    Just take a moment to bask in the notion that “it’s pretty plain you’ve never been to Portland” without any clarification implies that actually they do constantly bump into hippies that say, "I’m Antifa and I hate Jews!” or at least something along those lines.

    This is so unbelievably unhinged. I honestly think it’s bad to remove comments like theirs, because they show so clearly how wrong that person is.

    Even claiming they live on the coast as if that explains anything is just playing right into the Fox News canard about “coastal elites” which itself carries antisemitic undertones.

    They’re being so vague about it, I assume because they live on “THE COAST” and it’s all just so intense and self-evidently evil that they are completely incapable of giving any specific details whatsoever.

      Jesus. Do you want my name and address? I don;t need to say which coast, it’s fucking obvious between hippies and the named cities. You people think youre being clever, but are really just showing you’ve not been there.

        Ah yes, name and address, clearly what I meant by specifics. I certainly didn’t think it would be reasonable to specify the specific behaviours you’ve seen and in which contexts.

        No no, a city and the notion of racist antifa, that’s all anyone needs to take your word for it. I trust you.
