There are two kinds of people in the Puget Sound region. The kind who catch a good view of Mount Rainier and think, "Damn! That's a fucking mountain." And the kind who catch a good view of Mount Rainier and think, "That fucking mountain's gonna kill us all one day."
Team USA came into the #WBC embracing the very worst version of us. Paul Skenes: "We're America, we've got to assert our dominance over everybody else. That's what we do." Fuck that. And give me Geno Suarez' pure baseball spirit over your militaristic macho imperial bullshit any day!

#ICEOut Downtown Seattle targeting Target for their complicity with the mass abduction of our neighbors and the occupation of our cities.
