I have lived in Portland all my life and of course hate it.
So the other night my gf takes me and two of her coworkers to a comedy club to see some guy I've never heard of (some Youtube guy, JP something) and it's right on Hawthorne which has historically been a progressive hippy street for decades. I'm angry I have to be there and I'm rude to everyone in site who I despise for simply being in that area and looking like they do.
But get this... the two comedians that opened for this guy -- both from Portland -- shit all over the virus death rate (how low it is) they shit on Portland, Biden, etc. And the crowd is eating it up and applauding. THIS IS IN PORTLAND.
One of the comedians asks a couple in the front row what they do, you know playing off their answers, the woman is a nurse. To look at her she's the typical Karen-Progressive-Cunt. He asks if the virus is a big deal and she says "No" the audience starts cheering and applauding. He asks her advice on how to deal with it all and she says "Just live your normal life and you'll be fine" audience cheers again (me being one of them).
The headliner comes on and shits on Biden, shits on Epstein, definitely shits on Bill Gates and his wife. goofs on how people are acting all this time with their mask bullshit, and not only is everyone agreeing with all of this there isn't one dissenter in the crowd. And this crowd def had some soys and chicks with hairy armpits.
Good to know that there are other sane people in Portland. I saw a boat in the river with Trump flags, so people are still being cautious, but a little more open.
Great story PDX pede! Don't forget stand up comics were hit hard by shutdowns. clubs closed, gigs canceled, EcT. Good comics are also amazing mirrors of a society.

tl;dr even Portland is waking up.
Would you happen to have seen Awaken with JP? That's a great YouTube channel!
Just looked and that is the guy for sure. He's ok for someone that lives in Austin.
I generally don't trust people from Austin.
If you are blessed to live in the greatest state in the greatest country in the world, why would you pick Austin?

Eh, it is what it is. I'm happy there's at least some conservatives there, keeps the place from getting too out of hand.
It’s relieving to hear stories like these. Thank you for sharing. I believe people all over are waking up and will continue to do so.
