Why isn’t the news reporting on Chicago’s version of the CHAZ?

Just so people know... Sawant is the fucking worst. Absolute joke of a politician. I feel sorry for the people she represents that didn’t vote for her.
An enigma of a man shaped hole in the wall between reality and the soul of the devil.

to decide to blame capitalism tells you everything you need to know

Durkan calling for Sawant’s head is pretty great

This incident happened less than a mile away from CHAZ last week:
I saw the heartwarming video footage today of a black guy and a white guy working in harmony together to break into the lobby of an apartment building and steal packages at 5:30 in the morning.

"Ultimately, the problem of violence—and a dangerously naive understanding of policing—doomed the CHAZ. Over its 24-day history, the autonomous zone saw two gun homicides and four additional shooting victims. All the identified victims were black men—precisely the demographic for whom the CHAZ had claimed to offer protection. In the absence of a legitimate police force, armed criminal gangs and untrained anarchist paramilitaries filled the void. Almost every night, gunshots rang through the streets. The first homicide victim was killed in an outburst of gang violence; the second, reportedly unarmed and joyriding in a stolen car, was gunned down by the “CHAZ security force.”

Rank the Autonomous Zones:
- Paris Commune (1871) - Somalia - CHAZ

At least 45 people were arrested on charges of assaulting officers, obstruction and failure to disperse, police said. Twenty-one officers have been injured from having projectiles thrown at them, according to police. Most officers were able to return to duty, the department's Twitter said. One officer was hospitalized with a leg injury caused by an explosive.
