Inside CHAZ

[Kris]

Wow, just wow...

So the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone exists.

It's like the movie Joker was a documentary.

Welcome to CHAZ, the newest country in the world.

Anyway, enjoy:

To quote Bill Burr on this kind of thing:

"This is not going to end well."

Cop free zone, yet that guy in the skeleton suit is already policing the area. So be it. Let's see how they like the new regime after 6 months. Animal Farm anyone?

[Im-a-Ridah]

There is lots of talk of "invading", but the government can easily defeat them without a shot being fired. All they need to do is accept the protesters demand for an independent zone!

That means put up a 30ft border with Chaz, cut off all imports and exports, cut off all water, power and sewerage and it will be a ghost town within 2 weeks.

Apparently they have been building walls and have an armed security force that patrols. Also some people have been forcibly evicted.
Err, I thought walls were bad and the whole point of getting rid of the Police was to not have armed people telling you what you could and couldn't do.

Nevermind, I'm sure it'll be fine.... (Bill Burr is right).

Seattle is turning into the Detroit of the aircraft industry. Large proportions of the population are (or were) involved with aircraft production, manufacture and service, mostly for Boeing who are the state's largest employer. They were already suffering from the 737-max debacle then coronavirus hit and grounded virtually all the planes now it's all going wrong around there.

The skeleton guy is such a nerd. Actually all those "guards" are nerds.

Also interesting how they have that undercurrent of hostility toward anyone who looks suspicious. Maybe they should realise that's how the police have to feel every day.

I think America has a problem with violence, fear, hostility and the need to "protect" oneself from baddies, and that problem clearly happens in all sections of society.

How true is the rumour that the Larpers are shaking down local businesses for "donations to the cause" ?

A protest leader in Seattle's so-called "Capital Hill Autonomous Zone" demanded on Friday that white occupiers give their non-white counterparts money — or face retribution.

"I want you to find, by the time you leave this autonomous zone, I want you to give $10 to one African American person from this autonomous zone," the man told a crowd.

"And if you find that's difficult, if you find that it's hard for you to give $10 to people of color, to black people especially, you have to think really critical about in the future are you actually going to give up power and land and capital when you have it," he continued.

"If you have a hard time giving up $10, you're gonna have to think about, 'Are you really down with this struggle? Are you really down with the movement?' Because if that's a challenge for you, I'm not sure you're in the right place," he said.

The protest leader went on to subtly threaten the white occupiers by saying that he would remember them.

"White people, I see you. I see every one of you, and I remember your faces. You find that African American person and you give them $10," he said. "Do it!"

Are we talking about S.A. or the U.S?

[chickenstrip]

And who are these wonderful and wise 'leaders'? They must be very special. Surely they will command the respect of the overall majority of citizens

I read about this. If I was black I would have been very offended.

It's patronizing and indirectly implying white priveledge.

"I enslaved your black ancestors, but here's $10. I feel better about it now."

[Ayrton]

I'm not buying this whole thing about it being peaceful, a guy did just get killed there. They are probably on their best behavior during the day while all the reporters are there so they can see what a socialist paradise looks like, but there is plenty of footage of people being attacked and having their shit stolen.

There's also this video of their leader stealing this guys phone for recording the shooting.
