People don’t know much about the commie/socialist history of the Seattle General Strike. But look it up. The strain of commie mentality is strong in this city.
I understand that way back in the 1920’s, some national politician called Washington state the “Soviet of Washington”.
Hey, I just looked it up and it was the 30’s:

Thanks for that. I have studied this particular area of Seattle extensively and have NEVER come across that. Fitting sadly. Also I was working downtown during the big WTO in 1999—now THAT was a scene to behold for how completely wrong directed these SJW are and were. Pure evil. Pure HATE for capitalism. SF ain’t got nothing on them. They are violent in Seattle.
