I'm just stupid enough to believe rights mean something. My community members are not for sale. There is no price that makes these atrocities acceptable.
You will never alter my conviction on that

Except this won't even be actionable for at least a year while they hym and haw about BS. We don't have the time to wait for them to do this plan.
They have so many things they have power over and instead of utilizing any of it they want to distract us with a PR stunt.

If you were serious about anti fascism then you wouldn't be belittling the importance of building community systems. We cannot fight a winning battle against fascism without replacing the fascist systems we are currently forced to rely on. Without a new network, we are easily controlled.

And yet you'll use it against me? This is literally you being the definition of a keyboard troll. Most of the things I do never make it online either. I don't usually make time to bother with the Internet stuff bc I'm too busy with everything else.

Exactly. They want to point fingers at everything else but admit their own faults and their own inaction in the things they do control.
Not once have any of them offered to help set up meetings with the city admin, mayor, or even take meetings with us in a respectful manner

Instead of utilizing the existing laws and ordinances to hold ICE/Lindquist accountable they wanted to pretend to do something and passed this fee thing as a concept of a concept. It will take years to even understand if this concept brings any financial relief to anyone.

Except this was not a surprise meeting or even one that ran unexpectedly late. They plan their schedules. The minority women you're so concerned about protecting were blatantly laughing and texting and doing everything else but listening to their constituents.

So this sounds like another keyboard troll as well bc this is not community building language. Trolls don't live rent free in my mind and the last one took up too much of my energy already. If you had genuine interest in building community this is not the way.

I think you should go elsewhere with your clear bad faith intentions. My comrades are not for a troll like you to disparage. You will no longer receive engagement from me.

I trust my networks and am always seeking to expand them. We have several people who track bad actors and chuds.
If you know people who know my people they're welcome to join us anytime

For talking in circles you're really the pot calling the kettle black. You've been given solutions and you're refusing to use them.

But there were many there who were unaffiliated with us and shared our views with their public comments.
You're asking me to prove a negative and that's wild

I don't know how to more clearly state that we did not contribute to or create that video. Greene decided it was ours bc how convenient it is to blame the loud group with all the criticism, then it's super easy to ignore all the 'noise' about the permit. We had many of our people speaking that night

Active online does not equate to active on the ground my dude. You're well aware we were at City Hall very recently

It's really hard to know the names of every POS in the world and I'd rather use my brain space for building things. How did we platform him- we don't know him.

This guy is not in our group so why do we need to 'answer' for him. You're trying to connect us to someone without even giving context into how we supposedly platformed him.

You're giving major basement troll vibes so I'm going to just keep being busy with doing the work and being concerned with the opinions of comrades who are involved with the movement.
I didn't say I was above criticism, only that I have discernment with whom I will listen to

I've facilitated giving out 379 food boxes over, handed out 200 whistle packs, and distributed about 800/1k of the red cards I made last week- just in the last 4 days.
The community needs are explosive this year and I'm so grateful to have such amazing friends to help provide!

Cool story.

When your activism extends further than your keyboard I'll entertain your criticism of our social media choices.

I don't know who that guy is so probably not and I've been slammed with feeding the community the last 2 days so I'm not going to devote the energy to looking up some rando.
I'm only interested in engaging with people who are doing things and not just criticizing those doing the work.

Totally valid! Instagram in particular is just so huge with the other community groups too that it's really hard to build traction and get participants for demonstrations.
We have an email too: portlandcontra@gmail.com

But sure, try and point out my 'misrepresentation' with some misdirection of your own.

Yes, they're sharing and talking about it because people are blaming us for it. How else can we show we didn't create it than showing the account that did?
And of course we have videos of their apathetic behaviors, I bet our videos are more that just super cuts of them eating and misogyny

Yes, we did film some of their behaviors but we did not share that film to our own members yet let alone an outside entity.

If we had a hand in creating it, it would have been posted from our social media first.
