Have you considered taking it a step further and petitioning your federal representatives to put forth a formal bill of territorial secession? Trump is evil. You guys should pursue permanent autonomy.#LeftistSecession Mayor Jenny Durkan: @realdonaldtrump The Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone #CHAZ is not a lawless wasteland of anarchist insurrection - it is a peaceful expression of our community's collective grief and their desire to build a better world. Given his track record, it's not hard to be..
Almost Charlottesville again in Seattle
This happened a few hours ago in #Seattle. Memories of #Charlottesville came into my mind.
Extra content warning for the video. The man who tried to pull the driver out of the car, was shot by the man in the car, but seems stable now AFAIK.

@realcaseyrollins That is the christmas elf I was refering to. While I wont argue it is blackface I was looking for one that wasnt of the Holland christmas elf depicted here (Called Zwarte Pete)
@realcaseyrollins I agree it isnt too common. I cant be sure its a censorship thing no. But I do know there are examples of people at parties in literal blackface, usually from the "alt-right" that should be pretty high on the result list and I cant find it.
Listening to last night's #TimPoolIRL episode, apparently #CHAZ people (can we call them #chazzers pls?) are trying to plant crops but they're not actually putting the seeds into the ground lol
@realcaseyrollins I wouldnt describe any of those as black face. Those are characters in makeup to look african, which isnt blackface IMO.. Blackface would have to be intentionally done to mock africans, usually with large red lips and literally black colored face pain.
I wanted to show a foreigner a picture of what blackface looked like. I wanted a modern day picture in color so it was easier for them to recognize.
Problem is when I look on google images the only results that come up are that of a Christmas Elf called Zwarte Pete from Holland.
I had guessed that this may be intentional censorship so as not to give this particular form of hate speech a voice by eliminating it from search results.
To me this is a perfect example of why such censorship is counterproductive. The end result was I was unable to educate someone about this form of hate speech effectively.
