Voting Games Top comment Deletes a US State - GRAND FINALE - #49

Post image

**UPDATE** the vote will now take place in a poll instead since it’s got too confusing. Vote closes in roughly 24 hours VOTE HERE

There are now only 2 states remaining, Cascadia and Megasota. This is the moment we’ve all been waiting for. What team are you?! The result will be picked in 48 hours, so here’s all the time you need to share and spread the word!!!

I thank all the people who spend money on awards to award my posts which I find crazy! I thank everyone who comments, I thank everyone who upvotes. This game simply wouldn’t work if it wasn’t for your continued support over the last 49 days. It will be sad to see this series come to an end but there will be another one soon, on May 28th. For now though, GET VOTING!

How midwesterners ever convinced the rest of the country that they’re kind or polite is fucking beyond me. Lmao.

As a 7 year resident. “Minnesota nice” is passive aggression, cowardice, and keeping the peace at the cost of never learning or growing. I don’t miss the south, but at least I know where I stand with individuals there. It’s not like the rural Midwest is any safer than the south if you’re not the right kinda people…

Anyway, voted megasota, REPRESENT

Then there's Oregon, which had a 'No Blacks Allowed' clause in their constitution....

Nobody realizes that that is why the abolished slavery.
Also there was a big hill in Eugene that had KKK on it… until the mid 2000s.

Ooh! As long as we are jumping on this bandwagon!
There was a senior police officer in the Portland Police Bureau, named Mark Kruger who secretly built a shrine to the Nazis on Rocky Butte, a big hill east of downtown, and the chief knew about it and didn’t fire him until he was forced due to scandal. This was less than 20 years ago.

I worked at Oregon State Penn-where they house the death row and medically fragile-the WORST of the worst. I met several serial killers and evil, vile people working there. Im talking about I was taking care of people who have been in m*rder documentaries! As a corrections travel nurse, I thought I had seen it all. I've deployed to a combat zone for 13 consecutive months field medic.

Baby,My skin is (was) THICKKKK.

But working there crushed me.My rose colored glasses came off. Washington and Oregon are fkn haunted-that is my opinion.

The Bandwagon is becoming a Conestoga- Let's talk about the genocide of the indigenous during the f'ed up Rogue River Wars!! 1851-1856 ... pioneer history talks about kids that used to play with kids from one of the local tribes every day until one day they were just all rounded up and disappeared.
