Someone brought a guillotine to a city council meeting in Salem, Oregon on July 27, 2026. Not a sign shaped like one. Not a drawing. According to community accounts and social media posts, an actual guillotine structure appeared at the protest outside Loucks Auditorium, where hundreds of residents had gathered to oppose a proposed multi-billion-dollar AI data center. Company representatives reportedly assessed the scene and left, citing safety concerns — though that detail hasn’t appeared in formal news coverage or official minutes.
So do the citizens…
That’s why they brought a fucking guillotine.
Like, this is the result of all the shit they’re pulling with bribing politicians and having them arrest anyone who talks back at meetings.
People aren’t just going to lay down and take, at a certain point when the 0.01% keep violating the social contract, everyone else adapts to the new reality
It’s like a little kid who cheats at Monopoly and loves the game, nothing can make them stop cheating and they always insistnon playing.
You fix that by cheating back just as hard, ruin the kids game, and teach them that if everyone plays by the rules we all have fun.
If a few refuse the rules, everyone else refuses the game.
Short of Monopoly ever being a fun game, I agree. Push people far enough, and they’ll push back.
