Mayor Cheryl Selby of Olympia, Washington just got her consciousness raised. Her hometown newspaper, The Olympian, reported last Friday: On Friday night, two groups converged in downtown Olympia, and some became destructive, burning flags, smashing windows, and spray painting businesses and Olympia Mayor Cheryl Selby’s home.

Selby and her family were not home last night, but her neighbors began texting her when the protesters arrived at her house.

“I’m really trying to process this,” she told The Olympian over the phone Saturday. “It’s like domestic terrorism. It’s unfair.

“It hurts when you’re giving so much to your community,” she said

This is why I think she set this up herself. Too little damage for it to be believable.

Sigh. There will never be a short supply of useful idiots. What they never realize is they're the first to go, they always are.

As well it should be...

These middle-class intellectuals were actually ridiculed and held in contempt by the Bolsheviks as fools weaving their own hangman’s rope. Usually, these well-meaning dupes were the first ones shot as the Bolsheviks rolled over Eastern Europe behind the Iron Curtin (1946-1990). Having helped the Reds disarm the civilian population, they were easy to round up and summarily execute.

-- Supposedly said by Solzhenitsyn.

Graffiti is nothing compared to businesses being looted and suffering broken windows. She was lucky.

If successful, the riot leaders and those not suited for the struggle will be too dangerous and will get the Robespierre treatment.

The video has it all, including the moron reporter with his face mask, outside, on a deserted sidewalk. I cannot believe how stupid (or maybe feckless is more accurate) so many people are...

Her slogan should be:

Wow...and it’s easy to see how this could play out in that manner...idiots in charge, disarm the public, make sure everyone is “woke”, revolution begins, idiots are first ones “removed” by the revolution...

and the educated elites who supported the Mao communist revolution were scooping shit in the country side for reeducation, if they weren’t killed.

Reporter got support staff...is not really alone...and is some sort of “aware message bearer” so cant give the dumber of the viewers any idea that one can go without a mask.
Either way....mayor is unwoke to the downside of human nature.
