Someone brought a guillotine to a city council meeting in Salem, Oregon on July 27, 2026. Not a sign shaped like one. Not a drawing. According to community accounts and social media posts, an actual guillotine structure appeared at the protest outside Loucks Auditorium, where hundreds of residents had gathered to oppose a proposed multi-billion-dollar AI data center. Company representatives reportedly assessed the scene and left, citing safety concerns — though that detail hasn’t appeared in formal news coverage or official minutes.



Sounds more like a shitty resistance. You can’t behead the overlords with a prop.
I think it’s funnier that they felt unsafe around a prop. Let the symbolism sink in.
But you could grab the overlords and put them in the prop and try?
It might even hurt more that way!
Death by a thousand bludgeons?
Not in favor of murder, but suffering is a whole different thing!
