Da fuq is this guy protesting about?
Apparently he's a renter. If he's been given proper legal notice that his lease is not being renewed and he refuses to leave in the designated time period, he's essentially trespassing.
Next step in the legal process is eviction. Pretty cut and dried.
Irrelevant from a legal standpoint whether he's black, white or green. Property rights take precedent. Unless the fucking City of Seattle wants to try some bullshit eminent domain crap and say this property has historical/anthropological significance.
Which, given that it is Seattle, this dude will stay put in his SWJ protected piece of shit rental.

It has to be an extremely cut and dried case.

There's a fine line between a white nationalist and a white supremacist. Sad!

It's probably Chinese money doing the development anyway.PurpleJ said:There's a fine line between a white nationalist and a white supremacist. Sad!

He has done nothing wrong,” said Cliff Cawthon, an organizer with the group Standing Against Foreclosure and Eviction. “The only thing he’s done is be a black elder in a rapidly gentrifying, developing city.”
City Councilmember Kshama Sawant weighed in against the eviction

Wish Trump would go after Chinese real estate investors. Sick of these fuckers going in and bubblefying housing markets. They've completely fucked Vancouver and are starting to fuck Seattle.PurpleThrobber said:

Vancouver fucked themselves.

Yeah Vancouver fucked itself because it waited too long to implement any restrictions on overseas buyers. The US will fuck itself too if it doesn't start clamping down. Right now the Chinese real estate problem is primarily in a handful of major US metros but its going to get worse because no one seems to give a shit.

Seattle is rich because of globalization and the high-value (skills and education of its workforce). In the long term "WE" will become even more successful and dominant. The only way we lose that advantage is to restrict the flow of capital, labor and resources.

You're conflating speculative Chinese real estate investment with globalization and FDI in general. Foreign property ownership isn't a good thing if the property owner doesn't live, work or contribute meaningfully to the local economy. It prices out local residents and creates distortions - median housing prices that far exceed median incomes. This is the problem in Vancouver and why the city implemented a foreign ownership tax on property purchases.CirrhosisDawg said:
