    80s?

    Southern Washington and the majority of Oregon were hot spots for white supremacist “utopia” migration dating back to before the Civil Rights movement.

    As a white dude, it’s fucking scary visiting some of those small towns in both states. My wife will even suggest not going to areas due research she’s done to verify that were not stepping into a social trap.

      I was coming back from Eastern Oregon and stopped for lunch in Umatilla:

      Bar food, fine, enough to get back on the road. Hit the mens room on the way out.

      I shit you not, white power graffiti all over the bathroom. 1" from the floor to 1" from the ceiling.

      That’s not an accident.
