I’m glad you filed a complaint. I’m sorry but the way that women talks sounds illiterate to me. What happened to just speaking in plain English that everyone can understand. This new council doesn’t seem like any kind of improvement over the last. No wonder nothing changes.

Oh the new Council is much worse then the last. Hard to believe but true…3 are outright DSA Socialists.

Zounders! Incredible! Sorry, this happened to you Angela. These new councillors are a massive disappointment, and definitely not the talented people needed to resuscitate our dying city.

You might want to file a complaint through this State Agency.

Not sure you are going to get anywhere with the City! 😫 The State is VERY serious about ethics and public meetings laws! 🧡

Morillo is a prime example of why the architects of the new city charter created the grotesque "25-percent and you're in" scheme of electing city council members. And it's why a nutty local "Democratic Socialists" party sent four members to council--despite elections supposedly (wink-wink, nod-nod) being "nonpartisan."

No member of council is even vaguely interested in representing a majority of district voters--it would be political suicide to endanger the 25-percent of True Believers in any district.

On top of this, councilors are now not responding to constituents; and the city as a whole has locked-down any requests for documents.

This was engineered.

You voted for it.

You got it.

So sorry you have had to deal with this. Thank you for speaking up and filing complaints. The city Ombudsman won’t help you unfortunately… they are ideologically aligned with people like Morillo and act accordingly. Hopefully the State will be more supportive.

"Diablita" Morillo is reducing political discourse to middle school mean-girl level.

Her tone can be bossy and righteous and focused on certain marginalized groups. Maybe Morillo feels she can use social media like #47 and Melon Husk, er Elon Musk without oversight.

I'm fine with causing a different point of view. I'm not okay with allowing a story which she admitted she could not verify. I tried to verify the story and ilI could not. Same with this account. They used word of others that can not be verified. To allow and then send same story or again after finding it can't be verified allows hate.

At least a dozen of our followers on IG and X have verified this story with us. We are not giving you a refund.

X is a source... laughable at best.

Commenting continuously here on a post that appeared last week on a different platform and claiming we are comparable to drug dealers is borderline pathological behavior. We are blocking you from interacting with us from here on out. Get the psyche help you need, please.

What a weird word salad. Have you thought about taking a class on writing?

"To allow and then send same story or again after finding it can't be verified allows hate."

I can't tell what you are trying to say here. I hope you get help for your mental health issues and learn to write.

Nope, It's not my job nor am I being literally paid for my word salad. That salad is a healthy intake of a different perspective and it is grammatically correct BTW.

Word salad writing is often grammatically correct. Your post was confusing to the point of being meaningless. Writing classes are about clear and concise writing that the reader can easily understand. George Orwell dealt with this issue in his essay Politics and the English Language, which you can read on-line:

If you have not already , you need to join FIRE, The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. If your first amendment rights have been violated you, you need to let them know:

I need a refund. I've been active in this whole organization and because I pointed out that you guys were homophobic you wanted me to unsubscribe. I will unsubscribe when I get my refund.

Huh? Angela is definitely not homophobic.

the story was exactly that, homophobic. I tried to verify it and i could not. the only point to allow this to be posted is to allow hate towards gays.

Are you sure you're on the right page? I think you may be confusing PDX Real with another outlet.

You are defining something as being true without providing any evidence. Clearly there was no mention of sexual orientation in the post, yet you made up some weird story about it being "homophobic."

It was the call to the unemployment office.

What call to the unemployment office was in this article? Do you have any idea how crazy and confusing your comments are?

She is referencing a post last week on IG. She decided to follow us here to comment about this on a completely different article that has nothing to do with this post. It was basically a post showing how in Oregon when a person signs up for U/E benefits that the state asks you all sorts of invasive questions about one's sexual and gender proclivities. Greer claimed we were lying about this despite the fact that there are multiple videos of people showing that they do ask these questions. This individual attacked us with ad hominem on IG, so we muted her on there. Seeking more interaction with us, she came here to continue the harassment. I understand, it gets very confusing at times!
