So no one set any buildings on fire? [1] It's all a conspiracy? These are deep fakes and propaganda news? [2] 1. https://nypost.com/2020/08/24/blm-protesters-s

  No, I should have never commented in the first place, but I guess what I meant to say is the media keeps making Portland out to be some sort of BLM free-for-all. Your NY Post article is a great example of propaganda: "Black Lives Matter militants." It was a BLM protest, not necessarily everyone there or inciting violence was associated with BLM.

    There are some media organizations which imply that all of Portland is constantly a free-for-all, and that's certainly not true. But I think it's hard to look at many of the videos (the most recent example I've seen is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2CCeFlxIiU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2CCeFlxIiU) and not conclude that there's a localized, temporary free-for-all. I think anyone would be terrified if this were happening just outside their window.
