👀 In response to actions by Cascadia Active Club Activists, Talia Estes once again took to the internet to express her frustration with Nationalist organizing in Elmonica Beaverton. She recorded a video of herself attempting to "educate" her comrades about Patriot Front, yet all she really accomplished was poorly reciting a couple surface level sentences off a Wikipedia article. Her own personal photos of stickers placed by Cascadia Active Club Activists were used as examples of "propaganda" placed around the neighborhood. Throughout her video, she expressed very limited understanding of how Nationalist organizations operate and what they believe. She claimed without evidence that the materials placed by Activists directly attacked women and people of color despite no such materials having ever been placed by Cascadia Active Club or WLM OR. Additionally she claimed that the purpose of propaganda drops was to "recruit conservatives" who may align with the ideology as well as people who are "angry at women, angry at the world" with no proof to either claim. By far her strangest claim was her acknowledgement that anti-drug, anti-war, and anti-state messages sound appealing, but she immediately concluded that those slogans are just "hooks" to get people involved and implied that we don't actually believe the words on our stickers. Rest assured Cascadia Active Club remains strongly committed to all ideological points made on our promotional materials and no tiktok rant by an infantile middle-aged Antifa soccer mom will affect our actions in the area.
