This website used to be composed of polite, but strong language letting you know how I felt about the current state of our country, city, and government. I offered direct, realistic paths towards actual change. But, none of us need that and the time for decorum and process ended when agents of a fascist state began patrolling our streets, gassing our neighbors, and kidnapping and killing us, while city council and state government offered empty words accompanied by zero action. City and state government hate you. They loathe us. They act in self-interest, and the actions that benefit us exist because they offer greater benefit to them.
Portland is the 28th most populated city in the most powerful country this world has ever seen, and the inaction by the mayor and city council betrays the importance of what is taking place here. Within months the president could illegally federalize our elections, and yet city government shuffles responsibility between departments to obscure inaction because helping us is secondary to helping themselves. They let corporate interests destroy our streets and set tax policy based on outdated economic ideas, and then feed you shit because you’re a shit eater that is used to eating shit.
I’m not running for city council to be an effective team player, I’m running to dismantle PPB, personally escort ICE agents to the county line, bleed every billion dollar company operating in this city, and be an unmovable wall between city council and Keith Wilson’s performative bullshit. The era of political collaboration is over, because this is where it gets us. Now is the time for people to physically destroy the things that are keeping them oppressed and to take by force what they are owed.
Portland and Oregon are not helpless inside the federal system. We have autonomy, agency, and legal authority to govern ourselves—and our elected representatives have abandoned that responsibility.
Federal hostility and overreach don’t land evenly. They fall hardest on marginalized communities—people of color, immigrants, LGBTQIA+ people, unhoused residents, disabled people, and everyone pushed to the edges. That harm is unacceptable on a foundational human level.
I’m a District 3 resident and a graduate student studying human rights. My work focuses on how power, law, and institutions harm people — and how those systems can be challenged rather than managed.
I believe in socialism because I believe people deserve dignity, safety, and material security by default — not as rewards for compliance. I believe in equity, not hollow equality, because treating unequal conditions the same only preserves injustice.
I’m not running to build a political career. I’m running because the institutions meant to protect people are failing — and silence from those in power is a choice I refuse to accept.
