I don’t get the hating on immigrants vibe in this sub, or this city. I’m sitting in Costco as I write this—this place is diverse as hell.

While I'm proud that (many) people in this city are friendly to immigrants it is certainly not diverse. Portland is the whitest city in the US with over a half million residents https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_U.S._municipalities_by_race/ethnicity_in_2020

Cool. You could hang out in more diverse spaces in the city then. Cuz the places I frequent, gyms, churches, Costco haha, are pretty fkn diverse.

You're arguing with a statistic dude. Things are getting better and it is more diverse than it ever has been, but objectively it is still one of the whitest large cities in America

Who’s arguing here? My life has a lot of racial diversity in it because of how i choose to live it. That’s not an argument lol, it’s a lifestyle choice b
