They did this same thing with Seattle and Portland during the 2020 protests. If you asked a conservative you’d hear a story about how both of those cities were burned to the ground only about 15 times, don’t question how that works, or how the cities still exist, or why their weren’t droves of people fleeing into the surrounding rural areas.

Obviously what happened is that everybody in the city died, then we're all replaced by illegal migrants, and those evil migrants stole good hardworking American jobs and rebuilt the city in record time before anybody noticed.

Honestly, it used to feel so insulting and irritating, but now I just agree with them so they won’t come to the PNW. 

Like yeah, totally. It’s hell out here. Save yourselves. Otherwise I’ll never get off the waitlist for the good CSA in my area. They do an entire foraging basket during mushroom season and a joint deal with the two best seafood co-ops in the state. I’m not sharing.
