I used to view Portland through the lens of Portlandia.
A bit ridiculous, politically too liberal, but an artsy quirky place that contributed to the cultural vibrancy of America. There should be places like Portland where quirky liberal people should be able to let their freak flag, even if I wouldn’t want to live there. Not every place has to be Middle America where peole are hard working, mostly more virtuous, but much less quirky.
I admit, I find that attractive as a place to visit and make fun of. At least the idea of it.
The problem with such places is that liberals ruin everything in the end, and it takes them decades to face the fact and elect a mayor who cleans thing up temporarily.
That hasn’t happened yet in Portland. It has become a literal s**thole.
