Those riots were funding and pushed by powerful interests for clear political purposes (and terrorism). They probably didn’t expect the level of backlash against them, which goes a long way toward explaining why they have lost much of their utility for the time being.
As someone who lives near Portland (yes, THAT Portland) I was surprised about the lack of rioting. Nothing made the news despite burning my ballot box. Not sure if they are all rioted out, or are accepting defeat on TikTok than the streets. I do hope this cultural rebellion against our values subsides. I'd like to be able to trust my neighbor again and not see my communities destroyed.
