    The exodus to Bellevue/Redmond/Kirkland over the next 5 years is gonna be massive.

    You're assuming that Marxism isn't going to spread into the Eastside
    It ain't going past Cle Elum, I can guaran-fucking-tee that.

    Spokane real estate market is HOT right now. Affordable houses are selling in about 3-6 days. Who do you think is buying? It's the same thing that happened to Seattle 40 years ago before the tech industry blew up. Californians and now liberal Seattleites looking to find a city in which to trade up in. You will lose a district at a time until you are the minority. Sad, but happening.
    In theory, yes.

    But those fucking pinkos are going to have a much harder tim politically transforming Eastern Washington than the Puget Sound. They may be buying real estate, but progressive shit ain’t gonna fly in Spokane or the Tri’s.

    Eventually, sure.gif, but it will be a long haul.

    Imagine what happened to the Cali fag on ‘Yellowstone!’

    I didn't want to wax on and on but I agree with you. It will take time. I was looking at the move to one, trade up and two, to have 10-15 years of not living in a political pressure cooker. Working at a Seattle suburb grocery store the last four months has been a real drag. Between the virus hot talk then BLM and now back to major virus hot talk I'm done. I just smile and nod my head to every person/coworker who feels the need to speak their mind. I figure Spokane would be a little less outraged by everything, all the time. A more measured response? Can people not buy a can of corn without stepping on a soapbox anymore? Can't they speak their mind on a hard core college football board like me? What's the world come to?
    People are dicks everywhere.

    Just depends on what flavor of dick is your preference.

    All of them. Obvi.

    The pinko commie stuff has a foothold in Spokane. There are a few in city council who are plugged in to Seattle Sawant housing ideas, etc. The State Senator majority leader is Sen. Billing from Spokane. He won his caucus vote to become majority leader by trading on far left stuff with Seattle area legislators. The entire state is infected.

    Welp, all I can say is that the peeps in Eastern WA will put their foot down and stamp the shit out when it becomes apparent, as opposed to complaining like a bunch of bitches and then voting back in the same shit bags.

    Spokane should be much more concerned about the actual Russians flooding their hoods.

    CHAZ soldiers all abandoned their posts and are back to mom and dad’s or living homeless by Seattle Center again. I don’t think there is an in-between option.

    I mean, with everything Seattle has going for it, you'd almost have to purposefully fuck it up. Which is exactly what she's trying to do.

    Jimminy Christmas she's a fucking buffoon. A dangerous one at that.

    She promotes free stuff for all. She’s not a buffoon, she knows most voters in her council district are buffoons.

    Change the Democrat mascot from a Donkey to Santa Claus because that’s The Left in 2020 and their voters don’t care. I want in on @HHusky and his early retirement, though.
    I think there are more moderate left-leaning people in Seattle than it appears. Like most view points, the loud ones get noticed. There's a whole swath of Seattleites that are reasonable non-commies who just have that northern European "mind your own business and don't be a loud mouth" ethos and they get drowned out by the radicals.

    I agree, though, that the younger ones - the kids in their 20s - are followers, and that's almost everywhere. The lessons of the failures of communism are lost because they don't make movies out of it anymore and because we don't teach economics and political economy to people who don't major in those areas. During my time, you couldn't avoid at least a superficial swipe at communism unless your head was buried in the sand. Wolverines!!!!!!!!!!
    Idk, you grew in era where people were fucking paranoid and horrified of communism/socialism to unhealthy levels.

    Tukwila is tanned, rested and ready. Moved ops there in '16 with zero regrets.

    An absolute embarrassment that she was re-elected. It's absolutely incredible.
    She represents her constituency. Puget sound has become a left wing militant shit hole.
    The Wobblies tried spreading it to Everett in 1916, with disappointing results. Time for a repeat?

    This. The problem shifted into high gear with the mass import of northern Californians In the tech industry. They brought with them a culture that strongly supports Marxist ideology marketed as progressive liberalism. Anywhere they go will be at risk of developing the same cancer.
    Can't blame it all on the Calis. Thousands of mini-Marxists from every college in the land have come to Seattle to form their progressive Utopia after their 4 years in Commie Re-Education Camps like University of Missouri, Wisconsin, Yale and Harvard.

    Gonzaga hired that ugly bitch Melissa Click from the U of Missouri protests, so the seed has been planted in Spokane as well.

    It's the colleges and universities for the dumb, with ratios of 17 Libs to 1 Con that are causing this, too.
