Siege of Portland, Day 13

At the red light the row of young protesters looked at me expectantly over their masks, holding their signs like the earnest young people they were. Other cars were honking their approval. I made a show of rifling through my glove box.

We’re a suburb about seven miles out of downtown Portland. This was another impressive demonstration by the siege, rallying what looked like almost a hundred people to line up with BLM signs way out here, all earnest, good white dupes lending a little more legitimacy to the bloody movement and a little more of the surreal to it for me.

Rain, sometimes hard, kept the antifa types holding the courts and police under siege to a minimum last night. Somewhere a freeway was shut down and a few dozen hardy souls were out after midnight in cold, wet weather still. We’re in a lull it seems, but downtown Portland still has the feel of occupation.

Portland’s police chief has bailed out, apparently making the decision suddenly and choosing a black subordinate to replace her. She had only been in place for a few months after replacing the city’s first Black Lady police chief, who left the city for a better deal in Philadelphia after a short bumpy tenure marked by low-level anti-Trump rioting and our now quaint series of Patriot Prayer versus antifa skirmishes –which now can be seen as invaluable training for antifa.

Probably related to the chief’s escape, the next day (today) Portland’s mayor has proposed looting 12 million from law enforcement, defunding the three units least popular with blacks–gun reduction, school police and the city’s contribution to the transit police (other municipalities will have to pick up the slack to police transit), handing their budgets over to “communities of color”–no doubt via the same groups behind the rioting and sacking of the Justice Center.

Also chokeholds are banned, or maybe re-banned, it’s not clear (policy was to use them only in “life threatening situations”–perhaps not even to save your life now).

The cave-ins we’ve seen in all manner of institutions have in common the same creepy mea culpa regarding having not acted sooner

During a news conference Tuesday, Wheeler said details of these plans and others are in the works and that Portland’s black community has demanded the changes for years. The mayor acknowledged that he should have acted sooner. 

 And another, distressingly uniform adoption of the language of theory

“My privilege as a white man, my privilege as the mayor and the leader of the institutions of power in this community I believe shielded me from time to time from the many difficult and uncomfortable truths about our history and about our society,” he said. Wheeler is also the police commissioner.

The dazed, defeated mayor promised he’s just beginning the process of handing over the city

The mayor said police reform alone will not get rid of systemic institutional racism and white supremacy in the city, but said it was a start that he believes will help lift the city and make everyone safer.

“White supremacy” is no empty slogan and no joke here. The policy changes and ransomed funds are just the standing demands of now teflon-coated council member Jo Ann Hardesty, who made a little stir, in simpler times of a year or so ago, when she promised to “end white Portland”. She acknowledged today she’s about a decade ahead of schedule.

Wheeler’s capitulations are coming so fast as to throw an already beaten-down police bureau into confusion

It’s unclear where the officers from all three units will be moved. Of the $12 million that Wheeler vowed would be invested in communities of color, $7 million would come from the police bureau 

Cue the Russian accented: “in new America, criminal gang shakes down police”.

Bigger “reform” is on the horizon, of course.

Oppression and Delusion

At Mytilene things went so far that the Penthilids, who had secured the chief power, went about in the streets, armed with clubs, and knocked down citizens whom they disliked.
–JB Bury, A History of Greece to the Death of Alexander

The element black rage plays in the George Floyd hoax is the exact opposite of how it is understood, even by the nominally conservative. It is not the desperate expression of an oppressed, suffering people, but the expression of a powerful one. One confident in its expanding (if ultimately unearned) power, and settling scores.
For blacks individually and as a group, George Floyd’s homocide is an affront, from an inferior class of people–the detested whites. This is obvious.

Likewise, the language of the polite mainstream–the supposed voice of white America–is opposite the reality.
Of course this isn’t an oppressive, powerful people finding their own fault–what oppressor does that, after all?–but an oppressed and miserable one. It’s a plea, a plea for final clemency, an acceptance of a diminished role, begging for the violence and misery to stop.

But the plea is as contrived as the context–made by a tiny, hostile elite and delusional antifa–the real population silenced, any real dissent confined to these obscure corners by a media chastising the sane mass for the virulent mob occupying our cities.

Critical race theory has provided blacks with the rationalization that their preeminence now is a return to their naturally superior role. But frankly the words don’t matter, and one is far more edified by the tones, expressions and hysterics of black folk. Words and meaning fare about as well in black neighborhoods as an exposed white person, and are subjected to similar violence and depravity. They destroy not only our buildings, but our language.

Meanwhile Donald Trump–the “power” being fought–may be himself incapable of understanding the underlying truth, despite always having had far better instincts than brains, that whites are an oppressed people, and oppressed by the absurd convention placing a child-like and destructive but dominant and imperious race in the role of moral aristocracy.

Blacks are thriving relative to whites at the same time we are in fact dying off. Power and wealth are being redistributed from white to black–this process is to speed up now because of Saint George.

And while blacks may have not earned it by contributing to the nation’s well-being generally (in fact earning it by virtue of degrading it, through criminality and degeneracy that are, alas, ascribed to our racism through demagogy) they are not responsible for the absurdity of their preeminence and only go as far as they are encouraged to go.

But boy are they being encouraged. We are witnessing a world-class betrayal and con, from which there’s no going back, whatever the resolution.

Storyboard

“I’ve been in suspended animation for decades and I’m ready to get back to doing evil. First order of business, let’s gain control of the newspapers and television so we can take over America.”

“Done long ago sir. And wait til you hear about this social media thing–you’re going to love cancel culture.”

“Well then, let’s use these media weapons to contrive a plot involving Russians, computers and spies, so we can take over America.”

“We tried that. Blew up in our faces.”

“I’ve got it. We’ll create a global pandemic, crush the economy, loot the Treasury and take over America.”

“We’re already on it. Initially looked promising but he virus we released didn’t quite have the legs.”

“Oh hell, let’s just do what we always do, gin up some black rage, hold the nation hostage and take over America. Okay? Good.”

Barbarism and Impotence

“The critique of culture is confronted with the last stage in the dialectic of culture and barbarism: to write a poem after Auschwitz is barbaric, and that corrodes also the knowledge which expresses why it has become impossible to write poetry today.”
Theodore Adorno
 
To talk about police brutality, “racism” or even economic inequality in light of the Siege of Soros is to capitulate and engage in a barbaric rite, the point of which is your destruction.
Do not do it.The false issues presented are in fact the point of surrender, and should be the point around which we rally our defense.

Cradle-to-grave social conditioning means good people follow the red herring of black oppression, without a thought–worse than a diversion, it’s an inversion of reality. It’s precisely the degree of this inversion that gives it its power, as long as it holds. That’s what our experience with black America has taught us. We’ve watched, shamefully mute, as their cultural sanctity grew in tandem with their appalling behavior. We watch still as their shame is transmuted through shoddy theory into ours–their criminality and mediocrity the result of our malice, our “racism”.

Your first lesson from the Siege of Soros is you can no longer humor for a moment this lie.

Accepting their premises is to accept defeat from the start; the rest is just negotiating terms of surrender.

We’ve reached this appalling place by humoring this evil nonsense.

The power of black credulity and rage is being used to destroy your country.

Blacks are not uniquely oppressed in white society. This is demonstrably untrue of course–if one accepts as criteria wealth, liberty, education, opportunity and access to technology; by these no one is more fortunate to be born in the West than an African. If you’re White or Asian, the disparity between here and your ancestral home is minimal. If you’re black, it’s great. Absent migration, I would have been born in northern Europe. Absent the slave trade, the average black American would have found himself a black Zimbabwean or Angolan.

Now there is an argument for his legitimate oppression by Western culture, and I accept it. He is genetically outfitted for a very different society than this–perhaps in the same way that I would feel an ill fit in the African society that was his evolutionary crucible before colonization. Perhaps much black rage is owed to this, and the high degree of racial pride and constant casting about for racial authenticity suggest blacks understand, in their strong bones if not their weak minds, that this is the problem. They live in our world and resent it.

It’s okay though; they are taking over. With a little help from their friends, of course.

The notion of White supremacy–simply the pathologization of White culture–relies on an implicit rejection of the Enlightenment values it still cites and from which it originated before running them through the gauntlet of Jewish mind-fuckery that I think of as the Narrate-o-Matic.

What’s killing us, White people, is the mismatch is now ours. We get to be second rate negroes, because Blacks and their “allies” won’t have them as second-rate White people.

New Normal: Commuting

“Looking to carpool, Portland downtown, nightshift. Smokers okay.”

This was taken around 130AM. Small groups of protesters lingered harassing cops who gave chase. Things were finally winding down after the rioters spent themselves. The 8PM curfew was made a joke by the sheer number of people on the streets at 8–and still pouring in.

Police abandoned a blockade of Burnside Bridge and allowed a large group through, declaring them “peaceful”. I think this is them arriving triumphal at about 930PM:

The rioters are mostly white and not hardcore antifa but just “woke”–what’s different now is how many people antifa and organizers have brought out into the street with them. Manipulated or not (and it very much is), it doesn’t matter. Those behind this have demonstrated they can mobilize a broad range of people on the most absurd pretext. Of course, they can’t turn this off now and they knew it going in.

Portland Joins in

Protesters blocked off the street in front of Portland’s Justice Center around 2AM and drew no police attention as a few dozen rallied and gave speeches.

One speaker managed to praise the Symbionese Liberation Army (kidnappers of Patty Hearst) and its philosophy (symbiosis, naturally, so we may “evolve”), the Black Guerilla Family prison gang and, almost losing the audience, Qanon:

The protest wasn’t truly spontaneous, but this freestyle was:

Elsewhere the prevalence of white protesters suggests heavy Soros involvement. Portland protests are always disproportionately white antifa types already–and the organized, paid aspect of it probably higher–with relatively few genuinely wound up, angry blacks. You can see by the quality of speakers that the white organizers don’t have a deep well of talent when recruiting black “leaders”. So here there’s no pretense of spontaneity. But a genuine outpouring of black rage simply isn’t possible here (alas), so the intensity and nature of our protests is evidence in itself of the manipulated nature of the Black Lives Matter campaign.

Witnessing their preparations last night with the usual forward unit of white kids setting up, seeing the antifa graffiti appear ahead of them, learning they were also returning to besiege the little ICE facility at the river: it’s too much of the same script and too little of, frankly, genuine black rage (these speakers really do have to talk themselves into it sometimes, with the help of the white kids, of course) and the reports from elsewhere of antifa involvement leave me with little doubt this is all an orchestrated national action timed to coincide with our other crisis.

Evil is afoot.
