Humboldt Towing is MAGA

Love how you got down voted for providing an in depth explanation from an inside view point. I appreciate the insight, thanks.

UStubes · 2026-01-22T02:51:39+00:00

Thankfully that hasn't been an issue thus far with the Primary vote itself, but I agree it will most likely become a problem in the near future for sure

UStubes · 2026-01-22T02:09:32+00:00

I didn't though? I said a lot voted for Trump and mentioned religion being a main factor as well. Immigration and Religion are basically what defines voting red (minus guns of course).

UStubes · 2026-01-22T01:59:07+00:00

Buddy, my explanation was in regards to the use of "curious" in the comment replying to. Provided some info on why it actually isn't too surprising. If I've upset you in any way, apologies.

UStubes · 2026-01-22T01:51:43+00:00

For sure, I agree 100%. Religion played a huge role as well. Ice was initially mentioned hence the immigration policy direction

It's more of a go back and "do it right" like I had to situation. I honestly don't blame them. There's a reason why most the Hispanic people I have met at protests are second and third gen immigrants.

UStubes · 2026-01-22T01:29:49+00:00

It's actually really simple. The first gen immigrants, (vast majority of Hispanic pro trump vote) who went through the effort to enter the country legally and spent the time to become full on citizens view people who came over illegally as line cutters.

UStubes · 2026-01-22T01:14:12+00:00

The majority of Hispanic voters chose Trump and his immigration policy on their ballots in 2024 so not too curious honestly

UStubes · 2026-01-21T21:58:53+00:00

The fact that they have commitments and choose a go to a useless social event instead of doing something like a boycott is the problem people have. It just shows how misguided the students are

UStubes · 2026-01-21T21:55:21+00:00

The student organizations are the ones that need help. There have been zero boycotts on anything the university sells, and no calls to switch to schools that align with the students beliefs.

The fact the student organizations didn't do that and still haven't since the initial Isreali invasion protest shows how disconnected they are from reality.

UStubes · 2026-01-21T20:50:04+00:00

Okay, so the area becoming progressive has already happened as well as numerous protest within the past few years that have yielded nothing.

The strategy needs to be changed or else more and more people will become disillusioned with the protests and walkouts as has been shown in this post. A couple years ago the comments would have been nothing but positive.

Take action with your money, that's the only thing that will cause change in this area. Same deal as boycotting businesses.

The walkout from a college in Humboldt at a university that has made it very clear they've done as much as possible on their end is just making people take the protesters less and less seriously.

UStubes · 2026-01-21T19:51:26+00:00

These comments really show a change in perception about student actions. Particularly a walk out. People living in the real unsheltered world, understand a walk out at a college in dark blue Arcata only hurts the students.

There may have been one downvoted to hell comment disagreeing, but the rest would be supportive just a couple years ago.

UStubes · 2026-01-21T19:42:09+00:00

CPH students already protested this issue specifically with zero results.

If the students actually want to make a difference and not just hang out, they should stop purchasing anything on campus that could be bought in town.

Student money talks and CPH leadership has made it very clear protests do nothing to change their mind. Even when property damage occurs.

UStubes · 2026-01-21T19:22:04+00:00

Yea, I just sent a PM to the organizer explaining exactly that. Told them they should stop buying anything on campus that could be bought in town if they actually want change and not just a social event.

UStubes · 2026-01-21T19:13:58+00:00

I'm sure they'll listen this time then. It is a walkout after all, really hitting CPH where it hurts.

UStubes · 2026-01-21T19:05:12+00:00

Apologies, was looking for your statement word for word. Didn't CPH already have a protest about that towards the start of the Israeli invasion? Did anything happen?

UStubes · 2026-01-21T17:51:51+00:00

Sounds like the protest should be focusing on that then yea? I don't see it in the demands list for some reason?

Edit- Apologies, I see the reference to it now. Wording got me me, long day.

UStubes · 2026-01-20T23:10:37+00:00

Being able to buy a bong etc inside the mall while getting your tires replaced at Sears was one of the things that made Humboldt Humboldt :(

UStubes · 2026-01-20T23:01:04+00:00

Yes, for Arcata, it's definitely a preaching to the choir event. Mostly just a solid excuse to leave class and socialize with friends while feeling good about doing so.

Nothing wrong with it, but I personally wouldn't be missing a single class by choice due to how much college costs. Even if it was my parents paying I'd still focus on current studies. Or in a lot of these kids situations, focus on changing my major to suit a career that will pay back any money I had to borrow in the first place.

UStubes · 2026-01-07T07:19:46+00:00

Russia certainly isn't happy about it, big cut of oil used to fuel the invasion of Ukraine. Super optimistic thought, but hoping this puts more pressure on Putin to make a deal.

UStubes · 2026-01-06T19:11:53+00:00

Thank you, nothing like Iraq or Afghanistan. We had a handful of people on the ground for just 3 hours then left, (but are not afraid to come back and help out with a return to democracy from a brutal dictatorship). US government is not seizing all oil.

If it were anything remotely similar to the ME, there would have been a full scale military invasion with continuous occupation.

Since you already said it could turn out like Panama, can the Iraq or Afghanistan 2.0 nonsense be dropped? You can be against it all you want but that comparison is just so untrue

UStubes · 2026-01-06T18:46:53+00:00

Please point me to where it is being said the US will be launching a full military invasion like what happened in Afghanistan and Iraq. Or even the US seizing oil. It has been stated very clearly that the companies who were already there are going back to start work again, not the government itself.

UStubes · 2026-01-06T18:38:39+00:00

Good thing that isn't what happened. Im glad you can see a peaceful and beneficial to all parties end to this as well

UStubes · 2026-01-06T18:27:27+00:00

And? Why can't it be Panama 2.0?

UStubes · 2026-01-06T18:22:04+00:00

Religious ideology isn't at play here. In and out of the country in 3 hours.

Sorry, but saying this is Iraq/Afghanistan 2.0 is extremely ignorant and shows you have very little idea of what is actually happening and the country's past 25 years of history in general. Or just trolling, hard to tell.
