Portlanders who want to stand up against racism in a very direct fashion, look no further:
PDX – “Based Spartan,” “Based Stickman,” “Baked Alaska,” and a cadre of assorted white nationalist goons are flying in from all over the country on 6/4 to converge on Portland. Some of these folks call themselves ‘The Proud Boys’ and are completely dedicated to physically fighting for alt-right / white nationalist causes. If you’re unaware, there’s already a fairly large white supremacist presence in Portland, too. They’re all masquerading as “free speech” proponents and using Trump’s name as a not-that-far-from-the-truth shield.
Don’t know if any of y’all are familiar with what happened in Berkeley, but they’re trying to outdo themselves here in Portland.
If this event goes unchallenged, it normalizes and legitimizes white nationalist demonstration in a city, state, region of the country that is inherently and intentionally white supremacist.
I will remind you that the last rally organized by these SAME PEOPLE had yesterday’s murderer/terrorist in attendance. We need numbers. We need everyday people to stand up in opposition. Allowing this to go unchecked is exactly why people died yesterday
fash have to always rely on shipping in numbers and protection by the state through its agents the police
they play themselves as valiant white knights crusading, but the “big men of the right” fall away in fear when organized anti-fascists exercise coordinated attacks and maneuvers
read “militant anti-fascism” and “combating fascism” for some reflections on past anti-fascist struggle
