I suspect most Oregonians on this site, especially those living in the Portland area are familiar with Willamette Week the left of center weekly newspaper that serves the community. What you may not know is that the on-line edition has a comment section, much like DK’s. The reason I think many might not be aware of it is because it is dominated by right-wing trolls.
There are progressives like myself who try to push back, but not nearly enough of us. The MAGA crowd seems to dominate not only the creation of comments, but the rating of comments. It gives the appearance that the fascists’ beliefs are a lot more widely accepted than they are. Check out the comments of one of this week’s current stories here.
I’m really hoping that some of the good progressive kossacks can take some time out to follow the comments on WW political stories and respond to the right wing chatter that dominates them. Your help is needed. Your recs are also greatly appreciated in order to help get the word out on this situation.
Thanks for your help.
