Peter DrakeOne Thing Has Changed at Portland City Hall: The Socialists Are Setting the Agenda
😀🚲@peterdrake "Whether they realize it or not, this is the future many Portlanders voted for last fall." wweek clutching pearls at socialism
And 🤨 who represents a thin slice Doug "rather than a broad electoral coalition, represent a slice,” says Doug Moore, who ran a political action committee last fall that was set up by the Portland Metro Chamber."
@peterdrake "Zimmerman, a centrist", did the heritage foundation write this?
Michael Dexter@enobacon @peterdrake The messaging of “socialism/communism/reds” is due for replacement given how much baggage it carries.
@dexter @peterdrake to the people who have only known "capitalism" and "democracy" since about "1984", the term "socialism" doesn't have so much authoritarian baggage (and it's been working out great for cars, who are the happiest children in the US.) Not like Portland Business Association which had such a bad reputation that they changed their name to "Portland Metro Chamber [of Commerce, Definitely Not Just Owners of Defunct Skyscrapers]".
Weyoun 6@peterdrake WW fluffing corporate interests, as it always does.
