So...whaddya say, activists? Tired of one more pointless march, leading most of you to leave early, and the rest of you getting "kettled?" And for what? To "make a point?" To make sure that people "sit up and take notice?"
NO. If you want to actually do something, picket the fucking ICE headquarters. Make it so people cannot come and go there without being photographed and videoed. Go and scream at them, and make sure they know that there's people here who give a shit.

Or, y'know: you could do another thing where you show up and get in fistfights with nazis. 'Cuz god knows that helps.

That's 8337 NE Alderwood. Out by the airport. Yes. So, you'd have to travel a bit. You couldn't just hop on a bus downtown and make a day of it. Where when you got tired of being socially relevant, you can just go get some bubble tea or something. No.

This is one of those places where they put people so people like you won't come looking for them. They get Disappeared to places like this. While you're marching for Solidarity, or something.

Seriously, we gotta stop the Protest as Liberal Therapy thing we've had around here since time immemorial: if you're gonna march, you should do so to show some much larger entity that We, Too Have Numbers. Fuck happy marches, fuck writing stupid articles about how mad you are that Portland Is So White. If you want to stop the actual nazi bullshit afoot in this country, I just gave you the address.
