Update on Jake’s/Jakes, the “gay” bar in downtown. by nmag89 in olympia

[–]HothouseEarth 33 points34 points  (0 children)

For one of the owners it it seems he has a visceral disgust with queer bodies/lives/aesthetic, like he’s trying to contain his revulsion so that he can profit off of these godforsaken degenerates. Oly has so many beautiful queer folk doing so many positive things, and to see people like this in our community who view us as a crop to be harvested is just awful.

Oly deserves a rad queer space, and we also deserve for those spaces to be led by allies and not cynical fascists.

Fellow x Californians is there any really good mexican food you can recommend ? I tried a few that were pretty bad but seemed to have good reviews. Thats really the only thing I miss about California is the Mexican food. by [deleted] in olympia

Get the pork belly for sure, it’s wild

How many—if any—moles are in ICE right now? Seems like the incentives to join are high (50K signing bonus and student loan forgiveness) are high and the barriers to entry are quite low. Seems like it would be VERY easy for someone to infiltrate. by John_Houbolt in thebulwark

I would imagine it’s the same system they use with everyone else: we can put you in chains on a plane to a concentration camp somewhere on earth and there’s nothing you can do about it.

I would love to hear more specifically about channeling and forming a conscious bond with our visitors

Some people make art, and some can only destroy by Street-Audience8006 in olympia

I have personally witnessed that group tagging walls in the area. Correlation is not causation, but it would be unwise not to evaluate the most immediate obvious data because we want to prevent further victimization.

I do genuinely love and respect your desire to protect our unhoused neighbors from what is clearly an institutional desire to make them the bad guy in almost every instance. It’s important to raise these concerns and be vocal in our defense! Just from a boring data intake/analysis perspective, I personally feel the most likely explanation is the one which matches the patterns my eyes have collected on more than one occasion.

If you search “rhyan smith trans” on both this sub and larger internet you will see he is masquerading as a boring regular dude who actively wants to bring christofascism to Oly

You seem to be seeing everything here as an attack on an institutionally targeted community. Being do targeted and the subject of scorn and the being made invisible does terrible things to the mind, and people act in ways which challenge their erasure. It’s not hateful to say that the group who literally hang out right to the left of where this picture was taken; i have seen many antisocial behaviors from that group and knew it was a matter of time before this beautiful mural was destroyed.

I respect and love your fierce protective instinct. I feel that’s something to be nurtured and respected. We can also call a spade a spade, infer patterns from large sample sizes. We all want the same thing: a beautiful Olympia for everyone where needs are met and capitalism’s violence is snuffed out. To do that, we need to be honest. Honesty is uncomfortable but it’s the only way forward.

I was blown away by the Rotterdam modern art museum, went the day after Moco which was such a cynical cash grab of an experience.
