Portland is full of the people who couldn't make it in Seattle or San Francisco. The locals are genuinely pretty chill people and wouldn't freak out like this as they generally do vote Democrat but quietly accept Republican wins. They need the big infrastructure upgrades and depend on the low taxes to encourage consumer spending. It's the grunge low lives that come in from Washington or California who try to appropriate what the locals did to stand out. Source: My ex was from Portland.

Well put. I'm a portlander and most of these crybabies are just Californians freaking out over a republican win. It is fun watching these riots though. Just sucks that they're damaging my city.

It's pretty easy to spot them now. We have a similar thing with people from Ontario coming to BC. Behind a year or 5 on style, unkempt, never owning a vehicle, very kooky liberal ideas compared to ours, and serious substance abuse issues. Really rude for no good reason either. Last Christmas my sister was dating a guy like this. Super fucking whiny, rude, no clear understanding of being polite, thought everything was about being a cool elite yet dressed like it was a early 2000s techno raver. Sure enough the fucker was a kooky liberal from Toronto.
