What do you do if you are a right-wing Oregon legislator and you are afraid that your state may do something to stop climate change? Flee over the border, go into hiding, and have a violent militia guard you. Obviously. https://www.vox.com/2019/6/21/18700741/oregon-republican-walkout-climate-change-bill #oregon #rightwing #conservative #militia #climatechange #cowardice
@koavf Naturally. Why would you face constituents? Duh. They just hold peeps accountable by voting. This issue will be null by then & great play with militia. Winner.
@Cr15ta83ll I like the part where they call majority rule “bullying”
@koavf Majority rule = mob in that mindset. Cast themselves as "victims".
@Cr15ta83ll Yeah, very telling what they think of democracy or things like a commonwealth. Oregon has some very strange politics.
@koavf We all have strange politics now, around the world.
@Cr15ta83ll Certainly. But it is a strange phenomenon to see so many white nationalists and hipsters in the same state. Liberals who are big on guns and some of the most progressive and regressive legislation in the same chunk of land. There is a huge divide between Portland and the white nationalists terrorists in the east. Pretty shocking stuff.
@koavf As an Oregonian-by-Choice, I am very proud of Kate's decision to fine and arrest.
I wish the federal gov't took party-over-country-obstruction-of-justice as seriously as Governor Brown does.
