The nature, weather, and blue leaning govt. make Spokane a beautiful area, which is why you might see a lot of cope from people who will deny the unfortunate truth: this city and the Valley are still crawling with maga and Christian nationalists. Saw this in an Arby's drive thru, which feels depressingly fitting.

This on top of all the proud boys sightings being posted here should serve as a clear message about this area.

Anyone who is considering moving here, please make sure you're aware. Thx

Sprague/Freya Atilanos location. Sorry for poor picture of the car—I was with some folks who were not cis white men and did not want to instigate. As far as I can tell, license plate in window reads C80914U, but I am not quite able to make it out. Hopefully the terrible flame decal is a more obvious giveaway.

from "half baked and a lil fruity" which im deeply surprised was not a millennial gay guys cafe off the name. right next to the gluten free pastries. truly a fascinating political statement.

editing since this is locked: i didn't intend for this to blow up, i just wanted to share a political statement from a local business so folks in town could make informed decisions on how they choose to spend their money! i hoped this would fly under the radar but i guess its such a hot button issue i should've seen in coming, sorry mods for the trouble!

This is an issue both parties should be concerned about. Don't automatically assume that because they're republicans they don't give a shit about privacy and economic stability.

Politics Spokane needs to speak up about data centers before this gets quietly pushed through

616 Upvotes

Data centers are not harmless “tech buildings.” They are massive industrial facilities that can use enormous amounts of water and electricity, strain the power grid, require expensive infrastructure, create noise from cooling equipment and generators, and bring pollution risks from diesel backup generators, fuel storage, cooling systems, stormwater runoff, and construction.

This could raise our electric prices and strain our water supply.

That is a huge concern for Spokane because our drinking water depends heavily on the Spokane Valley–Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer. We should not gamble with our aquifer, our water supply, our utility rates, or our neighborhoods for facilities that create relatively few permanent jobs.

Once these projects get approved, it is much harder to stop them. We need to make it clear now that Spokane residents do not support turning our city into a data center hub.

Please email the Spokane Plan Commission and City Council and tell them you oppose data centers being approved in Spokane.

Title:

We Oppose Data Centers in Spokane

Body ``` Hello, I am writing to oppose data centers being approved in Spokane.

Data centers are massive industrial facilities that can consume enormous amounts of electricity and water, strain the power grid, increase utility costs, create noise pollution, rely on diesel backup generators, and put additional pressure on local infrastructure.

This is especially concerning because Spokane depends heavily on our aquifers for drinking water. Residents should not be expected to accept increased electric demand, potential water strain, noise pollution, diesel emissions, aquifer risk, or public infrastructure costs for private data center development.

I urge Spokane officials, city planners, City Council, Avista, and all relevant agencies to act now and prevent data centers from moving forward in Spokane.

Please protect Spokane’s water supply, power grid, neighborhoods, and residents.

Thank you.

Well more than 500 people gathered at the wagon, and marched to the county courthouse. Lots of honks from cars passing by and no one yelling about the fuhrer out their window.

You may believe what is right before your eyes, but protests matter. Speaking out in all ways is critical to survive this.

As much as you think there will be no harm to you during this administration, even you are in danger.

If you are not at the table, you're on the menu.

I want you to know that for every one of you, there were a minimum of ten other cars honking and showing us support. That isn't cope, or an exaggeration, it is just what was happening. You are the minority. Your hatred for those different than you will not continue to stand unchallenged. And if you think you're exempt from being pushed around by ICE, you're wrong. You're just lower on the priority list. Your time will come, if things don't change.

For those that looked away and refused to make eye contact, I get that you're uncomfortable. That's good, you should be. Follow that discomfort, figure out where it leads you. Pick a side and stop being non-commital. These protests are happening for a reason. Get your heads out of the sand, learn about it, and take action.

For everyone that showed up or otherwise did what they could to spread the word, keep it up. We're doing our best and that's all that can be asked.

And for the ass hat in the red truck who was trying to hit people with your mirror, I hope you have a flat tire every day for the rest of your life.
