No Seattle Thread?

If you read nothing else, just read the first couple of paragraphs:
I love CHAZ. That’s the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, a six-square block Wokeistan in the middle of Seattle, though I fear that they’ll change the name to something more euphoniously transgressive any minute now. And, while I feel bad for the businesses and homeowners in the area who are watching their property values plummet like one of those applause-o-meter dials at a focus group for Sean Spicer’s new one-man song-and-dance show at Branson, CHAZ is just too perfect not to talk about.
For starters, we’ve been hearing for years that borders are terrible. Some wokevolk talk about borders the way you talk to a dog that craps on your new white rug: “Bad borders! Bad!”
But what’s the first thing the Chaztopians establish? Borders, baby. The chief of police explained that, in a generous act of appeasement, she ordered the removal of police barricades at the request of protesters who said they wanted to march “because we really wanted to establish trust. Instead of marching, the protesters … established their own barricades. So the streets we wanted to be clear are now no longer clear.”
Once they erected their own politically correct barricades, as Item One of Infrastructure Week in their Polizeifrei podunk, they posted a sign that reads, “You are now leaving the USA.”
And note, it’s not just an abstract border. They built a frick’n border wall! I swear I’ve heard people talking about border walls like they’re the concentrated evil in the microwave in Time Bandits.
"Wokevolk" lol.

There should be no federal, state or local involvement here. We must let the social experiment play out.

I got as far as Sean Spicer's song and dance show and had to stop reading due to a coughing fit.

Yes, but without water, sewer, electricity provided free of charge to a foreign country. I do not approve of supplying them portable toilets, water or food. You want independence? You got it. Let them sit in their own filth.
Just don't go in with force. Worst possible idea.

And that argument scales up with respect to states that want to secede from the union - Texas, California and others come to mind.

This whole “let it play our” scenario forgets about the folks that lived there before all this and want nothing to do with it. They are deserving of protection by their elected officials.

How? By what means?

Scott Adams (paraphrased):
You know the first thing they learned? "We need a police force."
The second thing they learned? "We need a border."
The third thing they learned? "Hey, food would be nice."
They are re-creating all the systems they oppose.
I tried to get my house declared an independent free zone, and I applied to the United Nations. Sadly, "Scottland" was already taken.

I would invite anybody to go down the list of progressive people you know and try to think of a single one who at this moment, if part of a city had been taken over in an armed insurrection by a right-leaning group, would not be absolutely losing their mind. (Meanwhile, conservatives appear to be watching this with vague amusement.)

I say just dig a large pit and dangle a Birkenstock, flute, and a joint over it. Problem solved.

@George-K Are those people really so "unaware"? It is so funny!

We are so much more racist than we were 10-15 years ago and it’s getting worse, just not in the way these fools think.
