    I’m pretty sure BLM razed Chicago to the ground a couple years ago. Not sure why folks who used to live in the area keep pretending it isn’t a smoking crater.

      As someone in Seattle during CHOP/CHAZ, if it’s anything like that, you and everyone saying ‘raised to the ground’ is full of shit.

          Unfortunately, in my experience, people say it with a straight face! My family from the South was in a tizzy and I was like “its only a block and the people who started it got chased out by small gangs and groups who saw an opportunity and used violence. No one is being held hostage!”

          Ironically, they would have opposed any financial relief for the area, too. -_-
