This is violence against everyone in Oregon. Anything done in retaliation is self defense.

This is violence against everyone in Oregon.

The specific areas on fire are among the most MAGA parts of Oregon, ironically.

As I pass through small, run down towns that are basically fallen apart while traveling for work, I notice an increase in Trump flags & signs. "Trump was right!" "Trump 2028!". It almost feels like a cry for help "somebody please save us!". Somehow they don't understand the reason their town is falling apart is because the rich & stupid people in charge don't give a shit about them.

So I'm definitely not suprised the ones getting fucked by the wildfires are more MAGA-leaning. It definitely fits what I've experienced over the last few years.

Guess who's paying for it. It's not them.

We should hunt down their friends and family.

Weak reporting. Fascist government denies urgent assistance to citizens in need is a better headline.

I hope I live long enough to see Trump stroke out on stage, JD Vance to be assassinated, and the Republican party ridiculed into oblivion.

One can dream.

I would love to see states that get targeted like this just stop sending tax money to the fed entirely.

That part of Oregon votes heavy republican. They even want to join Idaho.
